How Do I Perceive Occult Definition

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


The Occult is a victim of wrong understanding of the term, a victim of bad points of views and intolerance for different beliefs. Many people would like to explore the subject of the occult, but they’re afraid – afraid of the environment they live in. All of this, because most people do not understand what the occult really is.

How Do I Perceive Occult Definition

How to define “occult”? Occult as term describes hidden, or secret knowledge – as everyone can figure this out by looking into dictionary, or Wikipedia. But the meaning of the word is deeper than this. The Occult is a system of beliefs and practices towards greater understanding of the universe and our life. Within these beliefs and systems we can see:

  • Believe in the afterlife – believe that death is not the end.
  • Magical practice - meant to influence the universe, or acquire information about it.
  • Spiritual practices – and self-improvement practices too, guidelines and rules that are meant to direct us, so we could be better people.
  • Learning and exploring - such simple things like reading or experimenting, meant to improve our understanding of the universe.

Psychic abilities are part of the Occult. Norse runes are part of the Occult. Even eastern philosophies are part of the Occult in some way. The occult is a path towards illumination. And everyone should walk his or her own path.

No Evil Here

The Church, as well as many religions want to persuade people that the Occult is bad, and evil. This is clearly visible in case of Christianity. But there’s nothing evil in the Occult – in some wicked practices, yes, but not in the Occult. Believe it or not – but religion is also the Occult. Some hidden, secret knowledge that every religious practitioner should find by his own.  As I already mentioned in my article about sacred space, even religious practices are in reality – magical practices.

You might hear different things, but do not be mislead. Not occult nor religion is better than the other one. Occult is religion, religion is occult. Those are just different philosophical systems. And the reason why, for example, Christianity often call the occult practices evil, nearly subjects of Devil worship, it’s quite simple. It’s all business.

The Path Towards Illumination

Oh it is, pure business. People give money to Church. Church uses money for its own good. The more people blindly believe, the more people give money. Religion was supposed to lead to understanding, to illumination. But with time, it leads nowhere. Religious movements cause dead and destruction, this is what I call evil. There is no God involved here any more, God was left behind because it was useless.

I see it clearly in Catholic Mass – quite some time ago, the priest was facing the altar – and everyone was praying to God. These days, the priest is facing people, and people are praying to the priest, without even noticing it. So where is the occult in all of this? Well – the occult remained a true path to illumination. A path, on which everyone needed to seek his own truth, God, experiences, understanding. In the occult everything is about exploration and experiencing, not about blind fate.

Religions saw this – and they decided such competition is bad for business. So, let’s make all of this occult stuff evil and let’s prohibit people from seeking illumination. If they would do this, we would lost our money.

Walk Your Own Path

The occult is about walking your own path. Reading books, experiencing things, practicing and exploring different magical systems, studying different beliefs. And more than that, the occult is about self-growth, and becoming better person. You want to be an occultist? Walk your own path – deny blind fate, trust your mind, and deny blind religion that is causing pain and destruction.

What is your thought? What is your own occult definition?
