DEREK HUNTER of LOVE CHAOS

EPISODE NOTES:

The Following is an excerpt from the foreword, “Unbind: Faith In Doubt”, I composed for Derek Hunter’s LOVE CHAOS IN THEORY & PRACTICE, now available via AMAZON.

“…Love Chaos, in its first iteration as an artistic, if not elusive, self-published book came into my purview during the early days of my podcasting.  I started the podcast, PRAGMAGICK, as a means to glean and document practices that inspire or enhance the creative process of life – attempting to mine revelations, to discern the powers within and without– the furies that somehow lifted me from that desert soil so many years ago.  This is where Derek Hunter arrived, discussing Love Chaos on the Occult of Personality podcast.

Never before had I heard a practitioner, a magick-minded artist, back up the constructs of their philosophies with such a selfless purpose.  These occultists tend to be quite dour about the outer. Derek is not.

Love Chaos was a “guiding principle & philosophy” that he was inspired to construct from experiences within his own struggles as well as his hallowed work with the Amity Foundation. He actively guides, rehabilitating the once crooked.  He won’t ever admit that. Humble, humbled and all too ready to lift others.

These were the credentials of a good man.  These were the merits of a phoenix. Derek is a blueprint of retribution in his own right, via his own rites.

Derek’s self-rehabilitation, creation of incorruptible constants and elastic absolutes shine as a foundry of might.    Derek kicked against the prids like all of us, he fell like most of us, but he turned like few us, and he helps like none of us.  

Within this text, Derek weaves his phoenix folklore with an astute and approachable grasp on psychology, art and magick with proof-in-the-pudding anecdotes only a survivor can sew.  It’s an unpretentious and palatable prose. 

From survivor, to forgiver, practitioner and sage, Derek is someone I hold in the highest regard and  I have a sort of future-regret for not being allowed this text those many years ago, during my own phoenix folklore’s inception. Yet, the phoenix is made to rise and burn again, and this is a gift to those in that liminal cinder. To those forever in that liminal cinder, like me…

…The guiding principle of LOVE CHAOS is not a manual, it’s not a manifesto – it’s a travelogue for inner alchemy. For creating your own mythology, your own folklore.  For forgiveness.”
