What is Chaos Magic?
The answers to this can be as different as the practitioners. Because there’s no strict system you must follow, there are really no rules. It’s a philosophical approach, a point of view, Chaos Magic is a way of defining reality, it defines all of reality as illusion.
Chaos Magic is rooted in the hermetic principle of Polarity:
Everything is polarity and duality, everything expresses itself as a pair of opposites. Good, bad, right and wrong, like and unlike are the same. The nature of opposites is that they’re identical in how they function and different by degree. Extremes meet in a circle, yin and yang define each other, everything that’s true is only half true, it’s all a matter of degree.
Applying this idea, Chaos magic holds that if everything is real, nothing is real must also be true. Everything that society holds as real, the chaos magician holds as an illusion. He thinks of everyday reality as malleable, able to be changed, transmuted and shaped to the Will of the magician.
