This evening of Ritual Play offers an introduction into a Chaos Magickal approach to ritual workings. For me rituals serve as a creative and playful tool for spell casting and do not need to be taken as serious sanctimony.
Creating a ritual acts as a means to enter an embodied and alternate state of consciousness that allows the participants to land the sentence of intent deep into their own system for the magick to unfold.
For this evening the intent will be to re-awaken our creative juices after this long pandemic winter. We will be connecting to the energy of spring by invoking the archetypal forces of creation, rebirth and illumination represented by the Goddess Ostara or Eostre.
Neo-Pagan witchy communities celebrate Ostara at the Spring Equinox festival. They associate this festival with the planting of seeds, the renewal of energy, both physical and spiritual to foster personal growth and the capacity to create what we want to see(d) in the world.
We will be calling on the forces of spring and creation a couple of days earlier, because – as chaos magickians – we can.
Rather than trying to recover and maintain a tradition that links back to the past (and former glories), Chaos Magick is an approach that enables the individual to use anything that s/he thinks is suitable as a temporary belief or symbol system. What matters is the results you get, not the “authenticity” of the system used. So Chaos Magick then, is not a system – it utilizes systems and encourages adherents to devise their own, giving magic a truly Postmodernist flavor.
