Sun and vampires

[moonbow]

I thought the "vampiric tendrils" thing was a fallacy created by Belanger?
Although, i do agree about the moon. I do not like the sun much, so the moon has always been my chosen and preferred.

I don't know about Belanger and while the tendril does seem a bit strange and inconvenient at first nothing would be able to stop you from creating and/or using one if you really wanted.
As far as I remember in the book it wasn't a single tendril but a horde of smaller tendrils growing naturally all over your astral body as a result of practicing vampirism and reaching out to your environment.

For what it's worth: I have read more than a few books about Taoist mystical and magical practices, and I can't say I have ever seen tendrils mentioned, especially in relation to environment. I could see how some directing of energy may seem like a tendril when connecting with another human. That said, I'm sure I have read only a fraction of what is available and there are many schools of Taoism.

On the other hand, I can think of at least a couple LHP grimoires that reference a tendril without mentioning Belanger. Whether they took the idea from her or arrived at it from personal experience or some tradition is anyone's guess. One in particular though I'm sure drew it from Carlos Castaneda's books, where energy tendrils are definitely a thing.
