the Free Order
Run Free. Run Wild.
A secret society for the temporary and the flexible
The Free Order is a secret society for the temporary and the flexible; for the horse without a herd; everyone is welcome, until they’re not.
We invite you to be initiated at your local stable, wherever that is, however long that is.
Initiation can be completed through either free labour or paid membership. To date, it can’t be quantified how many have joined The Free Order, simply because all records are destroyed shortly after each stable is erected.
Run free, run wild.
The Initiation
Guests are invited to initiate themselves through either free labour or paid membership. The choice is up to you and remember, in a secret society for the temporary and flexible, it really doesn’t matter what you choose to do so long as you choose to do something.
The Initiation Stone
At your local stable, you will be able to purchase an initiation stone for £1. What you do with that stone, is up to you. But, if you want to be initiated, you must place the stone at the altar of ‘Whippyboy’. Once placed, you are required to ‘neigh’ or ‘whinny’ to complete the initiation. You will likely be overcome with a sense of awe, friendship, and community. Do not be alarmed, this is absolutely normal.
Free Labour
Alternatively, air drying clay will be available for you to make your own clay horse to be placed amongst the existing herd. Once you have made your horse, and placed it among the others, you must neigh or whinny to complete the initiation. Again, this form of initiation is no different to the ‘Initiation Stone’ in that you will likely be overcome with a sense of awe, a completeness, and a spirit that soars like a horse leaping over the fence that once kept them from running free and wild. This is completely normal, and excellent.
