Therian to Empathic Vampyre
I will preface this article by saying there was a time that I doubted the existence of Therians. I imagine that some of them have some doubts about Vampyres as well. I simply did not have experience with any that proved to be legitimate and thought that I had closed my mind to that group entirely. This is the same attitude that I had, as a primarily sanguine vampyre, towards psivamps. My knowledge was limited by my lack of experience. But as with most things once you have experience, once you ‘know’ within your spirit, you cannot NOT know again.

This is the same attitude that I had, as a primarily sanguine vampyre, towards psivamps. My knowledge was limited by my lack of experience. But as with most things once you have experience, once you ‘know’ within your spirit, you cannot NOT know again.
I have had some interaction on the life-force level with those I believe to be ‘true’ Therians. Not the life-stylers and frauds that their community is as plagued with as much as the Vampyre community is. These exceptional individuals that I have had the privilege of meeting were different. I sensed it in their energies, their manner and in the similarities of what occurred in my interactions with them personally. They simply ‘felt’ different. Their energy was not vampyric but something entirely different and not like the non vampyric people I knew either. When I would take in a bit of their energy I would also be taking in a bit of that part of them that ‘Therian presence’. The residual effect was that I would feel a shift in some way towards my instinctive side and in my case feel a bit more in tune to my totem animal, the Black Panther. I identified with this creature and when I had read about it, it became clear what areas of my being, my personality were affected by this.
Today I was feeling some residual energy and effect from a recent interaction of this kind with a Therian friend. I have been “feeling my teeth” so to speak and as I walked around occasionally I would look to certain people with an eye to prey. There was something about these other people around me that was drawing, or attractive to my vampyric sensibilities as if I hungered about them. At times I would feel my friend and hear their ‘snarl’ in my ear, paired with my own. Not an angry snarling, but that one of energy and wildness. Again not my normal state of being, at least wise not when I have exchanged with other vampyres or the non-vampyric, though I do have a bond or connection to them as well which is very strong after wards. I could also feel some of their memories or personality in a absent way, but not so much the core nature in this degree. I was aware of the action of my energy on theirs, not so much how it affected them in detail, but that they were wrapped in it deeply and that it was pleasurable to them as they communed with mine.
I’m never 100% sure what the person that I direct my energy to is sensing or thinking as they take in my energy, but I am sure of their emotions to it, if they feel fear, if they are timid or if they immerse in it, or if it is a sensual or sexual element to them. What I was giving to my friend that evening was to remove some edgy residue in their energy and mend where that energy had been. The imagery I sent them was changed slightly but had the same presence for them when they told me about it later.
I wrote about some of this in a similar article a few years ago:
“I have realized that there are times when I am involved over a time with a person that I am trading energies with, that I begin to feel effects lasting after the exchanges that are reflective of the other person, more than myself. Either personality wise, or possibly in more instinctive, inborn ways.
Most Recently I had an occurrence that comes to mind. It is very rare for me to feel any true deep animalistic impulses on my own. The kind that might cause me to feel as if I am in “hunter mode”. When I have felt such things welling within me, they are short lived and mostly felt as a surface idea, or thought. These things that happened to me naturally, a slight awakening of something within me were more a mindset change and very temporary. I was speaking with a friend who identifies with the Therian Archetype very strongly. We were discussing the similarities in how thoughts of feeding in various ways can manifest from something as simple as a slight absent desire, and grow to the point where it seems that something else takes over. The “being within” simply becomes more than the ego and logical side. Being that I also believe in suggestibility it is possible, very possible that our talk of blood and stalking had simply stayed in the back of my mind. I never shut the door completely on the power of the mind to influence such things.
I remember the next day I was driving along not thinking about anything in general, when I could actually feel something different. It was as if, his primal side, that part of his inner being had crossed over to me simply from the exchange of energy. This instinctive animal “presence” was not something that I felt “attached to”, it was not part of me that I had ever experienced, but it stayed with me solidly for a few days.”
One of the most curious things I have come to realize was that a lot of Therians tend to be emotionally in tune with those around them, just like Empathic Vampyres are. Not just in tune or sensitive to energy as most Vampyres are. From some primal, animal center there is a core ability to feel a person, sense their underlying emotional state even if their external visage would indicate something else entirely. Like for instance how dogs and other creatures can sense fear, or if something is off about a person or situation. I believe that that is why I, like many other Vampyres feel connected or at home with those of Therian nature. Sometimes more so than our Vampyric counterparts.
Not to cast any negative light on our vampyric brothers and sisters and their abilities, everyone is a little different, but many empathic vamps have told me that they have a more deep level of connection in their communions of energy or blood with some Therians simply because they sense that during the interactions, their partner is feeling and experiencing on a more deep, encompassing level. There is a different level of understanding there that is evident. That where the emotion and the physical reactions are there with another donor, be it a non vampyric person or other Vampyre, they sense that there is somewhat of a difference in what they are experiencing and what the other is, a kind of disconnect. That it is a world away from simply feeding and the connection is subtly understood, as if each simply understands what the exchange is going to entail for the other one involved.
Many vampyric people can sense a difference in their exchanges with other non vampyric donors in this way as well. That as much as the vampyre is getting from the blood or pranic energy, the non-vamp is not experiencing the same sensation. They feel a release and a pleasurable feeling as the energy leaves them, but it is different.
Therian energy is attractive to me as an empathic Vampyre. I find that the temporary effects of awakening my more dormant, primal self is very pleasurable. I enjoy the ‘spike’ of my instinctive self and the power within me that it creates. For the Therian, I’m exchanging with, as it has been told to me, my energy can act as a ‘taming’ influence, softening their piqued or always on edge senses, and general ‘on alert’ state of being, or in some cases remove from them the need to keep that part of their inner being ‘in check’. Allowing the ‘beast to run free’ for lack of better words.
It is a gift and a pleasure to hold that part of them in my hands as it feels all the more sacred to me, from what I have seen, most tend to be reluctant to trust anyone to touch them or that part of their being. For me it seems the more special since as a Vampyre I am very careful with whom I share my energy and connections with. Also there seems to be a core sense that even though I am generally a loner by nature there is within me the same sort of drive or desire to be part of like kind, like many Therians speak about.
I am glad to have had the opportunities to experience the effects of Therian energies and to find that like myself and other Empathic Vamps there is a common ‘sense’ of those around us and possibly more than a few ways that we as ‘other beings’ are equipped to be of service not only to our “like kind” through the gifts and talents we possess, but in some ways to each other energetically. When thinking of these experiences that we can share, I begin to question why some on both sides feel we are so different and should be cautious.
After all there is a bit of good in the worst of us and a bit of bad in the best of us as societies.
