The one here on b4 is the most noticeable.

Ever felt that sudden urge to go on b4?  The egregore is accessing your connection to it.

In a way, the one here on b4 is the most autonomous one I've seen experienced yet.

I've talked about egregores variously on here at different times and have pointed out the changing nature of the B4 egregore which has changed form many times since I've been here. There is no egregore for the Law of One itself.

Wow, what? this is completely new to me. I have definitely felt sudden urges to go on B4 though.

What is an egregore? Specifically what is the current nature of the B4 egregore?

And is there an overall continuity, a 'definable identity' of the B4 egregore since the beginning of your awareness of it?

Is the reason there is no egregore for the Law of One that the Law of One is essentially all there is, it is too vast and infinite to define an egregore?

Is it kind of like the beginnings of a social memory complex?

An egregore is an entity that can form in the astral around a group and is generated by the collective thoughts, emotions and intentions within the group interaction. It isn't exclusive to groups, an individual could potentially create their own egregore or an egregore can sometimes be generated within a space itself. They can sometimes be amorphous, other time they are more consistent and concrete. The latter is usually the case when they are intentionally fed and created whereas the former tends to happen more when they emerge unintentionally, such as here on Bring4th. Different individuals will perceive it in different ways of course, since everyone has different sensitivities.

There is no egregore for the Law of One because the Law of One is a principle. Maybe we could call all of creation the egregore of the creator but I think that's a bit of a wider concept than the word egregore suggests as you say.

The egregore for Bring4th has changed forms many times and still is always shifting but it is a lot more stable now. It has shifted all across the spectrum in terms of energy, at times it has been overwhelmingly positive and other times there has been some serious negativity around. Right now it is more of a 'moderate positive'. It seems that the overall attitude of the forum has been refined through many catalysts and 'hardships' and these in turn have helped to 'mature' the image of the egregore. Where once it took all sorts of forms from fantastical to horrific, it now takes the form of a man or woman deep in study and concerned with the expansion of knowledge. I think this is a good reflection of the current atmosphere on Bring4th, which is different from much of the past 'working out of emotions' that has taken place. Surely that will always happen, but the state seems to be rather calm.

As to how to perceive it, feeling it is one way such as C_A suggests but I also will sometimes receive mental images to describe it. How to focus your consciousness upon it is hard to describe and requires familiarity with the geography of mind. I perceive 'the forum' as a current of energy, a flow which has a particular collection of vibrations which are part of it. The image and feeling that is received is just a translation of this current of intelligent energy. The egregore itself can be described as the nature of the intelligence of this flow of intelligent energy. The perception thereof is a matter of perceiving this flow. For me, I see my screen as the 'gateway' through which the vibration comes and it is through that which I 'listen', as though feeling for a vibration in the air and reflected in the mind.

Thus, when I want to disconnect from the egregore, I close the window which closes the gateway through which the energy current comes. This is also why I don't require pictures for readings because once someone has a username here they are 'in the current' and I can usually find them that way.
