History of International Occult Day

Occultism is as old as humans. We do not know who or what started it. But we do know that the word was coined somewhere around the 16th century in Europe. The term ‘occult’ refers to practices outside organized religions that have roots in magic, the supernatural, mythical beasts, and magical concoctions. Occult practices also include searching for oneself. The search for the meaning of life, the profane thoughts and messages one ought to feel from deep-dwelling to the inner self, the quest to find spiritual awakening, etc. are all part of occult practices. One might question the relevance of occultism in modern times. But occult factions are still active, and there are more than a million people in the U.S.A. who believe in it. Occultism is fast gaining momentum, just like in the old days. But it is different now. Occult practices are not about world domination through dubious practices. Now it is more about conquering the inner self and finding the truth beyond human comprehension. Or so it is in the general case.

Western occultism has deep roots in macrocosm — microcosm concepts. It emphasizes the connection between human beings and cosmic concepts and structures, both physical and psychological. Through it, people can gain enlightenment and powers beyond their natural state. Such paranormal powers are never proved, but there are always figures in history who claim to have such powers. The most prominent among such people are usually the founders of some religion or major movement. Although prophetic abilities are not a guarantee with occultism, it claims to have some ways to find meaning in a meaningless world. It helps practitioners tap into their full potential, hidden within the soul. Modern occultism is about empowerment.

Modern society considers occultism a pseudoscience. Occult Day, on the other hand, is devoted to dwelling on the mystery of what is unknown. It is a day for experimentation and the discovery of powers that have yet to be sensed and discovered — a day to try to find the full potential of the soul and nature around us.
