Re: Dream Interpretation
I find it interesting that many times a vampiric dream is about both base sexual attraction but also about masculinity and dominating presence. You hardly ever hear about vampire dreams dealing with female vampires as I believe it goes against the masculine motif and implied power. I say implied for it seems the western vampire is both a sense of power and manipulation behind deceptive looks. Granted that is more of a traditional persona vice the more current Twilight inspired teen drama persona.
So potentially you have someone that presents a controlling sense of presence and power. Yet you say its a different vampire in each dream which to me suggests its about the imagery of the vampire and the projected authority and power that is bestowed upon the individual. Almost to the point where there is a sense of awe being in its presence. Figure if your willing to let it guide and inspire you there is a sense of surrender to its power and authority.
I am curious in that my initial thoughts were about the men in your life to include your own father. Almost a sense of some perception of power, authority and perhaps ones place around him and seeing something similar regarding your relationship to other men. You say it's not sexual which to me suggests its more of a perception of relationship and position in reference to other men. Almost like you might encounter in a work environment where the men outnumber the women and you sort of look to someone as a mentor to guide you. In recognizing such you acknowledge both a fatherly type position and dominating or superior position. I'd say that the vampire wants to keep you there also suggests a sense of protection and need or importance to the situation.
But in the end it's always going to be up to you to decide what each aspect of the symbology means to you.
