Advanced Vampirism & Energy Work Research Survey

Examining the Intricacies of the Vampiric Condition

Authorized Edition v2.0 - 1 August 2006

_______________________________________________________________

Purpose & Significance:

The Advanced Vampirism & Energy Work Research Survey (AVEWRS) is conducted by the Atlanta Vampire Alliance [AVA] with contributions from both independent and affiliated groups within the vampire community. This survey has come about in response to the inquiry received while conducting the original Vampire & Energy Work Research Survey (VEWRS) and from the examination of responses gathered during past months. The purpose of the VEWRS was to gather data about the general aspects of vampiric life and practice as reported by real vampires with a particular emphasis placed on the social structure and interactions amongst vampires within the Community. The scope of the survey covered many surface topics, but necessarily left many advanced topics unaddressed. During the ongoing analysis and correlation of the responses from the VEWRS we both identified the need as well as received a significant number of requests to address more in-depth aspects of the vampire community; specifically vampiric traits, abilities, beliefs, and energy work techniques. Based on these requests, five independent research topics were chosen to be explored and subsequently compiled into a single concise survey format to facilitate the ease of participation. We believe that the information gathered regarding these topics will be of specific and immediate interest to members of the Community, and will increase the knowledge that the Community has about itself, its members as individuals, and its relationship with other groups and communities.

Complimenting the work outlined in the VEWRS, we provide the opportunity in this follow-up survey for the participant to provide comprehensive written responses regarding the primary areas of personal experiences, abilities, and the application as well as interpretation of their beliefs. Some questions may not have an apparent direct connection to the vampire or energy worker communities; however, in order to correlate data in the areas of personality, beliefs, and demographic background they are crucial to establishing a foundation for detailed case study analysis. In many cases these questions directly address the past analysis of researchers regarding the vampire subculture and the conclusions drawn by these outside researchers from the examination of limited reported experiences by members of the Community. We hope that the data gathered through this survey will help serve our primary goal, and allow the Community to examine itself by addressing topics which are important to its members. Our intention is to provide this data in a comprehensive printed and digitally available analysis to the Community as a resource for our deeper understanding of modern vampirism. We anticipate the results will provide a body of data which will speak to members of the Community, clarify aspects of vampirism and the culture that vampires share, and allow individuals to place their own experiences, practices and beliefs in context, with regard to the greater Community.

Like with the VEWRS, the qualitative aspects of this survey will allow for an intrinsic case study examination that covers the primary spectrum of beliefs and opinions held by both the independent and affiliated vampire community. The AVEWRS is designed as a stand-alone study built after a preliminary review of the VEWRS, however, there is a provision embedded into its design to allow linking to the initial VEWRS for purposes of correlating the demographic and other quantitative data presented in topic one. The use of this sequential transformative strategy will enable our researchers to further expand the examination into the personal lifestyle, family background, medical history, paranormal experiences, and societal involvement as reported by individual vampires and first highlighted in the VEWRS. The remaining topics of the AVEWRS, unlike that of the VEWRS, are independent from one another and address uniquely different questions and purposes, however, directly adhere to the overall scope and spirit prevalent within both surveys. Utilizing a concurrent transformative strategy, sections two through five will examine a variety of subjects in varying levels of detail. We will attempt to highlight the integral nature of energy work within the vampire community by providing a comprehensive battery of questions concerning individual perception, manipulation, and utilization of energy. As evidenced throughout pockets within the community, terminology used to describe the vampiric condition is variable and thus presents a challenge to researchers to adequately interpret the intent of the participant. This issue is addressed in topic three through a qualitative examination of definitions used by the modern vampire community to describe vampirism. In addition the specific beliefs, postulated origins, characteristics, and practices of vampires are thoroughly examined. Building on the preliminary work concerning spirituality and its association with those in the Community, we will examine in greater detail the religious, spiritual, moral, ethical, and philosophical ideals that motivate and often serve as a uniting force for the Community. This phenomenological approach into the thought processes and viewpoints held by vampires is crucial to understanding the collective consciousness of shared beliefs within the Community and for potentially dispelling misconceptions of unethical and immoral treatment of others by our kind. An examination of how vampires interact with subcultures will compliment our preliminary finding in the VEWRS that many vampires identify themselves as belonging to one or more additional subcultures and/or otherkin classifications. This pseudo-ethnography will examine the core interactions, perceived and directed sentiment, and cultural similarities shared among communities.

