EPISODE 26a - 05-26-2010 - witches meet up -- Vivienne D'Avalon presenting about vampirism

EPISODE 35 - 11-03-2011 - Sanford Vampire and Shadowlore Meet Up Chronicles

ok, this is our meet up reboot -- virtual, podcast conference call only. A virtual vampire house! But as always, inclusive of our fellow Otherkin, the vamp curious, donors, etc. etc. Hopefully we will become an even better resource in this format; I plan to add segments on vampire related news items, answering questions people on the vampire boards have posted, etc. We will change days and times around to try to accommodate a variety of schedules. I'll also set up a Facebook group and hopefully that will be a better, more useful resource than the meet up page was. Talk to you soon! *** Editor's Note: This ended up being the last episode, because in 2012 I had a serious back injury that resulted in my being out on disability for most of the year, and I just never picked the podcast back up after that. Keep your eyes open for future calls/podcasts on this or similar topics, though. Vivienne

EPISODE 30 - 09-03-2010 - Sanford Vampire and Shadowlore Meet Up Chronicles

We will be discussing the magical power of blood and its uses in ritual and magick; blood has been feared and held in awe for thousands of years, with cultures all over the world having taboos of all kinds related to blood in food, menstrual blood, its use in sacrifices, and so on. Join us with your experience using blood in magick spells and rituals, as offerings, etc. We will also talk about safe methods (using lancets, e.g.) to obtain small drops of your own blood (not anyone elses!) for use in magick.

EPISODE 26a - 05-26-2010 - witches meet up -- Vivienne D'Avalon presenting about vampirism

I was invited by the witches' meet up to present about modern vampirism, address concerns and prejudices of non-vampires, and answer questions about the nature of vampirism. We covered a wide range of topics, from genetics to medieval medicine, awakening stories to energy work.
