RUBY TABLET OF SET

ate for very large groups. there should be a mirror on or near the altar. it is preferable that the performer of each element bring his own materials for that element. the priest should provide the chalice. the ritual elements are: priest, bell-ringer, censer, greeter of set, candle-lighter and/or -extinguisher, summoners of the north/south/east/west, masters of lust, compassion, destruction, the undead, etc. note that this can be expanded or contracted as may be appropriate for the participants involved. each, the priest included, must conceive his own working, preferably focusing it upon principles pertinent to his own life and/or a relevant neter. the actual words of the priest as given below are intended as guidelines to illustrate the intent of the ritual, rather than as a required sc

hese, plus variations from other countries, all point to the same thing: the presence of a non-natural being possessed of a strange and frightening life where none should be. the generally accepted definition of the vampire is that of a reanimated corpse ready and able to leave its grave, usually during the night hours, to batten on blood. immunologists would find themselves at wits' end with the undead: few beyond andy warhol have allowed their vampires to become ill from ingestion. we know, from looking at this world and the data available regarding the universe, that life is not the norm. the norm is the non-living mechanical physical science of the consistent cosmos. early man could not know this as he struggled with his newly awakening senses to classification: v2- c5v- 1 author: jame

idual make a change, begin to breathe, and look about, and you can easily imagine the effect on the bystanders of an earlier age. other symptoms of porphyria are psychological alterations. personality changes, hysteria, confusion, and psychoses have all been documented. compare these also with descriptions of some of the vampire cases of history, and again we can suspect porphyria rather than the undead. to offer further support for this alternate possibility, one of the most striking symptoms occurring in some classifications of porphyria is that of erythrodontia. in this condition the teeth are stained grossly red or brown, and the body is frequently feverish. the one unfortunate enough to have this may also exhibit hemolytic anemia, a disorder characterized by the short life of the red

families] more than sensitivity to sunlight, more than comatose states, more than any other thing, we associate a mouth red-stained with the vampire. take combinations of erythrodontia, confused states, lethargy, coma, anemia, and personality changes, and then place them amid a largely uneducated and superstitious society, and you may well have happened on the basis for more than one tale of the undead. the medical cannot be the only etiology to account for all the cases of vampirism recorded, but i feel they may account for a certain number. but just as one begins to feel that reports of the undead are naught but old wives' tales, some old wife is sure to be found dead, bloodless, and punctured with wounds suggestive of "animal bites" charles fort, in wild talents, deals with several sus

ghoul the ghoul is linked with both the vampire and the werewolf in traditional folklore, but there are a number of obvious reasons why the entity has never attained the popularity achieved by the frankenstein monsters, draculas, and wolfmen of the horror films. the category of ghoul encompasses a number of different entities. one type of ghoul, like the vampire, is a member of the family of the undead, continually on the nocturnal prowl for new victims. unlike the vampire, however, this ghoul feasts upon the flesh of the deceased, taking the corpses from cemeteries and morgues. the ghoul more common to the waking world is that of the mentally unbalanced individual who engages in eating or otherwise desecrating the flesh of deceased humans. yet a third type of ghoul would be those native

vampyr; the latin, sanguisuga; serbian, vampir; russian, upyr; polish, upirs; and the greek, brucolacas. from the villages of uganda, haiti, to the upper amazon, all indigenous people know the vampire in its many guises. traditional native american medicine priests, arctic eskimo shamen, and polynesian kahuna all know the vampire and take precautions against those who were once human who are now undead and seek blood by night to sustain their dark energies. with each succeeding generation, the dark powers of the vampire have grown. his hypnotic powers have become irresistible, and his strength is that of a dozen men. he can transform himself into the form of a bat, a rat, an owl, a fox, and a wolf. he is able to see in the dark and to travel on moonbeams and mist. sometimes, he has the po

task to estimate the current population of those who define themselves as some facet of the term vampire, or to establish any but the most approximate demographics. millions of readers and viewers have agreed with rice that the vampire is a romantic, enthralling figure. the author s major vampire character, lestat de lioncourt, and her series of books in the vampire chronicles series, portray the undead as far from grotesque, shroud-wrapped monsters. rice has stated that she perceives the vampire as an individual who never dies, who exerts a charm over people, then accepts their blood as a sacrifice that he might live. in her opinion, the image of the vampire is alluring, attractive, seductive, and the idea of being sacrificed to keep such an entity alive becomes rather romantic. in the no

entity alive becomes rather romantic. in the november 24, 2000, issue of the new york times, margaret mittelbach and michael crewdson reported on the city s vampire scene that has been going strong since the mid-1990s and the many nightclubs that cater to the daylight-challenged in their article, vampires: painting the town red. the journalists describe the activities in dens where as many as 300 undead heads dance, drink, and make merry late into the night. the dress code in such establishments is gothic, darkfetish, faerie, wiccan, or celtic and the overwhelmingly predominant color of the clothing is black. on the rare occasion when a patron of these vampire havens smiles, mittelbach and crewdson noted, one can make out the glint of white fangs. other researchers have discovered that the

border on the supernatural that are accentuated with the ingestion of human blood. most often the vital fluid is obtained from willing donors who permit the vampires to make small cuts or punctures in their flesh and lick or suck the blood. the vast majority of those enthralled by the vampire lifestyle are those young people who find dressing the part of an attractive and seductive member of the undead appeals to their romantic sensibilities. for them it is like being able to dress up for halloween at least one night per week all year long. while role-playing as vampires and victims may be considered quite harmless as long as the participants know when to draw the line between fantasy and reality, those who cross the boundaries of mental abnormality into blood fetishism and obsessive bloo

ne of those phobias that has its roots in humankind s earliest taboos and reflects such commonsense reasoning as the danger of contracting diseases from the deceased. all of the world s religions have strict rules about how the dead should be handled and how a proper burial should be conducted. and all world cultures have superstitions and legends about vampires, zombies, and other members of the undead who seek the blood of the living. tales of the dead returning to communicate with their relatives or exact revenge on their enemies are known to every society. with such a heritage of fear of the dead lurking in the unconscious, it is to be expected that some individuals would develop such a crippling dread of a deceased person that therapy or medications must be prescribed. the word comes