We understand the value of quality responses over that of quantity and seek directly members of the community we recognize as being able to provide valuable insight. The potential knowledge this survey may provide to the vampire community merits an extensive networking effort to gather support and participation. While conducting this research we are committed to remaining neutral and abstaining from controversial rhetoric that could be viewed as biased. As researchers, we recognize that we have a responsibility to be both fair and thorough in serving our community. Using a pragmatic approach to our research we welcome exploration of the diversity of beliefs held by those of the Community without injection of assumptive claim or validity judgment. This is ultimately an effort by the Community, and for the Community, which we hope will also reach beyond our boundaries, to be a body of knowledge from which outside scholars can draw when trying to understand the reality of our lives and experience.

Ethical Considerations:

All involved with this project are deeply concerned with the safety, well-being, and happiness of the members of our Community. We believe that this study will be of aid to the Community as a whole, to help us understand each other and our situation, and to allow us as a Community to answer the analyses of outside researchers in our own words. This study will also benefit the individual respondents by providing an opportunity for reflection and examination of their unique individual experiences.

Participation in this study is completely voluntary; members of the Community who choose to participate should do so in order to further the Community’s knowledge, and should use their own judgment to decide whether participation is a positive, safe, and healthy activity based upon their own individual circumstances. Any participant may remove themselves from the study at any time, and may also ask questions of those administering the survey via anonymous e-mail for the duration of this study.

We are concerned with the safety and well-being of our Community members, and therefore acknowledge that for some individuals participation may put them at some form of risk. Having this survey in one’s possession, accessing the URL of the online version, or being observed in the process of completing the survey may cause risk or harm to some individuals from those outside the Community. Participants are the sole judges of their circumstances, and we encourage participation by only those Community members who feel that their situation will not be adversely affected, either emotionally, physically, economically, socially, or in any other manner, by any aspect or stage of participation.

We are also concerned with the stability, prosperity, and freedom of the vampire community; we are uninterested in abusing any information so generously offered by the Community. We believe that our efforts should be for the entire Community, regardless of philosophy, lifestyle, group affiliation, or lack thereof. Therefore, we have undertaken this study, as we did the original VEWRS, in order to apply our expertise, experience, and curiosity to a project which we believe we can offer the Community as something of use, of interest, and of great benefit. This study, as is true of the original VEWRS, will not support an attempt to “define” vampirism, arbitrarily draw a line of demarcation between feeding practices, to claim exclusive intellectual authority over the phenomenon, or to uphold or denounce any aspect of vampirism as more or less valid. These are not goals of the study, nor are they ethical (or academically sound) uses of the data collected. This study will simply exploit the well-established vampiric tradition of enthusiasm about knowledge to report to vampires what other vampires have said about their lives, beliefs, and practices; thereby the Community can see these aspects of itself with better perspective, and use these answers to discover the next set of questions.

Privacy Considerations:

The enforcement of privacy and ethical standards while conducting this research is paramount to all involved with this project. We wish to make the smallest footprint on the Community as possible in the distribution of and collection of data from this survey. Participants should be cognizant throughout the completion of this survey of the information they are providing and adhere to the guidelines established below.

