i have a question about shapeshifters?

i know that there's everything in this world but i never tought that shapeshifting would be possible but three weeks ago i was in the caribbean to be specific i was in dominican republic and this guy who was helping me get around told of this guy Haiti who did voodoo and could shapeshift, and i tought he was crazy about the shapeshifting part butwhen we got to the guy he was killing a chicken and i wasn't really supposed to go i was just curious to see him. And i stayed outside the rest of the time and before leaving the guy said he would visit me. And later that night there was this kind of wolf, which aren't supposed to be in that section of the island, and he was in my room in the hotel i was staying and then i think he was talking to me like a real person but i was ready to pass out and he was talking in french or haitian and just understood parts of it. Then he just jumped out through the window and was nowhere to be found i searched everywhere. could this be the shapeshifter/voodoo guy?

If you don't know about this don't answer.

    Even if this was just a dream, it's possible that there was some shape-shifting involved. There are people (not just people who practice Voodoo) who believe they can leave their bodies at night and travel through the astral plane in the form of wolves or other animals. This is a belief that is very old, and still exists today.

    Look up information on the Benandanti and the Lycian Tradition of Wicca. Here are a couple of links:

    the closest you will exchange into to being a shapeshifter so a techniques as i comprehend, is thru video games which permit you create a character this is a shapeshifter - alongside with a druid in international of warcraft, different strategies contain dreaming of being a shapeshifter or having a psychological ailment which permits you to suspect which you're certainly a shapeshifter, in spite of the certainty which you would be able to save on believing which you would be able to someway exchange right into a shapeshifter if that's what makes you happy, goodluck! :)

    I hope you are still on here, listen, what you saw was real and don't let anybody ever tell you anything different, we all have this power, god is real, don't ever let anyone convince you otherwise, even if u aren't religious, I want to say the Bible says "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE" do not let people without an understanding tell you otherwise, because I was listening to dick Gregory speak about shapeshifters in Haiti and I searched it up on google, and your experience helped me realize it is true and anything is possible

    Sounds like a good trip man.

    But jokes aside, I suggest you listen to maria. It's the newest craze. I also suggest you study and imitate the dog. It's a lot of fun. You get to lick your own balls, sniff butts, poop everywhere, chase your tail like an idiot, eat all sorts of crap from thrash cans, running away from dog catchers etc.

    Or maybe the salmon fish. Once you're ready for the transformation, submerge yourself underwater and wait for it to happen. When you get the need for oxygen after about a minute, don't come out, that's the lungs disappearing. Just remain still underwater, soon after that the gills will appear.

  • Well, I truly cannot say that shapeshifting isn't real.

    To some religions, (or spiritual practices) shapeshifting is used throughout the mind, and the astral projection phase, that causes one to remember and to feel the power of an animal.

    A lot of Native Americans do it, (animals like the Wolf, Snake, Dragon ... etc)

    Here's a link that teaches more about the spiritual purpose of shapeshifting. It is located in the sources.

    What many voodo people do is dangerous and be aware but don't let it ruin your trip. One of three things happened. You had a terrible nightmare. You sniffed some weird like powder they have in their shacks or He is a real shapeshifter. Be careful .

    Why do you wish to do this my child? It is difficult but I will tell you. First you must select your animal. Study it, learn the way it behaves, the way it eats, even how it looks at things. Once you bond with the animal you will enter a state of mind also know as "one with the animal". When this happens your mind is the mind of that animal. For a physical change you will have to live like the animal such as eating what it prefers to eat and sleeping on the floor. After a while you will not see the change but you will be in that beast's body. If you still have questions E-mail me.

  • Listen to real science, real medical fact, real truth. Even if human and wolf DNA could be spliced, there are many factors which make any kind of shapeshifting an absolute impossibility.

    1. Werewolves do not exist, except as a delusion (analogous to the m-shift). There is not one single humanoid being on this planet who can change his shape in ANY manner similiar to the legends of lycanthropy. There is absolutely NO concrete evidence at all of any such creature, and there is exhaustive scientific and medical facts as to why they do not exist, and could never exist:

    2. There are no "potions" or "edibles" that can change you into anything. I have no doubt that some delusional person is going to tell you to consume wolfsbane, which is aconite, a deadly poison. There are no "bloodlines" - genetic werewolves do not exist.

    3. The legendary shapeshifting (new terminology is the pseudo term p-shift) would require a miraculous growth and loss of bone and bone

    structure as the skeleton would reshape itself, a rearrangement of internal

    organs and associated connective tissue, nervous pathways, and blood vessels -

    requiring "movement" of these structure through deep tissue and muscle, a

    complete repatterning of the entire DNA code - systemwide - a thickening of the

    dermis and a spontaneous growth of fur from hair follicles generated on the

    spot, a reallocation of body mass and spontaneous generation of body tissue, and

    last but not least, a loss of brain tissue as the brain cavity "shrunk" to the

    dimensions of the wolf cranium.

    4. When you lose brain tissue, it is like a VHS tape being erased - any data or

    associative functions stored there are gone for good - like in a stroke or TIA

    (transient ischemic attack). A werewolf able to transform would (if he could)

    return to human form suffering from severe retardation, and would be a drooling

    idiot at best and a homicidal, animalistic killer at worst.

    5. The caloric expenditure necessary to fuel such a transformation is so high it is

    impossible - the human body (at its full size) cannot ingest that much food

    during one digestive cycle to power such a change. Also, the pain involved would

    be so excruciating that the system itself would begin to shut down, and blood

    pressure and heart rate would go so sky high that the cardiac muscle would

    rupture and the "werewolf" would die from a cardiac hemmorhage.

    6. The idea that the state of being a werewolf is somehow transmitted by a bite

    suggests a retrovirus, similiar to AIDS, that could rewrite the DNA code of its

    host. This "retrovirus" would have to be incredibly strong, and would be

    detectable by any form of bloodwork performed on the individual. If, like AIDS,

    it would be resistant to all but a lethal cocktail of drugs designed to kill the

    virus, then we would also see congenital transmission among children from their

    parents. As no hospital is reporting a strange new retrovirus that causes its

    victims to change shape, we can therefore assume with a good deal of confidence

    that such a retrovirus does not exist.

    7. There are no separate races of humanoids on this planet - by now they would have interbred with "regular" humans and we'd all be the same species anyway. The idea that a secret, parallel race exists alongside us, engaging in controlled breeding to "keep the bloodline pure" is delusional in the extreme.

    8. The concept of werewolves being shapechanging, or humanoid wolves, is really absurd - wolves are descended from prehistoric canine creatures, the most famous example of which was the dire wolf. Humans are descended from upright, bipedal hominids. Nature (as in natural selection) "engineered" wolves and humans to be two totally different species, with different specializations and physical construction. Sure, there are "shapechanging" animals, such as maggots and caterpillars, but they can only change once, and can never revert to their original form. Such changes occur gradually, over a prolonged period. In order for a humanoid being to change into a wolf - or vice versa - it would require months of physical changes, and the creature would be in far too much pain to move, let alone feed. Soon the requirements of nutrition would slow the transformation down as the creature would no longer have the energy to fuel the change. It would waste away and die from starvation.

    9. ANYONE who tells you such things are real is either living in a fantasy, lying through their teeth, or are caught up in a delusion bordering on mental illness. The real danger lies in people who will tell you whatever you want to hear in order to get close enough to hurt you, such as pedophiles, rapists, and murderers - the only real monsters on our planet, and giving out your real location information is just asking for trouble.

    why were you ready to pass out? That would probably explain everything.
