The occult
Häufig gestellte Fragen
The term occult is derived from the Latin word occultus, which literally translates to hidden or concealed. Rather than just referring to spooky rituals, it represents a vast pursuit of knowledge of the hidden. It encompasses the various landmarks of reality that are missing from the official map, focusing on the secret layers of the world that most people walk past without noticing.
The occult acts as a catch-all for phenomena and ideas that fall outside the traditional boundaries of mainstream science and organized religion. While lab reports and Sunday sermons explain much of our world, the occult handles the intellectual waste basket of the unexplained. This includes everything from parapsychological experiments and UFO abductions to ancient vampire legends and fairy folklore that institutions often ignore.
For those seeking it, the occult is primarily about power. This power comes from the unique ability to interpret esoteric symbols and signs in architecture or nature that others typically overlook. By understanding this secret layer of reality, a person gains a deeper perspective on the world. It is an itch of suspicion that there is more to our existence than what is presented in the official story.
