I know of balancers, both Celestial and others, who have elected to devote their time bringing order to chaos or chaos to order in an effort to maintain Universal equilibrium.
I know one, and I know of one, but do not know him personally.
If you are looking for more equilizers then you will have more success if you do not limit yourself to looking for them in the Celestial races of Kin.
I am told there are so few Celestial balancers because Celestials are not the only Kin who take on this duty. For each Kin type there are a few who chose this path.
The one I know says they were trained, and carefully supervised. Their skills have been carefully integrated into their personalities, and though they actually have no special link or connection to The Source or Universal Conciousness, nor a special understanding of the energy waves or patterns they contain. Thanks to the special training they do have more ability in this direction.
They say the Shadow send them where they are needed, and though they work for and on behalf of all of us they answer only to The Shadow, who mediate for The Source.
It is obviously a difficult and demanding task, physically and mentally tiring, and emotionally draining. But if balance is to be maintained their efforts are vital to the smooth running of the Universe, and the continued well being of all that exists.

*** Question to the banned member who officially started this thread. ***


how would you know you were an equilizer? just self searching? or remembering past lives? and what do you mean only energetic beings? are there purely physical beings? sorry for all the questions!

What type of kin is the equilizer you know Elvin?
I have worked with two types, a Were-wolf and a Elf. Of the two I preferred the Elf, Were's are very hard to get to sit still. They have so much energy, and are so irritated by having to be still. They make me feel jittery aswell.

The Eqilizer I know is an Elf Shade. It would be a wonder if it were THE SAME Elf wouldn't it?
Yes I know what you mean about restless Weres. Darkness drives me mad sometimes with her constant fidgeting.

You could meditate Katie or you could visit the Library that Zygo has mentioned where there is a register.

There are no purely physically beings as each being has a spirit/essence.
But Kin ARE the energy beings.

When we were created there were no bodies, so every kind of kin began it's existence as a pure energy being.
The difference quoted is quite correct.

That is the difference between non kin and kin.
Non kin require a physical body to exist. Kin do not.
Our energy lives on without it's physical overcoat, until a new one is chosen, and we once again condense our essences to fit within a physical form.
For some, (once again I will use this poor man as an example) like Zygo, it is not as easy to squish yourself into a body as it is for others. But somehow he manages. Although there are times when if you glance at him from just the right angle you can see the body fraying around the edges and feathers poking through!

The fundamental difference between the stuff that a physical being is made of and the stuff an energy being is made of was discussed avidly and at length in this thread http://otherkin.30.forumer.com/index.php?showtopic=232
And was defined quite nicely in this quote from Lady C's Grandfather.

I had forgotten how marvellous it was to spend time here.

Elvin.

I can't understand why anyone would have any problem believing that all Kin are energy beings, since everything that exists in the Universe is made up of energy and matter of exactly the same kinds, just in different proportions!
That's not any kind of kin belief, that's science.
The only difference between humans and kin, any kind of kin is the spirit that lives inside.

i think she was associating energy that takes on a visual form to energy that is amorphous and assuming that just because it takes the shape of something that is also physical means that it in itself can be nothing but physical as well. which i can understand why someone might come to that conclusion, but how could you not feel the energy in all things? maybe she's null to that?

do all of you always take the same shape out of the physical realm? i've had times where i don't seem to have any sort of form in the Astral realms like i'm merely thought. it never really freaks me out because i know i'm there and if i think about it i'll take form. does anyone else do that? or am i just weird?

You're just weird.


No, sorry Katie, couldn't resist.

No you're not alone, I am sometimes sorry to think about taking a form, because I know that the second I do I will take one and lose the freedom of being nothing.
Sometimes it is easier for me to feel the energy in things than it is at other times. It is like somedays I have to work at feeling it, and some days I have to work really hard just to stop it from overwhelming me.

Anyone else get that, or am I destined to join Katie in the garden of weirdness?

haha thanks lady c! and i like this garden of weirdness. many weird things going on. and since it's the garden of weirdness, normality itself is weird in it. that's always amusing.

The problem with equilizers is sometimes they stop working for the best interests of the whole and start making their own decisions about who and what requires their services and how to go about dispensing their own special brand or eqilization.
Things can get unfortunate then.
I have known one such person who decided that it was her place to split up a couple who were happy together and very much in love. She decided that they were spending too much time together, and they did not have enough problems in their relationship, and that they could not -*test*-('") the strength of their love unless they had overcome at least one serious problem. The end result could have been devastating. Luckily she did not get the chance to do more than tell a few lies and write a few letters before she was discovered and her meddling was ended. But it could have ended very differently.
Balance is all very well, but no-one can know all the facts of a situation, or how everyone really thinks or feels. Unless something is really broken, leave it alone, often it will find it's own natural balance again if given the time.
Patience is the best thing in these situations I think.