No response that yields information which could be used to locate or personally identify respondents or other members of the community should be given at any time. We will vigorously safeguard the privacy of our participants by employing various security measures to ensure complete anonymity. All form submissions completed online will be processed over a secure server, results stored offline, and no internet protocol addresses (IP) will be intentionally logged or maintained by our staff. Participants may also choose to safely submit this survey from an anonymous e-mail or by postal mail. Only raw statistical data collected from this survey in coded form will be made available to the general public once an internal review and analysis has been completed. After the cessation of this data collection all responses will be stored under lock and key in a secure location, never to be shared with other researchers or persons outside of the administrative body involved in this study, however, the aggregated data from the study, as well as analysis of that data and conclusions drawn from that data will be made publicly available.

A seven digit code may be utilized to remove any survey from final data analysis if chosen by contacting us at research@suscitatio.com; Subject: Exclusion Option: EXC5098; Field 1: Survey - “VEWRS” or “AVEWRS”; Field 2: “Date Of Birth / Place Of Current Residence”, as provided by the participant for verification. Additionally, if the participant completes this survey offline or via e-mail we ask that they write a random seven digit series of letters and numbers at the end of the final question under “exclusion option” so that higher regulatory consideration to privacy exclusion may be exercised as mandated by various international standard codes of ethics and institutional review board guidelines.

Definitions & Precedent:

As an extension to the theory defined in this mixed methodology study we will attempt to explain the viewpoints of real vampirism rather than propose a controversial “universal” definition that would ultimately serve to exclude certain participants in the community. We recognize that claims of what comprises “true” vampirism or “living” vampirism varies to an almost infinite degree within the Community. However, generally there are universal characteristics shared among the majority that we hope will temporarily unite those who hold differences of opinion while completing this survey. Only the individual understands his or her own vampirism, path, and code of ethics and therefore, should answer all questions out of respect and in accordance with their own personal beliefs.

A vampire is essentially a blood drinker or an energy feeder that may display various levels of psychic ability. The vampires that are the focus of this study are individuals who cannot adequately sustain their own physical, mental, or spiritual well-being without the taking of blood or vital life force energy from other sources; often human. Without feeding (whether by a regular or infrequent schedule) the vampire will become lethargic, sickly, and often go through physical suffering or discomfort. Vampires often display signs of empathy, sense emotions, perceive auras of other humans, and are generally psychically aware of the world around them.

The following section represents the various categories that relate to the modern classification of vampires as defined by feeding method. Terminology is haphazard and problematic within the Community, and the attempt is made below to acknowledge alternative spellings, and identify distinctions (some of which are controversial) which are made by some Community members.

Vampirism

The most common and universal distinction made within the Vampire Community is the distinction, based on feeding method, between Sanguinarian and Psi Vampires.

Sanguine Vampires (Sanguinarian) feed by the drinking of blood - either human or animal. Sanguinarian vampires can vary in their experience of blood hunger and in how often or in what quantities they need to feed, but the unique craving for blood and the physical symptoms associated with neglecting to drink blood are unifying features of sanguinarian vampirism. This term is commonly shortened to sang. Not all members of the Community actually acknowledge the difference between psychic and sanguinarian vampirism, and there is a popular but not universally-held theory within the Community that the life force energy or “prana” contained within the blood is the source from which they feed, rather than any physical component of the blood itself. This theory is supported by the notably small amount of blood that vampires consume to alleviate their hunger, but challenged by the fact that vampires who consider themselves primarily blood drinkers often do not display as many or any of the psychic tendencies that psychic vampires do, and more often report more physical symptoms, such as sense acuity and physical strength, than do the psychic vampires.

Psi Vampires are understood to feed psychically on life force energy. Psi (or psy) feeding is usually performed on a willing individual or from the ambient energies of a large group or crowd. This term is often mistakenly confused with the pop psychology use of “psychic vampire” or “psychological vampire”, used as a metaphor to describe specific socially manipulative behaviors. The most common usage within the Community, however, does not include this metaphor. Psi vampire, refers to a vampire who feeds by some manner of energy transfer; this term may also be shortened to psivamp. Psy vampire, and “psychic vampire” are sometimes considered synonyms for psi vampire, but are also sometimes employed as separate terms with distinctive meanings. For example, “psi” is often employed as a synonym for ESP phenomena in parapsychology, and “psy” is short for either “psychic” or “psychological”. Those who make distinctions between these terms may use these meanings as the basis for their reasoning.

