I am a Chaos Magician and what does that mean?

I am a Vampire and proud chaos magician, here is the Black Veil from my forthcoming book BLACK VEILS MASTER VAMPYRE EDITION due out September 1st 2020.

Black Veil of Chaos Magick:

By nature many Black Veiled Vampires are Chaos Magickians, following the maxim stated by Peter J. Carroll, one of the founding fathers of Chaos Magick: “belief is a tool.” In effect, the Chaos Magickian sees belief as an active form of energy that can be manipulated by agreement and will, as in Vampire Sorcery. Since Black Veil Vampires, through Zhep’r / Xepher, begin to focus on tangible results first, belief and faith become tools instead of than points of reality.

Therefore, advanced Vampires can work through the foundations of Chaos Magick, combined with practice, skill and discipline, to begin to use these techniques for dream walking and shaping their own reality around them in accordance with their will. Additionally, Chaos Magick can easily be used to facilitate “pop culture magick”, dealing with thought-forms such as manipulating egregores and belief flows in our common cultural consciousness. Many elements of Chaos Magick include sex, satire, artwork, Taosim, Discordianism, Tantra, sigil work, and work with the Greek Goddess of chaos, Eris. The main orders that focus on the study of Chaos Magick are Illuminates of Thanateros (IOT), and singer Genesis P-Orridge’s Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth (TOPY).  

The accepted symbol of Chaos Magick is the eight-pointed star or “Banner of Chaos” from the fantasy novels of British writer Michael Moorcock. The most notable feature of Chaos Magick is the ability to “paradigm shift,” which is the magician’s ability to shift belief systems and interact with a variety of magical, spiritual, and philosophical. Chaos Magickians also utilize spontaneously created deities, rituals, and practices; this is the same process that gave birth to the Pulses and the Current.

One of original Black Veils: The Bloodbath Liquor

The Bloodbath is a cocktail that is the staple of the Vampire Culture around the world, with reports of it being made in South America, Siberia, Japan, and Australia. The Bloodbath is an original Black Veil, but few know it’s true history. It was created by Alchemistress Ambrosia of the Sabretooth Clan as the staple drink of the Legendary Vampire Club “Long Black Veil” in Gotham Halo (NYC) and Endless Night Vampire Ball events.   

This drink was such a favorite of many of the Black Veiled Vampires and guests of LBV over the years that they would empty bar stocks in one evening. Many Black Veil Vampires recall the old days at LBV with dozens of Victorian and leather clad Gents and Witches standing around slowly sipping from wine glasses of Bloodbaths them in the Versailles room of MOTHER.

The Bloodbath is traditionally made with 1/3 chambord liquor, 1/3 cranberry juice and 1/3 red wine (preferably Cabernet), then put on ice, shaken like a Martini, and served in a chilled wine glass. There have been many variations, such as the New Orleans Bloodbath, which uses a hint of rum, or other versions which add grenadine, spices, or to share a Bloodbath with another Vampire is a great pleasure, especially while at a Vampire Ball, meetup, haven, or moot.

RIP Genesis P-Orridge founder of Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth one of my inspirations

One of my great inspirations Genesis Breyer P-Orridge (22 February 1950 – 14 March 2020) passed away yesterday. As a practitioner of Chaos Magick they inspired me greatly and I was actually able to meet them at a TOPY show in Williamsburg Brooklyn.

(wikipedia says the following)

They were an English singer-songwriter, musician, poet, performance artist, and occultist. They rose to notability as the founder of the COUM Transmissions artistic collective and lead vocalist of seminal industrial band Throbbing Gristle. P-Orridge was also a founding member of Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth occult group, and fronted the experimental band Psychic TV. P-Orridge identified as third gender, and they preferred gender neutral pronouns when being described. As a practitioner of Chaos Magick they inspired me greatly and I was actually able to meet them at a TOPY show in Williamsburg Brooklyn.
