The other kin community, as a community, as pretty new. And like all new communities there's not a lot of consensus about much of anything. The most consensus I think I've seen among us in all the different places I've visited is "We don't all believe the same thing." This always seemed a bit silly to me. Yes, There is a wide variety of personal realities and beliefs. What I call red and you call red might not even be the same color . There's no way at any time to verify that the reality that we're sharing is exactly the same. The rules were even updated recently here to reflect this very important fact. We have individual experiences and individual memories. On the other hand, there are few delights more in this world for me personally than finding someone with a shared memory. Explaining that when a certain entity touches me it always feels cold on my skin and to hear someone else say "yes, me too!" Or talking about how an angel looked, conversations we had. This is the good stuff. This is the stuff that builds our community. We need the touchstone of what's common among us to dig our roots into. So let's build that now. This post is the master post for terms, events, places, people, entities, and so on that are not common. We need to discuss our understanding of these things and begin to come to some consensus. Who wants to go first?

I'm not sure if I understand what we have to do. So we just write down our beliefs regarding different matters on the site? What particular matter subject do you want us to form a consensus on? Maybe write a list of specific topics and I'll gladly reply.

Great question. Hmm.
Let's start with cosmology. What is the world, how does the world work. If we could come to some basic consensus in the other kin/magical human community I think that would leap us forward and probably the rest of the world too, which is looking for this basis to also understand who we are, where we come from and where we're going.
What are your feelings, experiences or memories on how many realms there are? This is a fuzzy area for a lot of kin. Let's end the fuzziness. We have to start declaring some quantitative values. They can always be corrected later.
By realms, I'm thinking discrete planes of existence where some aware life exist. Like for me, nature spirits are very aware and have their own communities and so on. Angels are very aware and have they own will power and so on (I use angels like Shadow here and not as in the new age love and light beings that guide lightworkers). I've identified about 5 realms. A realm of darkness/demonic energies (not absolutely good or evil), a realm of light/angelics (same), a nature spirit realm, the human realm, and a fifth realm that I don't understand and maybe can't with this human body but feel is there.
