An egregore, also spelled egregor, is a concept from esoteric and occult traditions. It refers to a collective entity that emerges from the combined energies and thoughts of a group of people. This entity is fueled by the intentions, beliefs, and emotions of the group and can develop its own consciousness or influence. The word "egregore" comes from the Greek "egrégoroi," meaning "watchers" or "observers."
