P. Blavatsky ♥♥ Occultism is the study of occult or hidden wisdom. To the occultist it is the study of "Truth", a deeper truth that exists beneath the surface: 'The truth is always hidden in plain sight'. It can involve belief in such parapsychological phenomena as extra-sensory perception, astrology, spiritualism, numerology and lucid dreaming as well as magic (alternatively spelled and defined as magick), . There is often a strong religious element to these studies and beliefs, and many occultists profess adherence to various religion beliefs such as Gnosticism, Hermeticism, Luciferianism, Thelema, and Neopaganism. ♥♥ Studies in Occultism by H.
