Welcome to chaosmonks.org. We are the online arm of small communities of magickians and mystics who have gathered together to further our growth as true human beings. We share some ideas and approaches, but realize that we are all individuals, and we support one another in our efforts.

26 September 2006 : Life and our minds are really a roller-coaster sometimes, eh? I'm still in Tucson, attending the yoga program. I've met a wonderful, magickal woman and we have decided to walk along this path together. And she and I both wish for a community, a "tribe" if you will, of like-minded people. This dovetails with my interest in monasticism and alternative ways of living. Although I believe that chaos magick needs a monastic tradition of sorts, I am no longer limiting my thoughts to that specific path/approach; this website, though, will still focus on the chaos magick path. This "new monasticism" I'm envisioning is large enough to encompass many different traditions. I keep saying I'll write more, but haven't. I'll try to do so as soon as I can. Embrace the Chaos, my friends.

15 August 2006 : Yet another minor news update arrives! Things are calm, yet active, here. Hxaosanto has started a yoga teacher training program that will last until December. I'd suggest that, if you haven't tried yoga, do so; it's amazing, and full of magick. And we've got a bedroom for rent here for magickians/yogis/martial artists/alternative calm types - $400/mo, all bills paid. Drop Hxaosanto a note about yoga, the room, or monasticism, as you wish. Embrace the Chaos!

17 June 2006 : What a long, strange trip it's been! Over the past 3 months I've embarked on a lot of changes in my life. For a short time (almost a month), one of the people who was interested in the monastery lived with me. We had many good conversations. I guess you could say that the monastery had 2 residents for that time. I've also been e-mailed by a couple of other people who expressed interest in the idea of the monastery; one of them donated for website upkeep (thanks!). My ideas about the monastery are shifting a bit, mostly towards a more multidisciplinary pattern; I'll write about it soon. Drop Hxaosanto an e-mail if you have ideas, suggestions, or comments.

25 March 2006 : OK, make that 3 people; another person who is currently living in Phoenix contacted me and is interested in helping form the monastery. So, I've started corresponding with all 3 of them. Personally, I'm leaning towards an "urban monastery" idea right now, very similar to The Lone Star of Chaos. I'll let you know how things go. Oh! And I added a section to the site: monks. If you'd like to be added, write a bio, maybe include a pic, send it to Hxaosanto, and he'll add it. Embrace the Chaos!

18 March 2006 : It's been an interesting couple of weeks. I've had 2 people contact me via e-mail: one lives in Phoenix, and another just moved to Tucson. The site traffic shows that people are reading things here. I get the feeling that, were I or others to put more energy into this site and into the monastery idea itself, it would grow. So, I'll try to do some housecleaning and updating of the site. Does anyone else have any suggestions or comments? If so, e-mail Hxaosanto at Yahoo.
