Hi, @zuhman! I’m Amethyst from Southern West Virginia. Welcome to the forum! :infinite_roots:

It’s great to meet you! Do you have any ideas of what kind of magic you’d be interested in learning? For instance, I like candle magic.

Anyhow, it’s nice to chat with you! I’m looking forward to getting to know you!

@TS5 posts a lot about it. Several of us identify with parts, most, or maybe all of it. It has lots of facets and I can’t do it justice but here is a thread that Tracy did that has all kinds of information. [Chaos](https://forum.spells8.com/t/how-to-practice-chaos-magic/51108)

Hmm, I think there’s someone here that works with Hel, so maybe they can help you with death work. But yeah, I enjoy candle magic. I have WAY too many candles. LOL!

Simple explanation is grab what you have on hand and throw it together. Lol but @dan3 did post a very good link for you to check out. @TS5 did a great job of explaining it and has some great videos also in that link.

🤣 💓

Very true but learning how to do that is challenging. I am such a newbie at it that I hesitate trying to explain but, for sure, a primary key is intention. There are so many books about it that are full of intellectualizing but light on implementation. The one that (I think) cuts to the heart but may not for everyone is: “Practical Techniques for Directing Your Reality” by Adam Blackthorne.

The Chaos gods froze my computer so I had to retype this. 😜

Tracy mentioned Ivy Corvus - double thumbs up for that.