Hybrid or Psi/Sang Vampires claim to have no primary feeding method, being able to feed from either source at any time. Others report changing their primary feeding source from energy to blood, or vice versa, at various points in their lives. Some, but not all, vampires who can feed or have fed via both methods choose to describe themselves as Psi/Sang or Hybrid vampires.

Some Community members go further to define sub-classes of vampirism based on the detailed methods and sources of psychic feeding. These classes are most often distinguished from one another based on the type of energy gained. Those who feed from natural or elemental energy, and those who feed from humans either during sexual contact, during magickal rituals, or during times of high emotional output may be described as specific types of vampires. Further subcategories of psi feeding energy exist, including terminology to describe those who feed from direct contact with the human aura, those who feed from the ambient energy of crowds and public places, those who can only absorb certain kinds of emotions, etc.

Energy Work & Manipulation

Many questions in this study pertain to, and to a considerable extent rely on prior knowledge of or practice of, what is generally referred to throughout the survey as “energy work”. We realize that this is easily as problematic a category as “vampirism,” due to the various metaphors and philosophies that various groups have assigned to the practice throughout history. Various theories posit the nature and origin of the “energy” in question, and many philosophies, religions, and spiritual or occult paths teach rules for manipulating this phenomenon, as well as theoretical limits of the practice. Of course, these philosophies and theories all differ in various ways, and also all seem to be describing at some level the same types, or similar types of phenomena.

To further complicate matters, there are no objective methods, instruments, or theories with which to measure or examine the set of phenomena and perceptions that we collectively address here with the blanket term “energy work”. Therefore, all questions regarding energy manipulation or perception have arisen from the observed conversations and collective experiences of Community members who may be far more likely to practice a technique than to have a name for it, more likely to have experienced a perception than to have a theory with which to explain or contextualize. We have gathered a range of questions from what we perceive to be either widespread Community practices or traditional religious, philosophical, or occult practices which speak to the vampire experience. The purpose of these questions is not to define the term “energy”, to prove or disprove its existence, or to promote one philosophy or spiritual path over another. It is simply and exclusively to gather information about what the Community does, and possibly where we get our ideas.

In asking questions about so poorly-defined and contested a category, we attempt to make use of both existing traditional terminology and common Community terminology. This is necessary to establish enough communication to answer questions accurately. We realize that for many individuals, the term they have developed on their own, or the one handed down to them by their tradition will be more familiar or more accurate for them. However, for the sake of clarity and establishing a common arena in which to discuss this phenomenon, a few terms have been chosen, based mainly on our perception of how widely they appear to be used within the Community. The following section briefly explains the use of terms as they will appear in the survey.

Energy

Common synonyms may be Psi, Prana, Chi, or life-force, although these synonyms may be loaded with cultural theories as to their nature. “Energy” is often defined simply as the ability to do work; in this case, there is no clear judgment as to the nature or measure of that “work”. Energy, as a synonym for the terms listed above, most often refers to an insubstantial but semi-objectively perceivable force, which many vampires (and other cultures with energy theories) regard as a naturally-occurring phenomenon connected to living things, the natural world, magickal ritual, and sometimes even electricity or kinetic energy.

The categorization of energy is problematic. Some of these aspects are under serious dispute by those who accept the existence of at least some kinds of energy. It is not always perceivable by every observer, and many cultures religious traditions have very defined beliefs surrounding this phenomenon. Our use of the word energy does not necessitate the acceptance of any one tradition that has something to say about its nature; we attempt to use it as a container category for the specific events that vampires tend to relate to these beliefs and traditions. For example, these events include psi feeding, which requires the acceptance of the theory that some kind of life-sustaining energy exists or is generated in human beings; and the perception of spiritual entities, which requires the acceptance of the theory that non-embodied creatures, entities, or beings can exist and be recognized by a sense that has not been objectively defined or measured in any study.

