Occultism

Occultism refers to a set of practices and beliefs that explore hidden or secret knowledge about the universe, spirituality, and the self. It often involves mysticism, which seeks a direct experience of the divine or a deeper reality beyond ordinary perception. Occultism can include astrology, alchemy, magic, and various esoteric traditions that aim to uncover spiritual truths and connect with unseen forces. Practitioners believe that through study and practice, they can gain insights into life, existence, and the nature of reality that are not available through conventional understanding.
