Therianthropy

This poll is to review the variables in therians, to find more common ground out of such a broad community. I would appreciate if ONLY those who identify as a nonhuman being vote on this poll. I would like to be as accurate as possible with this, so as to prove or disprove a hypothesis of my own creation, which will be revealed later in study. This poll is not meant to be offensive. It is meant to collect the beliefs and experience of everyone in the community. You only have to answer the required questions.
What is your theriotype? (wolf, fox, lion, bear) You may even have an extinct or mythological theriotype (dragon, mammoth, dire wolf) Aliens are also found amongst the therian community, and are welcome to the poll as well. Vampires are also common, and are welcome. You may also be more than one species (polytherianthropy)

What kinds of shifts do you experience? (I had help from The Therian Guide on this question. The shift descriptions are not written by me) http://therian-guide.com/?page=Shifting
Dream Shift (when the theriotype stimulates the brain while a person is sleeping and allows them to become their theriotype in their dreams)
Physical Shifting (when the body changes DNA and shifts into the full form of the theriotype)
Bi-location Shifting (when the body supposedly makes a carbon copy of the theriotype inside the body and travels the lands; sometimes as a spirit and sometimes, others may believe, as a somewhat physical image of their theriotype)
No shifts at all, but still indentify as a nonhuman being
Aura Shifting (when the auric field changes to their theriotype, this often happens subconsciously or when provoked
Cameo Shifting (when one experiences shifts that are not their true theriotypes)
Mental Shift (when a person's mind reverts to their theriotype's)
Phantom Shift (when the person begins to see or feel limbs of their theriotype)
Con-Shift (one is constantly shifted)
Sensory Shift (senses are heightened to match those of theriotype)
Journey, or Astral Shifting (when the person is on a Shamanic journey or in their sacred place, and they are their theriotype)
Other...
How often are your shifts? Are you in a constant phantom shift, or does it rarely ever happen? Please be specific!
Do you believe in the existence of spirits or souls?
Do you believe in reincarnation?
Do you believe in Heaven and/or Hell? What about another form of afterlife, or paradise?
How about God, or other deity?
Therianthropy is not the same as spirit guides or totems, but many people in the community identify as nonhuman beings, as well as have spirit guides/totem animals. Do you have a spirit guide or something similar?
Are you also a furry?
Yes.
No.
Other...
Do you accept the most common therianthropy symbol as your own? (Theta Delta)
Yes.
No.
No, it has flaws and it is not broad enough to cover the whole community.
Other...
Are you open about therianthropy? Do you tell people? If so, who?
Do you wear a tail/collar/ears/etc? Where? (home, school, mall, never)
Do you have past-life memories?
Yes
No
