This sounds more like chaote terminology than witch terminology?

I used witch to encompass all magickal practitioners. Egregores are not specific to chaos magic though it did popularise them.

Oh, I find the term "mage" to be more inclusive. I don't personally identify as a witch because I'm not a believer in wicca

The term witch predates wicca. I don't believe in it either, I think it is gender essentialist clap trap. Any magic user can be a witch. It's all personal preference. Mage is good though, but ultimately all language is imperfect.
