Esoterica & the Occult |
 Occultism is the practice and study of purportedly "secret" knowledge, which began to poke its head out from behind the curtain in the Christian world during the 15th century, in association with Renaissance humanism. The word itself derives from the Latin occultus, which simply means "hidden". The Occult encompasses a vast array of currents in the Western esoteric tradition (although the worldview itself draws heavily from and fetishises the Orient). Several esoteric movements and concepts particularly associated with the Occult are; alchemy, Gnosticism, neo-Platonism, Hermeticism and the Kabbalah. .
