Hello from the Newcomer

Hello,

I don't want to enclose my real name or such personal information here yet. I am a person, and people are creatures of ego. This is true whether you are human, vampire or otherkin. This being said, I hope that I do not offend anyone in any of my future posts, and if I do,  I hope that it can be settled in a direct message rather than shunning or harsh reactions to misunderstandings that are so easily caused when communicating through a computer.

I have some history involved in *popular* occult (as a kid you aren't going to get close to the real thing). I was born into a Catholic family, but my mother and other family members experimented in Witchcraft and other occult practices (my uncle was into the occult and satanism). Because of this, I was introduced to witchcraft at a young age (through a book my mother had ordered to read on white magic and Wicca). This and the satanic bible were both in my home at the age of 12, but I only read the book on witchcraft, as I was afraid to dabble in satanism not knowing what it was truly. However, I did skim through it and see pictures and some pages of text, then decided it was too scary to continue.

As a child, I turned to an inner God and spoke inwardly in prayer. I always rejected the teachings of the church. When I turned 13, I learned about Wicca and other witchcraft and paths within the pagan community. I became a Wiccan in solitary practice and later a self-proclaimed Pagan, known more accurately as Neo-Pagan, all the while, continuing presently and forever, devoting myself to work with Aset. Now, I do not identify as my identities of the past, but I do credit their systems for some valid spiritual teachings.

Since I can remember, my biological family has had experiences with spirits, and I have always had no problem in coming into contact with them. I am a natural energy sensor and can usually sense it by intuition and always sense it through sight, though it is very subtle in normal conditions.

I am twenty one years of age now. I am a natural sexual feeder, though I admit I am recently 'awakened' and was unconsciously (or semi-consciously?) feeding for a long time. I also feed in other ways of course, but I find this my preferred and most generative in terms of energy.

I hope some of us can become friends. To everyone else, respect is key.

Welcome.

Hello and welcome.

Welcome to the community. I hope to see you active in our discussions and open to share your views. Do you have any experience with other vampire related communities and traditions?

Also, if you don't mind, how did you find this forum?

Thank you. I do hope to become an involved member of this community.

I have not had any contact with any "vampires" that I would consider as a REAL vampire, if you know what I mean.

I have had some experiences with vampires on the astral or another subtle realm... Some good and some bad encounters.

I found this forum a while ago, and have been using it as a resource for my questions, as it always pops up when I search the things I search.

I have performed successful and powerful magick and contacted several deities and entities. I am usually a solitary worker in all my arts, but occasionally I will work with others, though this is rare.

And what would you align your process with your work you mentioned? Is it vampire? Is it Witch? Magician? Pagan?

Sorry Maxx, I have been unconsciously feeding off of energy as long as I could remember. This is a vampiric aspect of mine that is not a practice embedded in my soul. My practices are more on the line of witchcraft, I would say but I am not all knowing yet and perhaps what I have been doing solitarily has a name in communities. I also use energy from feeds in what I guess you would call spells.

I have had success in black magic as well as white magic.
Though I do not usually practice actively, this year has been quite "alive."

This is a vampiric aspect of mine that is not a practice embedded in my soul.

Pardón, I meant This is a vampiric aspect of mine that is not a practice but embedded in my soul.

feeding as you mentioned can be utilized by any human in the same way.  Black, White, actually is no dif.  It is all Magic.  I can associate with what you say as I deal with both so-called Angelic as well as so-called Demonic.  Guess one could call me a Witchy Magician.  Welcome to the forum.

also I look at the word soul mostly different than most. To me it is the unconscious mind and it is always moving at a higher velocity than the speed of light as that is where all thoughts are located and all thoughts move faster than the speed of light.  When the anchor physical drops off that soul continues to live or dwell in that velocity speed or higher. Proof will show you that no thought is contained by any physical body.

Thank you for answering my questions. I certainly know what you mean when you say that you didn't have contact with vampires that could be considered real. Real vampires are rare and few, most online making bold statements about it aren't really vampires. On the astral is a different matter and there are many creatures of a vampiric nature, which you seem to have established interaction with.

