Step-by-step procedures: what you need, when to do them, and what can go wrong.
A procedure
Build an egregore
Charter, name, mark, first ritual and first feeding for a group construct.
What it is
To make a group's shared attention explicit and bounded.
At a glance
- When
- The day and hour of the chosen planet for the first meeting; the review on the agreed date.
How to do it
- Write the charter: purpose, members, boundaries, feeding, review, close.
- Choose the aspect and generate the shared sigil.
- Hold a first meeting or ritual that uses the sigil.
- Agree the feeding schedule and the steward.
- Log the first feeding and the review date.
- At the review, read the charter and change one thing.
What you need
- A shared document
- A shared sigil
- A calendar
- A steward
A worked example
The 'Saturn Room' charters a quarterly project, meets on Sundays, pins the sigil, and reviews at the end of the quarter.
What can go wrong
- The charter has no close or no way to leave.
- The group has a sigil but no feeding schedule.
- The steward becomes the only person who can close it.
Background
Keeping a record
The charter, the sigil, the first feeding line and the review.
