Does any one here practice chaos magic?

Question

so what its like?

and what would be the difference between chaos and wiccan

Answer 1

Chaos is (as you'd expect) more disorganized, with methods coming from odd or unusual sources. Wicca tends to be more traditional.

Try looking them both up on wikipedia.

And kleptin: I feel sorry for you. Your pseudointellectual attitude will get you nowhere. I suggest you go to a bookstore and look for books on quantum physics. Hundreds of physics studies from the past 30 years have proven many Pagan and magical concepts to be quite accurate. Magic is a literal and scientific reality.

Answer 2

Chaos magic, yes yes, very intriguing! I write all of my own stuff and absolutely refuse to dedicate into a coven and be told what to do in ritual, so that probably makes me a chaos magician with some Ceremonial influence. It's almost eclectic, actually, when you're a Chaote.

Seriously now... I asked this question on here and got a great answer: "It is the most unadulterated form of magic." Basically you do what works for you and ignore all the high and mighty witches and what-nots telling you that "you're doing it wrong." Nothing is forbidden.

Answer 3

Chaos magic is a school that emphasises the creativity of the operator [magician.] Essentially, any symbol
YOU place meaning into will work for ritual. IE: Want a prosperity ritual, and The Seven Dwarves remind you of that? Use their likenesses in rituals, and play the "Hi-Ho," song."

Essentilaly, it's magic that breaks it's own ground, instead of following te path.

Wiccan magic is a combination of Western Ceremonial magic, and naturalistic magic. Ceremonial magic is a complex subject, to which I'll direct you to the work "Transcendental Magic," by Eliphas Levi.

I am not a Chaos Magician, but instead into Ceremonial and Witchcraft.

Answer 4

There's no such thing as magic. Everything that has a seemingly magical effect is just the product of the ignorance of the audience. Mirrors are not magical. Neither are matches, guns, or electricity. But if you fetch some tribesmen from a remote island and show him those things, you'll be worshipped as some god-shaman.

These fantasies about casting spells and hexes, none of it is real. The Wiccan concepts of witchcraft and nature induced magic probably stem from a psychological need to be special. Every 8 year old kid wants magic powers.

It's just that most of us grow up after a while while some choose not to.

In response to below:

I think you're passing judgement prematurely. You might want to take into consideration whether your labelling me as a "pseudo intellectual" is justified. You can say that you disagree with me and offer evidence for your point, but to point and label me a "pseudo intellectual" requires more than showing why what I said was wrong.

That being said, I think you are severely lacking in the concepts behind Quantum Mechanics. Nowhere in Quantum Mechanics does it state that unexplainable things happen. Quantum Mechanics is a branch of Physics that seeks to explain, not offer rationalizations for, events that are seemingly beyond our grasp.

Many people see Quantum mechanics as "outside" of the realm of science, that it deals in the unexplained and the supernatural. That's half true. It does deal in matters that traditional Physics cannot offer a valid theory on, but it in no way justifies the labelling of some phenomena "magic".

In short, your redirecting me to Quantum Mechanics does nothing to help your argument, rather, it strengthens mine. Magic is an arbitrary word assigned to unexplicable phenomena. It's a shrug. It's an "I don't know" compressed to two syllables. Quantum Mechanics assumes that something CAN be known, and seeks to find the answer.

Answer 5

Never heard of it, sorry.
