Your feelings on the subject..
MatterCat
I find my abillities to affect myself in some ways derives from an certain
emotional state. My passions (strong feelings) tend to be geared twords
my other form. Whenever I feel "high" on an emotion my willingness to
retain human shape is tried to it's limit. Though strangely enough, there
are times when I am completely relaxed and again wish to shed humanity.
The question I ask then is this: Is there a specific emotional state that
is connected to your shifting? I have noticed many seem to do it when
they are angry, some when they are excited in any manner, others seem to
be able to do it on command without emotion.
To me, it seems my emotional side is very much a part of my change.
Whereas I can use reason to analyze what I am going through, it seems to
be only secondary.
Your emotional friend,

, Okay, the answer here would have to be a qualified yes. Usually my
mental/spiritual shifts occur under conditions of either extreme stress, or
else the other end of the spectrum, when I am very much at peace. But NOT
always (hence the "qualified" ;) ). It has been known to occur with
absolutely no warning or indication it was coming as well, which can really
throw you if the timing is off (like in the middle of a class presentation
when your mind suddenly decides to go catlike in the mountains for 45 seconds
leaving you standing there blank as far as anyone can tell:>) for where you
are.
Anyone else?

There doesn't seem to be. Of the very few times that I have felt
"shifted" in any way, most were at odd unexpected moments during the
course of a normal day... a couple of times at work, once in bed when I
stretched just after waking up, once in a Dream, once during sex, and once
sitting in front of the keyboard talking to someone on IRC. There doesn't
seem to be any common thread at all: waking/sleeping, excited/relaxed,
alone/in company... it just happens. I can call it up to some extent if I
concentrate hard, but that's nowhere near as powerful as the times when it
happens spontaneously.

Just once? Hmmm... sounds weird to me.

Well...erm...I've done it more than once during sex. But then again, I
shift on anything really emotional. :)

I looked you up in a coworker's pocket atlas. You live approximately
2,100 miles from me. Let me know when windigowak can sprout wings and
I'll consider answering that. ;)

I hope you celebrated appropriately. <grin>
