My mission vision for the VC (Vampyre Culture) is apart of the “Great Work” and it is something which is at the foundations why I wrote the Black Veils Master Vampyre Edition. The my goal is to inspire, challenge and set and example through my businesses including the Endless Night Vampire Ball events. Everyone should strive for personal nobility, everyone should strive empower their own internal King or Queen. I have seen the Vampire Mythos has evolved and we are entering a vampiric age we beyond anything of the past. It is our duty to embrace and take this opportunity, lets not miss the chance.
So here are 10 things which I suggest individuals do to take action to improve Vampyre Culture beyond just partying and spending all day online in Vampire’s “Game of Fangs” politics. I forewarn this Great Work will take focus, hard work, creativity, action and effort.
With so much talk on the concept of improving of the Vampyre Community we must start with Culture. Culture is an important part of evolution of the unity of any community. People talk about Unity, but they don’t know where to truly start is in the individual. Unity is a desire to get along in harmony and the Vampyre is an evolved being, we are the forerunners of many trends and the keepers of lost traditions and ideas. Focus your energy on the beauty and majesty of the vampire archetype.
1. Music - Listen to classics, educate yourself on lyrics or support a band talking about Vampire Culture. Music vibrates and moves the very building blocks of the universe.
2. Dance - Be it ballroom, the waltz, ballet, gothic / industrial, asian geisha dances, etc. are a powerful energetic and creative focus.
3. Martial Arts - can bring forth discipline and focus, provide training for self defense and explore a philosophy of chivalry and honour.
4. Education - The BDSM and Pagan communities have workshops, courses, classes, etc. on a a variety of subjects of interest. Do courses, presentations, classes on Yoga, reiki, Vampire Mythology, Ancient cultures, dance, etc.
5. Write - a book, poem, song or article on a subject to inspire, educate and challenge the modern VC.
6. Gastronomy - eat and drink together, cook, host a dinner party. Food and cooking together at the same table is a powerful cultural tool of unifying the VC. When in another halo explore the local cuisine.
7. Visit / Travel / Explore - YES BE A TOURIST. Get to know the local monuments, food, history, culture, historical and sites of interest. Do it with other local vampires.
8. Communion - Do energy communions together, hold hands, breath and meditate, cleanse, center and ground.
9. Talk - Communication is key, don’t focus on differences, focus on common things of interest like music, food, humour, your favorite TV show or films, etc.
10. Craft - make things, create be it a new corset, pair of fangs, crafted piece of wood or a beautiful painting. Crafting its good for the soul, Current and brings good focused energy.
So lets begin…
