Sangress, hi...

For some reason I think you would enjoy reading about Spinoza - so many people have never heard of him - and he is such an important person in history...quoted by Einstein - early thoughts used by Freud,
tell me what you think perusing this...

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

Coincidence? Only this week I was reading some Spinoza. Curious.

Is there a way in which you can protect yourself?

In a way you have to do battle to protect yourself.

I wonder whether it is a matter of the frequencies of vibration. For example, anger, violence, etc. are raw energies having a low frequency, I guess. You thrive on those. Higher vibrations could therefore be 'deadly'.

I'd have to think on that for a while before even approaching the conclusions I could get out of that information.

Haven't you ever seen a movie about vampires? Here is a link about vampires:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vampire

About the gold light in churches. I once read how someone was observing a group of people that were with a guru. He observed this light which surrounded the guru and thought it belonged to the guru until the guru left the group and he discovered that the light was the love felt for the guru by the people he was with.

(Also, sorry for the delay in replies. Been busy. If I've missed anything please say so.)
You haven't. Thanks.

Interesting, he and I seem to have a bit in common. I'll be doing more extensive research on him for sure.

Yeh, its always been like that. I assume its just the predatory way of being. Fighting to rights for ones own "territory,"challenging others who are a threat before they get the upper hand.

I also think that, since I generally don't have energy to spare....attacking is probably easier than defending because the latter option takes more effort and energy to maintain...whereas the former takes a few moments.

So, naturally I'm probably in conflict with a lot of things because its just "easier" for me to fight.

It's all speculation though, I'm as much of a stranger to myself as you are to me.

Hmm. Thats a possibility.

I was going to say that I can blend and match myself to most energies, but later in my development I've come to find its the other way around. Energies blend well with me and match my frequency.

Other than twilight (which I will never watch again if my life depended on it :P) and some cheap horrors? No.

I've heavily researched historical information and recounts about all things vampire related, but I've never been game enough to get involved in the pop culture....etc side of it all because, to be honest I just consider the majority of it to be (excuse the bluntness) a complete load of bullsh*t with absolutely no ties to reality what-so-ever.

I was aware or rumanian traditions with garlic and thyme being used to ward off vamps, beheading corpses and putting blessed rocks in the mouths of their deceased relatives after death, as well as occasionally putting coins on the deads eyes so as not to allow them to open again...and other things used in the middle ages to ward of or deter (or kill) vampires.

But I've honestly never heard of a link between christinaity/the cross and vampires in general...so this is news to me.

On a normal basis I would think that perhaps someone who was christian decided vampires were "of the devil" or unholy and said they'd be burned by a cross to back up their assumptions, or maybe it was a ploy to convert people by getting them to wear the cross for "protection."

But my personal experience has thrown that logic out the window, so I'll just be confused until I get to the bottom of that.

I've observed similar things to that. I like to call it the "attention Wh*re affect" because if a bunch of people focus on the same thing in the same way (similar emotions inspired at the same time) then their energy tends to congregate around the person (or object)...its like they turn the point of focus into a magnet.

I use that affect to my advantage all the time. Comes in handy when you want to give people a particular impression or want to make them "blind" to what is underneath their energy.

Sangress, I just had a thought have you explored this issue with the aversion to Christian stuff / gold light etc. on any psychic vampire forums? Maybe there might be some folks there with the same type of problem?

About the Easter service, that's interesting about the gold light being the same even though the individual auras were different - maybe what you were seeing was the collective energy of their faith. And each individual might be contributing a different amount but it all formed one big batch of similar type energy?

I already personally know three others who have the same issue (and I don't know too many other people like me, so its either a freak coincidence or its not so uncommon after all) and I've contemplated asking around. But I try to stay far away from the entire vamp community (including websites) because there are a lot of misled people in those places, and I tend to attract way too much attention because I have a bit of a reputation.

Also, considering most of the residents in places like that are 14 year olds who cant spell for the life of them who want to be "turned"....I prefer to watch and listen rather than actually actively participate so that I don't end up tearing my hair out in frustraition.

In the meantime I'll probably quietly ask around and go looking for comments that others have made that could link up to this and maybe inquire further.

I was thinking something along those lines as well.

Maybe theres a collective "christian/god" consciousness and energy that people happen to add to or maybe tap into during prayer or simply when they feel they are "in the presence of god" or maybe they are always connected to it/creating it on some level?

I know several people who get nautious at the thought of going to church.
IMO, They don't have an aversion to true Christian or Divine beliefs, but rather an aversion to the traditionally fear & shame-based teachings.
I feel similarly, yet I've agreed with DH to attend, so my sanity saver is redefining gospel terms.
