The Cut-Up Method has found a significant application in
chaos magick, aligning with the movement's principles of personal experimentation, pragmatism, and individualistic approaches to magick.
Chaos magicians often use the Cut-Up Method as a powerful tool for various purposes:
•
Sigil Magick:
Chaos magicians use the Cut-Up Method to create
sigils, which are symbolic representations of their desires or intentions. The method disrupts conscious thought, allowing the subconscious to absorb the desired goal more effectively.
•
Invocation and
Evocation: In rituals,
chaos magicians may use cut-up words, phrases, or symbols to evoke or invoke specific entities or forces. The method can enhance the practitioner's ability to transcend traditional belief systems and connect with the supernatural.
•
Divination: The Cut-Up Method can also be employed for
divinatory purposes, such as creating randomized oracles for seeking insights and guidance.
• Altered States of Consciousness:
Chaos magicians use the Cut-Up Method to induce altered states of consciousness, facilitating a deeper connection with the mystical and the unknown.
