Do you mean truly turn into an actual wolf, with all the abilities, tendencies, instincts, etc.? Were you referring to an incident in particular or just the concept?

Kin folk are people who can turn into animals etc... What do you recon, insane or legit Well , the term kin folk , to my knowledge means bilogical family memebers. (if I am wrong I am sure you will correct me) Now if you consider the posibility that we are all descended from the gods/aliens who seeded this planet. and that they all had abilities of the mind that we cannot imagine , including shape shifting or the mental ability to rearrange their own meleculiar structure, then I would think there would be reason to believe that the possiblity is legit Now if you asking if anyone has the mental abilities to do this now, I would say that if they do then they are hiding it very well cause if they didnt they would be insane with people in the world who have no tolerance for others or their ideas or their beliefs.

Evidently it's the women who practice magic and such, and the men tend to be more "hands on" in their varrious philosophies.

This is a topic im not very sure on. There doesent seem to be anyone around today who can do anything like that. Although there are accounts of shamans and such taking the shape of birds or dogs.
I always read that humans only use a fraction of their full potential physically and mentally. Perhaps if these hidden potentials and powers where unlocked there may be some shapeshifting capabilities hidden within us.

Well, in Cherokee belief, the "shapeshifter" does not change shape, but instead, the astral body takes control of the animal body (with permission) for the peroid of time needed to fulfill a task (or whatever). For instance, if you wanted to do some aerial reccon for some reason, you would ask Eagle for permission to control his body for the length of time needed. (Moonwind here on Sojrn's computer)

(Moonwind here on Sojrn's computer) About 5 or 6 years ago, during a light doze, I was seeing through a wolf's eyes as it ran through a wooded area on the chase with another wolf, it was a vey intense experience. everything looked like I was looking through night vision goggles, I knew it was a wolf's eyes I was seeing through due to the level at which I was seeing the trees all around and the wolf in front of me. and it wasnt a dream because, I could still hear the fan going in my room and my ex husband typing on the computer so I am inclined to agree at the moment that most shape shifting is done on an astral level, but I do believe that , if we had the complete use or our mental abilities, that real shape shifting would be possible and I believe it was possible to the ancients
