My username is:
Yue-Tala Tallyn
My reason for joining is:
I thought I was the only one who seemed to be able to talk to an animal whenever I needed to. I'm not gonna ditch you all now that I've found you! :3 I want to talk about my SA and other's SAs, and help others where I can!
Do I have a spirit animal and, if so, what is it?:
Yes, and proud! She's a wolf <3
Does it have a name and, if so, what is it?:
Yes, she does! She told me, after about seven meetings, that her name was Meili-Lan. I've nicknamed her Mei :3
My spirit looks like:
A beautiful fae whith iridescent fur (which I believe symbolizes our different feelings/emotions and histories and personalities and other things like that) and piercing golden eyes. Her personality is different, though, and doesn't really reflect her appearance. As gorgeous as she is, she's more often than not painfully shy but her tough and protective side shows when someone she cares about is in danger. She's always there to offer me advice and words of comfort when I'm in a situation that makes me feel like I can't get through it alone but my friends aren't able to help me. Most of her hunches and strange feelings turn out to be right, so I listen to her a lot as she thinks things through more thoroughly than I do and she helps me to see other sides of things I'd never thought of before, new points of view and opinions. She's very valuable in my life and I love her to bits because she's really important to me.
She didn't speak at first; I would concentrate hard and appear in a peaceful forest. Smehow, I'm able to navigate my was until I'm sitting under the biggest tree I can find and she'd simply watch me from the shadows... But as I became more and more curious as to who and what she was, she quietly introduced herself to me and would eventually come and find me herself. I think I've made her more confident when it comes to voicing her thoughts and opinions, whereas she's taught me modesty and humbleness. We've changed each other a lot and help each other whenever necessary.
I'm collecting the 2020 Easter bunnies designed by Anouki. They're based on a
Japanese pottery technique where items are repaired by glueing the pieces back
together with a (typically) gold lacquer. It's called "kintsugi" and the idea behind
this is that broken things can still be beautiful, a mantra that has helped me cope
with the latest years of my depression. I've been saving up for a tattoo, to be my
first one, which will also be fashioned after kintsugi. That's why this design holds
a lot of sentimental value for me and, consequently, why I'm setting up a hoard
for them: to remind myself that even though I'm still struggling now, I will get
better. Please help me with this hoard. Thanks for reading. ~Love from Moony
