I hear people continually ask whether occult has become obsolete
in this day and age. I always wonder what trajectory they refer to. Belief is
always alive and well. The operator recognizes the invisible work that instills
autonomy in the divinities while recognizing the forces that drive his or her
own renewal. Symbiotic relationships are the key to these interactions. Occult
has never been simply about invocation or summoning but contact. In many ways, the UFOlogists are more occult than
traditional occultists. Whereas the occultist will construct elaborate circles
and perform complex ritualization, the UFO searcher knows instinctively that
invisible strings are being plucked every time he aims a telescope at the sky
or traverses a crop circle. The ritual is the method. Occult is not dead it
just manifests in a variety of ways. You perform occult renewal every time you
engage in love-talk while lying in bed with a significant Other or when
composing a piece of music to be heard by no one but your Self. Renewal is in
the inter-action.
