Description
The Egregores: Powerful Autonomous Psychic Entities Created by a Collective Group Mind This book explores the concept of egregores, autonomous psychic entities created by a collective group mind, and their role in Western occultism. Mark Stavish examines the history of egregores from ancient times to present day, revealing documented examples from various cultures and traditions. Egregores are sustained by belief, ritual, and sacrifice, and can take on a life of their own, becoming independent deities with powers their believers can use to further their own spiritual advancement and material desires. Stavish delves into the creation, sustenance, direction, and destruction of egregores, shedding light on this lesser-known aspect of Western occultism. By studying egregores, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the complex relationships between human consciousness and the world around them.
