Good day dear community, at the beginning I would like to welcome you all to my new contribution and hope you had a day which brought some interesting experiences into your life! Today I would like to talk about occultism and I am happy if you can learn new things.
For hundreds of years, people have been fascinated by supernatural phenomena and even if the topic is much older, the term occultism only became popular later and is derived from the Latin word occultus, which means as much as hidden. Occultism itself is to be regarded as diverse and can also be associated with various psychic phenomena for which there is no exact explanation and themes such as spirituality, mysticism or fear-relieving things can also be counted as occultism. Much of this knowledge was previously kept strictly hidden and made accessible only to those who were really interested in it and knew how to deal with it and there are many parallels between occult customs or secret knowledge and a large part of it can also be related to supernatural forces which were later also investigated in parapsychology. In ancient cultures, many of these phenomena were probably even more associated with unknown forces and in the later course, more answers could be provided which can be related to the further development of research and a clear change from religion to science can also be recognised which, however, should not mean that occultism and religion have separated. It was never the mass that had dealt with these practises and at certain times such as in the Middle Ages people who had dealt with occult things were often strongly persecuted or attacked like alchemists who dealt a lot with occult practices in hidden and were often attacked for it.
Witches were also known for having practised occult things and were often wrongly strongly demonised and there were even times when people had found these poor women guilty of pretty much everything and if something happened somewhere in the village, the witches were suspected of being behind it. In the later course, more and more currents of occultism developed and in more areas it could be seen that occult things were practised and it was also marketed more and more and in many books, occult practises or rituals could be found and later even own symbols as well as cryptic texts were developed to be able to share occult practises more hidden. Many people have also begun to make a business out of it and the recipient here was of course the curiosity of humans and there were numerous influential personalities who had dealt with occult practises such as levitation and invested large sums in the research or documentation of these practises. Occultism is to be regarded as a diverse area which has developed more and more and is nowadays closely associated with the research of supernatural phenomena and is also closely connected with parapsychology and attracts researchers daily to deal with certain psi phenomena.
Many thanks for stopping by and I hope you could learn something new about this topic! I captured these pictures with my Camera Sony Alpha 6000 plus 55-210 mm lens.
I didn't have much knowledge of this. I may have heart about some version of it through various movies or TV series. I learned something in detail here. Thanks.
Happy that you were able to learn something new dear @hafiz34

I think you are talking about black magic by Occultism, black magic is true but it only harms people that's why people used to attack witch women. It is basically a satanic work
Occultism is probably often pushed into certain corners, it’s to be regarded as an term of supernatural phenomena and is probably often put in a false light. Magic is only one of many facets of occultism and not to be considered as its own subject, especially interesting are probably the psi phenomena.
