📓 Mention blood and many people squirm with discomfort and yet we all have around 8 pints of it fuelling our systems. It is our literal essence and the blueprint for our ancestry. Blood mysteries open the door to taboos of all sorts and some might be disturbing. We will travel from lunar links with women's mysteries to tribal tattooing and hunting rituals to the practices of live sacrifices. The nocturnal world of vampires and true origins of this legend will be explored as will the less supernatural medical blood rites. We will also look into esoteric and sexual blood rites and rituals.
