Chaos Magick?

[Jancarius]

Does anybody have any good information or links to information on this subject? I don't know that much about it, but from what I've read on wikipedia it seems to fit my personality in terms of beliefs and what-not.

Why don't you do a search on "Chaos Magick"?

I remember a discussion in "Psychic Self-Defense" where a guy had very nasty experiences regarding goetia.

here's the link to it

I wouldn't mess with that.

Yeah I like many aspect of chaos magick except for the fact that its author (carroll think his name is) doesnt entirely practice what he preaches. Chaos magick should be pure "what works.." stuff, using your beliefs and everything else only to achieve certain goals, and rejecting any sort of secular type thought. As such it draws on any and all practices it sees as effective, and has a few which are used to a greater extent that other practices (sigilisation of desire and the simplified concept of magical consciousness or "gnosis" being quite major).
Alas I see the same religion and spirituality bashing attitude and self percieved superiority which it claims to be beyond riddled throughout. Popular with teens and people in general angst..... Still, perhaps a minor complaint. Read the dual book "liber null - psychonaut", it is still very good. The next one in the line is OK (there are 3 books I know of hes written), but the one after that is total bilge, and shows his real attitudes which hide behind the "we have no beliefs" facade.

So..... cautiously recommended. The ideas and concept are sound, just keep a wary eye open at all times.

Goetia, summoning, and suchlike is not a major part of chaos magic, certainly not a critical part, and as always, one which should in general be avoided by all but extremely competant practitioners IMO.