This is interesting as that describes how vampirism is defined in the Asetian tradition. They see it not as a defect like others claim but as an essential part of their soul. That may be part of the reason why you're getting so many results pointing you to this forum in your online searches.

Maxx I think that the words vampire, witch/sorcerer and magician/magickian can all be used together in certain cases. For example you have Asetians that are vampires but also practice forms of traditional witchcraft and high magick that can be considered magicians. Not always those words point to different things and opposing processes.

Thank you.

Comparing human and vampiric feeding just doesn't make sense to me. It is quite obvious the difference when one is maliciously intended and one is a necessity of nature.

Magic is magic is magick. Black and white can be used to differentiate, still, though, in the rites used and to give a better sense of what general type of intent you had in mind.

I am observant of the different meanings of the word soul as it is a very subjective. When I say soul, I am referring to my subtle body.

I am aware of the Asetian Tradition. I did not mean to imply that I had not or do not know the concepts affiliated with such an Order. I describe it similar to the Aset Ka because I have experienced similar awareness of my soul.

I believe that you're right about the usage of such words. In the end, words are symbols and they represent what the mind can unlock. These words are placeholders... Kinda like black/white magic, left/right, light/dark... The essences are there, but the words are not concrete labels.

Welcome, Heruset. I have found this site to be full of knowledge, especially concerning Vampires. I appreciate the open-mindedness and opportunity to communicate with fellow Asetianists, as well as other like-minded individuals.

Thank you for the kind greeting, Gargoyle.

Jonathan, of course, you are correct. But I have not seen many come directly into this forum aware of that. They all come in with a direct focus on some singular element based on all the kinds of different stories they are moved emotionally having gotten it from the internet.

You're welcome, Heruset.

Maxx,

I am right here-- lol.

I am not part of the many you have seen.
I am aware of different terms and concepts and as you've read in my post my knowledge on such subjects came at an early age-- thus I have years worth of studying and researching (on a personal level) the occult (admittedly both mixed popular and traditional). At first, of course, I didn't get it. I didn't know what the *beep* was happening in the world. Now I can say I know better.

I am not here to gain something from you.
I am not here to make the vampire community look anymore foolish than it already does because of phony humans who have a connection to their dark side and prefer it to their light side. These people can be role-playing vampires, witches, etc, but they will never be a true vampire, witch, etc, because even the act of them role-playing it tells me they are not awakened to their true form (as they are claiming to be something with no sense of who they are, and this becomes quite obvious).

PS. I don't believe everything I read on the internet.

It takes me a while to accept any statement someone makes as being real...as well. lol  I watch and wait and see.  So I do not take any statement someone makes at the beginning as being real either.  LOL.  In fact I question it all...and wait and see. I suppose you can be upset with that or not. Just my way.

For instance, I have changed into a gigantic large wolf from a human form in the spirit realm and tore an individual to pieces as his wife came running out the door and watched too frightened to get into the fray. He and I were at odds about something I will not mention.   I saw another third party person I was aware of stand at a distance and watch this all happen and later comment on it without me saying that it had happened from the spirit realm.  There are other things I have been involved within the astral or spirit realm pertaining to such......  but I do not consider myself as other kin or a vampire even tho the vampire tactics are certainly employed by myself in the higher realm.     So you might see where I am coming from.  I question just about everyone coming into this group as the majority are coming from the play action world of the vampire community network world of silliness.

Maybe shoot first and ask questions later.....Van Helsing.

You're a funny one, Maxx.

I am not expecting anyone to believe in my "realness" but any real vampire would be able to verify for you by energy sensing or another means.

Did you write that Buffy Fanfic or did you find that on Tumblr.com?

I would be more weary speaking to strangers, friend. Some might not be so safe.

pS. That wasn't a threat, that was cautionary advice.

Everyone has their fair share of meeting someone who is not who they seem, right?

I see where we are here. Two smart asses. Who the hell is Buffy? One of your friends?

Maxx,

No one is being an ass here.

Of course, Buffy would implicitly be my friend, as my post did mention you creating Fanfic about her. Unfortunately, she's fictional much like how the core essence in your story sounds.

Of course, if it's true it's true and it won't matter if I believe it.

over the years I have learned to smell the bull shit from miles away. Tell Buffy hello for me.
