I’ve heard something called “The Veil” referred to on several otherkin sites. What does this term mean?
The veil is a concept used by kin, and even some members of the magical community, to describe what separates science from magic and myth, the ‘real’ world from a magical reality where kin being in their true forms is possible. Although not official, the kin community has its own prophecies about a ‘falling’ of the veil and a resumption of kin to their natural state or true forms. It may come out of a desire for the community as a whole to be more recognized by the world…and by recognized, we don’t mean in a white padded wall kind of way.
