WHAT IS LYCANTHROPY?

Lycanthropy is the transformation of a man or a woman in a wolf. The causes behind this transformation are diverse: curse, enchantment, divine punishment and action of the devil. Lycanthropy involves a desire to satiate the appetite with human flesh. The curse is usually a family curse. Traditionally it is used as a criticism of habits that were not considered correct, such as not respecting Lent (eating meat on Fridays) or prioritizing courtship over work. The enchantment can be in many different forms and performed by different types of beings. These beings can be magicians, witches, meigas, shamans, druids etcetera. The reasons for these enchantment changes are very diverse; from giving more power to warriors in combat, to exploring distant places through the transmutation of bodies, through mere punishment or revenge. From the first example, we can conclude that there are two charms: the bad charm and the good charm. The divine punishment is caused by an offense to the gods. The transformation by action of the devil is the transformation of having made a deal with him, the sea appearing as a faun or having made a coven.
