Hey, I’m seeing a lot of pendulum readings in the ‘kin tags recently, so - please remember that pendulum readings from another person are extremely unreliable for something that personal, especially if the person doesn’t know you at all. This is because of how pendulums work: they function off of the reader’s subconscious to give a yes/no answer. If the reader doesn’t know anything about you, their subconscious has no way to guide the pendulum to be accurate. (Doing pendulum readings for yourself is probably more accurate, but I still wouldn’t rely on it 100%.)
Instead of pendulum readings, I suggest focusing on tarot readings more if you really want guidance in a divinatory sense. Why is tarot better?
1) Tarot relies on both the reader and the querent. The querent also affects the interpretation of the reading, especially if the “textbook meanings” or (even better) pictures of the cards are provided. Instead of the reader’s subconscious being the only one with input as in pendulum readings, tarot readings get input from your subconscious (and conscious) as well, making them more reliable.
2) Tarot is more nuanced. Pendulums by their nature give very simple answers - usually just yes/no or between a few choices. There’s no nuance or detail to them. With something as complicated as otherkinity, this can cause problems. Even a very brief two- or three-card tarot reading (even just a one-card tarot reading, really) provides more detail and insight than a simple yes/no answer. The tarot can tell you “well, this label might fit your experiences, but your experiences are actually more likely to be caused by something else” or “it really doesn’t matter at this moment and you’re obsessing over it so you need to take a step back before you come back to this question” or “you had a past life as this creature but its effect on this life probably isn’t enough to warrant calling yourself otherkin,” all of which are more nuanced and insightful answers than “yes,” “no,” or even “maybe.”
Take my words with a grain of salt, of course - do your own research - but please don’t immediately jump to “this person can tell me what I am” and leave it at that without further thought or introspection. No one can tell you what you are except you.
Thanks for reading!

To all distinguished and admittedly unorthodox persons of science, medicine, and engineering:
really, to any strange scientist, mad doctor, inventive engineer, etc.
we offer you a server. a server for fictives and kin alike. we will take your moral dubiousness, your unorthodox methods of research, your inhumane experiments, and we will accept them, for we are one in the same.
that is to say: if you were a scientist in any way and you are a few puppies short of a petshop, this server is for you. if you have any questions, feel free to ask. otherwise…
>>The door is open, come on in.<<

to the mentally ill ‘kin:
to all the otherkin struggling with mental illness/trauma/etc:
i trust you. i trust that you know yourself better than i do. you say your identity isn’t a result of whatever mental illness you have? i believe you. you say you don’t know what causes your otherkinity? that’s ok, i still believe what you tell me.
as long as you aren’t spreading misinformation, i will take your words at face value. i don’t see a reason to doubt mentally ill ‘kin since I know that they have a right to their own experiences and existences.
if you experience things that lead you to believe you are otherkin, you are otherkin.
