Egregore (also spelled egregor; from French égrégore, from Ancient Greek ἐγρήγορος, egrēgoros ‘wakeful’) is an occult concept representing a distinct non-physical entity that arises from a collective group of people. Essentially it is the creation of new spirits / deities.
I believe that all deities & spirits were essential created through the power of belief and the stronger the belief and the greater number of believers the more powerful the spirit. This is not a new concept by any means. Watch any Christmas movie and you will see repetitive motifs of Santa Claus needing people to believe in the spirit of Christmas in order for his sled to fly.
With that being said my teen has decided to experiment with creating a new set of egragors/deities. I thought it would be fun to share to boost awareness, because I love the concept.
