No one can initiate me.
People can perform a ceremony for me to increase the likelihood that initiation will occur or to empower me in some way, but the only person responsible for my initiations in this multiverse is myself. The word initiation means to start, to transform, where one thing ends and another begins, like a rite of passage. However, an individual is never going to experience that rite of passage unless something has already begun to change within them. There is a degree of personal initiative in initiations; one has to be ready and willing, and able to make the change.

I can stay the same if it pleases me and remain rigid in my sense of self and cling steadfastly to my own ideas about how I am. Or I can embrace the variety of life, the unknown, the adventure and take on new ideas, new selves and different ways of being in the world. In my opinion embracing and initiating self-change is the more interesting way to live as opposed to staying in the same stream throughout this entire incarnation. It is, however, fraught with dangers, as one steps into the unknown, not knowing if your decision to leave the comfort of your self was the right one. This one change can bring about a whole host of consequences, some good some bad, and at the end of it, one is not the same person they were at the start.
A chaos magician is likely to want to embrace the change as the orderly life of staying the same is a prison of security for the adventurous soul. However, even a chaos magician can struggle with change on occasion. Sometimes change is something that happens to us, and it’s not always good, sometimes it is tragic and not welcome. This is where we need to allow ourselves to feel the grief, the loss and the despair without self-judgment. It is OK not to feel OK and you do not have to pretend otherwise. Eventually one will have worked through the grief, and the chaos magician, the embracer of change, will allow their old self to flutter away and build a new life on new foundations.
Having spent time working with self-change and self-initiation, the processes of recovery become smoother, as one does not cling to the old. A chaos magician is accustomed to personal metamorphosis, which I have found to be of great help in dealing with grief. The concept of, something has changed and it will never be the same again, does not hold the same fear when creating change is part of one’s personal magical practice.
It’s my opinion that all magical practices, whether it be chaos magick, Thelema, Witchcraft etc. bring the most benefits when your chosen path aids you in dealing with everyday life by increasing your choices and range of responses to life situations.
