Egregores and Group Minds
Can ideas take on a life of their own? Throughout history, secret societies, religions, nations, companies, and social movements have inspired extraordinary levels of shared belief, identity, and purpose. In modern occultism, these collective thoughtforms are often described as egregores—symbolic entities believed to emerge from the focused attention, emotions, and intentions of groups.
Egregores and Group Minds explores one of the most fascinating concepts in Chaos Magick and contemporary esoteric thought, examining the intersection of magical philosophy, psychology, sociology, and collective consciousness. Discover how egregores are said to form, evolve, and influence the groups that create them, while exploring both occult interpretations and psychological perspectives.
Learn how group rituals, shared symbols, myths, brands, online communities, and cultural movements can shape collective identity and influence individual behaviour. The book also investigates how Chaos Magicians have experimented with consciously creating, strengthening, and dissolving egregores as part of their magical practice.
Perfect for students of Chaos Magick, Western esotericism, psychology, and consciousness studies, this thought-provoking guide encourages readers to examine the invisible forces that emerge whenever people unite around shared beliefs and intentions.
Are egregores independent spiritual entities, powerful psychological constructs, or something that lies somewhere between the two?
Explore the evidence, the theories, and the enduring mystery of the collective mind.