Energy Work

Any practice of manipulating, cultivating, or perceiving energy, regardless of the personal theory of the energy’s nature, origin, or spiritual significance. Persons who conduct such “work” are referred to by a myriad of different names including “energy workers”, “energy manipulators”, “energy practitioners”, “psions”, “pranists”, etc.

Aura

Aura refers to the energy field emanating from the surface of a person or object. This emanation is visualized as an outline of cascading color and may be held to represent soul vibrations, chakric emergence, or a reflection of surrounding energy fields.

Empathy

The posited ability to sense information about the emotional state of another human or animal creature. According to some theories, this may also extend to include the ability to influence or project emotions to other creatures as well.

Energy Constructs

The practice of shaping energy into a perceivable form is known as energy construct formation. Anecdotal reports suggest that the form that the energy takes is perceivable as an objective phenomenon by other parties. An extremely common form chosen by many energy workers seems to be a ball, or sphere, which can be given properties, such as motion, temperature, color, texture, or natural element, which can be perceived by others as well. Other constructs are possible, and even common (see, “shielding”), and many members of the Community have not fully explored the intricacies of other modern occult practices, nor has there been a serious study of the traditions of human philosophies with similar practices. Similar (but not identical) ideas from other traditions might include thought-forms, and tulpas.

Meditation

Meditation is the practice of focusing the mind, often formalized into a specific routine. Meditation is usually recognized as a component of Eastern religions, originating in Vedic Hinduism. It encompasses any of a wide variety of spiritual practices which emphasize mental activity or quiescence.

Shielding

The act of forming energy into the specific shape of a barrier is known as shielding. As with psi balls, anecdotal reports suggest that these are perceived as having similar characteristics as they were imagined to have by the energy worker. Therefore, shielding is also a somewhat objective phenomenon, which can be sensed accurately by some individuals. Shielding is a very common term which has few synonyms, and few competing theories as to its purpose or nature. The commonly accepted use of a shield structure is to form a barrier of energy to prevent the movement of some or all kinds of energy, most often to keep energy out or keep it in. This is most often considered a defensive tactic whose purpose is to protect the user from harmful outside influences. Many traditions posit a natural shield system inherent to the energy system of most human beings, although some conflate this with the aura, and the theoretical distinction between a posited “natural shield” and an aura is unclear.

Spiritual Entities

Spiritual entities refers to theorized non-corporeal or non-embodied creatures, which may, according to various belief systems and practices, be either constructed through the willpower of an energy worker or magician, or be a naturally-occurring being of natural, human or otherplanar origin.

Other Energy Related Terms

See the definitions associated with individual questions within this survey for further use and explanation of more specific conceptual terms related to energy, perception, and energy work.

Therians, Otherkin, & Other "Non-Human" Groups

Several cultures and groups of energy-aware people tend to refer to themselves and are consistently referred to by outsiders as "nonhuman," or are identified as their magickal type in opposition to a perceived majority that is designated "human". The terms therian, were, otherkin, and vampire are some of the more common blanket terms for these types of people.

In adopting this dichotomy between human and other than human, the term human is stretched significantly, and it appears to be more of a metaphor or verbal shortcut to allow the speaker to illustrate the difference between vampiric humans and mundane humans than any sort of deeply-felt assertion that vampires, weres, therians, and otherkin are actually not human.

Therefore, we must acknowledge that while the use of these terms does not exclude the magickal subcultures from humanity, a distinction is definitely being made within popular discussion in these respective communities between three major groups. First, magickal types of humans who are identified with the terms below and often referred to using a nonhuman metaphor (such as "elf", werewolf", "vampire", etc.), second, mundane humans who are not energy-aware, and third, those humans who are energy-aware (magickal practitioners, energy workers, shamanic practitioners, etc.) but who are always referred to with a human metaphor.

