An egregore is a collective thought-form or psychic entity created by the shared beliefs, emotions, and intentions of a group of people. It exists on the astral plane and is sustained by the energy it receives from those who acknowledge or interact with it. Egregores can range from simple constructs, like a shared group mindset, to powerful spiritual forces that take on a life of their own.
As they become more autonomous, egregores may begin to influence even more individuals, leading them to act in ways they might not otherwise choose. They can also become malevolent, manipulating their creators or growing uncontrollable if their energy is not properly managed or if the groupβs intentions shift. The longer an egregore exists, the harder it becomes to control, and it may exert a disproportionate influence over those who have fed it, making it a potentially dangerous force in occult practices.
Origins and Function
The concept of egregores dates back to ancient mystical and occult traditions, particularly in Western esotericism, Kabbalah, and ceremonial magick. The term comes from the Greek word egregoroi, meaning βwatchersβ or βguardians.β In modern occultism, an egregore is often likened to a psychic servitor, but instead of being created by a single person, it is formed and strengthened by collective consciousness.
Types of Egregores
β’ Religious & Spiritual Egregores β Gods or angels that have been empowered by centuries of belief and worship of organized religion.
β’ Cultural & Societal Egregores β Nations, political movements, or even corporations that develop their own energy and influence.
β’ Magical & Esoteric Egregores β Thought-forms created intentionally by occult groups for protection, knowledge, or power.
β’ Pop Culture Egregores β Fictional characters or mythologies that gain psychic influence due to mass belief and emotional investment.
How Egregores Are Sustained
An egregore requires attention, emotion, and ritual to survive. The more people interact with and reinforce its presenceβthrough belief, symbols, rituals, or storytellingβthe stronger it becomes. Some egregores can gain autonomy, influencing the thoughts and actions of those connected to them.
Working With or Disrupting Egregores
β’ Creating an Egregore: Occultists and magickal groups sometimes create egregores for protection, guidance, or manifestation. These are carefully built through ritual, intention, and structured feeding of energy.
β’ Dissolving an Egregore: If an egregore becomes negative or harmful, it can be weakened through neglect, conscious dismantling, or banishing rituals.
β’ Recognizing Their Influence: Many egregores subtly shape reality through collective belief. Understanding their power can help one navigate group dynamics, avoid manipulation, or harness them for magickal purposes.
Egregores exist everywhere, from spiritual traditions to modern fandoms, corporations, and ideologies. Whether viewed as independent entities or as psychological constructs, their impact on the world is undeniable, especially within witchcraft and occult circles. Learning how to recognize egregores for what they are allows a practitioner to circumvent unwanted influences and protect their energy.

β€ Boundaries .α.α.α
{ ΒΏ } Harrassment = Report (depending on severity), Block and Ignoring/Deletion of Harrassment
{ ΒΏ } Please use tonetags. I am diagnosed with Lvl2 Autism, and I don't understand tone 99% of the time. If I use tonetags on you, and you don't like it, I'm sorry it's not meant to be demeaning, it's just force of habit, my overexplaining and my inability to understand how people can inherently comprehend tone correctly.
{ ΒΏ } If you know me from other platforms, no you donβt. I like keeping them sepearate. I also deleted most of them due to our recurring visiobibliophobia
{ ΒΏ } I prefer to stay out of active discourse. I have my opinions, but I'm not looking to argue about it. You're harrassment will not change my opinions
{ ΒΏ } Obviously no fakeclaiming. I'm quite literally diagnosed with everything listed by medical proffessional over my life span thus far. This even includes DID, I'm a diagnosed system
{ ΒΏ } If you don't agree with me, or don't like me, move on. Posting on r/FDC is useless too, as previously said I literally have filed diagnostic papers proving every single diagnosis listed. All of that will be ignored. I donβt know why you'd be obsessed enough with me that you feel the need to rant on the internet about me as a stranger who doesn't even know me personally
{ ΒΏ } This also goes for anyone who doesn't like that I enjoy content from "problematic people". Sepearate the art from the artist (unless it's J.K. Rowling, she can disrespectfully rot, you can't sepearate the art from the artist when the artist's vile opinions are ingrained in the art AND CONSUMPTION OF THE ART IS LITERALLY FUNDING HATE CRIMES). Live and let live. It is literally not affecting you
{ ΒΏ } Refer to us in plural terms and as sepearate people. We prefer to be treated as a system rather than a singlet
{ ΒΏ } I do art, but only for money. Do not ask "can you draw me π₯Ίπ₯Ίπ₯Ί" unless you are willing to pay me money for my literal job. No, payment doesnβt mean "pay in exposure" BS.
{ ΒΏ } No we don't trace, use AI or steal art. Our widelly differing art styles are due to our plurality
{ ΒΏ } Don't use my art for AI unless you ask first and I explicitly give you permission to do so. Yes, this includes free art gifts too. Free art does not give you any sort of automatic permission to generate your own replicated stuff off of my hard work. I feel like this should be common sense, but I guess not???
{ ΒΏ } I can say no to anything, please respect that

An anonymous survey of personal encounters, experiences, and interactions with The King in Yellow
All questions are optional as all won't a
I'm interested in compiling as much information as I can on any instances of strange experiences after reading The King In Yellow. Feel free to share without linking to this post, just share the survey! All answers will remain private and only to supplement my own personal practice, however, if substantial enough. I may make some posts conclusions and findings. As for now it's just a personal project, but who knows!
