The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Foreword



I am drawing my new Tarot cards, called the “Hagur Vampire Tarot,” my previous drawings of the Major Arcane being in 2004, inspired by the Order of the Nine Angles. I recently started drawing with the Major Arcane, to continue afterwards with the Court Cards, and obviously the Minor Tarot, altogether 78 cards. I drew so far the seven first cards of the Major Arcane, with the description as hereunder.



However, the zero card, “The Fool” is an important but separate card, representing the Psychic Vampire during his transformation time, and the searching human. It also represents Percival.



Myths and metaphors, like the reality of dreams, are powerful tools that draw Vampire, listener, dreamer and even the reader to a character, symbol, or situation, as if in recognition of something deeply known. Myths bypass the mind’s effort to divorce emotion from information. They make an impression, are remembered, and nudge us to find out what they mean.



You will agree that a great work has now started by gradually drawing the 78 cards of the Tarot on the Vampiric Philosophy. Each card of the Tarot has its own story, and has a lot to say. Down the ages since its invention, the Tarot has become a sacred book, not revealed by god, but man. Man is the creator of God, not God of man is commonly agreed today. The Tarot is a high place on the mountains to dwell on, a place where Vampires meet the immortals, “Those Who Have Risen” that are present in the collective consciousness. The Tarot permits consciousness, like sunlight, penetrate the more surface depths of personal feelings and illuminate what is there. And the more one works at his mental condition as in meditation, much that is hidden, dark or simply a mystery will be revealed.



Psychologically, as in all Western civilizations derived from Ancient Egypt as well as Ancient Greece, the very summit, the Mont Blanc, is the realm where culturally sanctioned archetypes dwell, a meeting place for Psychic Vampires in transformation and other older ones.



It is also true that whatever is discounted by religious people as a whole, and some other in our society more traditional minded go “underground”. Be it known that in mythology, the mental realm and the divinities with the mind, will, abstract thought, and power are very much honored. Through our active Vampiric way of life, we live on the summit, while those who represent devalued attributes do not. The Vampire in the physical body flows by as historical time, but is part of an eternal cycle with “Those Who Have Risen,” as archetypes in collective consciousness.



The Hagur Vampire Tarot Magazine keeps you informed about the artistic and meditative progress of my work along the 78 tablets (cards) of the Tarot. Keep in touch with that whole experience of mine. It will be published on Scribd, and obviously appear on my Facebook for you to read and ponder on.



This is copyrighted, and will appear in the first issue of the magazine which I hope to publish sometime in July 2012.

I hope that meditating on these cards with contribute to individualisation as a process in which Vampiric transformation and growth are achieved through tapping into the limitless unconscious psyche where the archetype – inborn from the earliest times reside. I do hope that my Tarot at the end will help every Vampire and Human to rediscover the primordial images representing the archetypes, “The Undead Gods, Those Who Have Risen and gone into eternity” before us.



I do hope to make of my drawings and paintings a ground-breaking book with Vampiric symbolism in the New Hagur Tarot. The Major Arcane of the Tarot are perennially imaginative descriptions of ancient and eternal and manifold designs that lie dormant in the collective unconscious, and as such can be helpful guides in our journey toward vampiric individuation.

I shall work along ONA’s Tree of Wyrd and its paths as far as the Major Arcane is concerned. The Tree of Wyrd is like a germ cell that has divided itself into seven segments or spheres: Moon, Mercury, Venus, Sun, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, and related to each other with paths in a complex network connecting each sphere or planet to all others.



One will also be able to use the New Hagur Tarot for pathworking and meditation, but also for divination. I do hope my work will help the Psychic Vampire to improve self-reflection, self-clarification, self-confidence, self-discipline, self-determination, courage, needed solitude at times, meditation, silence, better insight into the solution of a problem, discovery of a vampiric secret in our tradition, secret vampiric knowledge, study and wisdom, prudence, circumspection, vampiric experience, trust in fate, shared joy or pain, and discretion always.