Therianthropy, Therian, & Were

Although definitions surrounding the practice or phenomenon of human-animal transformation, affinity and identity are atomistic and individual to many cultural and social groups, we attempted to borrow what appears to be a widely-used convention in the various magickal subcultures, which is to use Therianthropy as a greater category of animal magick, totemism, transformations, and identity. The members of this group are commonly referred to as Therians, and the Weres (Lycanthropy) can, under this definition, be considered a sub-category of Therian. We also acknowledge that Were is conventionally applied very loosely, with possibly conflicting meanings among Weres themselves. In this survey, we are adopting what we perceive as the more common application of the term Were, in which the term simply refers to any human with an animal-related identity that goes beyond standard shamanic or magickal transformative practice, totemism, spirit animal belief or other affinity. Weres themselves may have varying theories about the nature of their animal identity, including but not limited to species-mismatched incarnation, reincarnation from a previous animal life, or even inheritance of genetic traits. However, our use of the term is meant to simply distinguish those with affinities to animals or nature through magickal practice and philosophy (Therians) from those who claim an actual identity or partial identity as their were-side. According to this distinction, one may acquire the practice of Therianthropy, but one can only discover his nature as a Were. While we do not have vast experience in the Therian community, we believe that this distinction is grounded in the perceptions and terminology of that community, having meaning to the members of that community and not an artificial distinction imposed by outsiders.

Otherkin

Otherkin is a subculture made up of people who describe themselves as being non-human in some way, sometimes believing themselves to be mythological or legendary creatures. Many otherkin believe that they have non-human aspects that are either spiritual or philosophical in nature. Some otherkin claim that they are human in a physical sense, but non-human in a mental or spiritual one. Still others believe themselves to be biologically non-human with a direct relation to the species they associate themselves with or descended from that species.

692. Indicate the general health of your seven primary (Hindu Tradition) chakra points.

The Crown chakra (Sahasrara) is said to be the chakra of consciousness, the master chakra that controls all the others. Its role would be very similar to that of the pituitary gland, which secretes hormones to control the rest of the endocrine system, and also connects to the central nervous system via the hypothalamus. The thalamus is thought to have a key role in the physical basis of consciousness.

The Third Eye chakra (Ajna) is linked to the pineal gland. Ajna is the chakra of time and awareness and of light. The pineal gland is a light sensitive gland that produces the hormone melatonin, which regulates the instincts of going to sleep and awakening

The Throat chakra (Vishuddha) is said to be related to communication and growth, growth being a form of expression. This chakra is paralleled to the thyroid, a gland that is also in the throat, and which produces thyroid hormone, responsible for growth and maturation.

The Heart / Lung chakra (Anahata) is related to love, equilibrium, and well-being. It is related to the thymus, located in the chest. This organ is part of the immune system, as well as being part of the endocrine system. It produces T cells responsible for fighting off disease, and is adversely affected by stress.

The Solar Plexus chakra (Manipura) is related to energy, assimilation and digestion, and is said to correspond to the roles played by the pancreas and the outer adrenal glands, the adrenal cortex. These play a valuable role in digestion, the conversion of food matter into energy for the body.

The Sacrum chakra (Swadhisthana) is located in the groin, and is related to emotion, sexuality, and creativity. This chakra is said to correspond to the testes or the ovaries, that produce the various sex hormones involved in the reproductive cycle, which can cause dramatic mood swings.

The Root chakra (Muladhara) is related to security, survival and also to basic human potentiality. This centre is located in the region between the genitals and the anus. Although no endocrine organ is placed here, it is said to relate to the inner adrenal glands, the adrenal medulla, responsible for the fight and flight response when survival is under threat.

Sympathetic vampirism often involves feeding from a donor too frequently causing the donor’s resources to become so depleted that they have to resort to vampirism themselves in order to replenish them. They may also manifest symptoms commonly associated with real vampirism, such as heightened sensitivities. This condition often corrects itself in a matter of days or weeks but can last months or years.