And I am always a tall thin woman, with white/blonde hair, wearing a long pale blue dress, whenever I enter the Astral. I have tried being something else but I can't. I can't even change the colour of my astral hair or the dress I am wearing!
My daughter thinks that's because that's what I really look like inside, but I don't know. Maybe she's right?

I too like the garden of weirdness Katie, some of the most beautiful blooms grow there, undiscovered by most but appreciated by the lucky few.

The true Equilizers do not make their own decisions about who and what needs their special talents applying to them.
Only people who think they are Equilizers but are completely without the necessary training or even the natural instincts for what is needed do that.
These people like the one you mentioned Moon can and do cause great harm with their meddling. They place themselves in what they consider a position to judge, and often claiming a direct connection to a higher power in oder to make the chaos they create seem acceptable, make sweeping statements about what is right and wrong, and what is truth and what is falsehood, and then proceed to correct the mistakes of others in their own special way. They hurt innocent people and can bring harm to a good many things. They are a very destructive force indeed and are one of the Universe's many evils that need to be faced and overcome.
They do not need to be beaten, and you do not need to fight them, in fact the worst thing you can do is fight them as this is what they want. it helps them make things even worse.
You did not say how the person you spoke of was stopped in the end Moon, but the best ways to fight the evils of this kind are to remove them from your vicinity, remove yourself from their sphere of influence, and then move on and forget about them.
Meaness and cruelty have no place in our hearts or our lives, these people who need to treat others in this way must be left behind to live their lives and hopefully learn from this existence as we all do, in order to become more while we are here than we were when we arrived each and every time we live as human beings.
Human existence has much to teach and although not all the lessons are fun, they are all necessary, and we can grow from each and become more than we were because of them.

Live. Learn. Grow.

All I know of them, is that they're created as Balancers...it's what they are and what they do. I've heard their work described thus: If the multiverse is a diamond, all the planes of existance are the facets of the diamond, and balancers are the carbon bonds that maintain the diamond as a diamond; without them, the diamond either breaks down completely or becomes something entirely different. I've also heard that they have a direct link to the source and thus know what needs done and do it. They don't make their own decisions, they basically take orders. Though how what needs done gets done is up to them. That's about all I've got on the subject, though.

I believe that certain people need to appear much more important than they really are, and so will make outrageous claims like this one.

Only The Source is that important. No-one/nothing else has that kind of power or influence.
Otherkin are different both to Non-kin and to each other, but none of us is so special that without us the whole concept of the Universe would cease to be! For goodness sake I have heard some wild claims before, but that is a little much to be honest.
We are all just beings trying to survive the best way we know how. Some of us have more knowledge than others, some have more experience, but none of us is so important that we can eclipse any of the others. We should work together to be better people, and better friends and neighbours. To build better lives and communities for ourselves and others.
I do not see that any of us are better or more powerful or more important than any of the rest. I have met Kin who believe themselves to be better than/superior to humans, I have even been accused of that myself, but Kin that make claims of being more important than everyone/everything but The Source like this are missing something I feel.
We all come from the Source, and we were all created different, but equal. Yes I believe that some Kin were given tasks to do, and the abilities to carry out those tasks, but for someone to try and place him/herself above all others in this way is very sad, and very disturbing aswell.

I think the better analogy is that the multiverse is the diamond, the faces the planes of existance, and balancers maintain the carbon bonds that keep the structure together. *shrug* I'm just a tiger

Yeah I am sure you do, but the fact remains that from the sound of what you were told, this person really believes themself to be more powerful than any other type of kin, and what Lady C is saying is that such power belongs to The Source, and although the rest of us do have gifts and abilities none of us are so powerful that it makes us more important than any one else.

This sounds like a severe case of Elvin Princess Syndrome to me.

You're not just a Tiger Byakko, you are a Tiger with all the abilities that brings you, and the thought processes and logic of an intelligent human to drive and focus them.
I am Shadow, with the abilities that brings and the human touch to drive and focus them too.
Each side brings more to the other than either would have alone, and that works the same way for all of the Otherkin races, but still we none of us have the kind of power claimed here. No-one creature or race of creatures would be allowed to wield such power. It would be far too dangerous.
Still it is good to know about people who think like this, they can cause a great deal of trouble with claims like this, not least for themselves.
Thanks Byakko.

I know that this may not be true for all balencers but it is for me so I assume it goes to all, We are NEVER given direct orders, true we are told what to do, but we do it our way, and trust me they are very varied.
