Something curious

I’ve been doing a wee bit of research on chaos magick and other things esoteric lately, cos for whatever reason that’s the way my useless brain seems to be turning at the moment, although when I say “research” I mostly mean these two videos:

These come from a channel called What Magic is This?, and they have a bunch of other interesting-looking stuff (I also quite liked their video on William S. Burroughs and Brion Gysin).

Anyway, midnight last night rolls around after watching the second video, and there’s me doing the latest Wordle… and the word of the day is, well, “chaos”.

I’d like to apologise to anyone who hasn’t played today’s games, but tough, I’m not going to. Anyway, that was… odd, to say the least. It’s not necessarily the oddest thing like this to happen to me; I used to call these “synchroincidences” cos they struck me as falling between those two stools, in that maybe they were meaningful (which, as I’ve always understood it, is what separates synchronicity from just coincidence) or maybe they were just shit happening. Who could tell which was which? It was when they started piling up that things really got weird, but that’s another story. This story is odd enough as it is. If I were inclined to think in terms of omens, I might consider this one… albeit an omen of what exactly, I don’t know…
