Sanguine Vampirism: What It Is, and Isn't

A sanguine vampire is described as a vampire who takes from blood
energies. It is important to remember that blood is the vessel by
which we get life energies.

Many are under the misconception that blood vampirism is about the
taste of blood, or the consumption of blood, etc. This is not the case,
even moreso, there is the misconception that a desire for the way blood
looks and feels. With alot of blood fetishism out there, it is not
uncommon to run into quite a few people who believe that a sexual attraction
for blood and consumption of it while in a sexual situation in which there
is no energy exchange is real vampirism. That is wrong, as there is no
energy exchange, then it is just something you do for sexual gratification.

Another common situation, is when there are those who believe that dead
blood (I refer to it as dead, because it has been away from the body of the
person, animal for a long period of time) will give them life energies.
I do not believe this is so, most who eat rare steaks, drink cooked blood,
don't understand that most of it has been frozen, processed, and had the
life force sucked right out of it. It is my belief that only blood taken
fresh from the source (something/one alive) will have the energies in it
that you need. And it must be consumed at the time that it is extracted
otherwise, you lose the life energies contained within.

Something as well that alot of people don't understand, is that it is a
need rather than just preferance of taste, or what have you. Something that
you enjoy. And as anyone who has read through the VC site knows, that is
not real vampirism.

Sanguine vampirism is not about how much blood you take, how much you like
the taste, or how often you feed. It's not about blood fetishism, or
drinking blood merely for pleasure, sexual or otherwise, and it isn't about
people who like to cut themselves for psychological reasons.

It is based on real needs, and the blood is just a container, because the
need is not for the blood, but for the energies contained within. Hope you
have found this article to be informative.
