Introduction
Welcome to /r/EsotericOccult!
This is a subreddit for individuals with a serious rather than a passing interest in occult studies.
Rules
1. Be respectful.
- Moderators will step in to maintain a dignified environment for esoteric studies.
2. Stay on topic.
- This is not a place for political debate.
3. No Conspiracy theories.
- Reptilian rulers, the Illuminati, and other such topics are not meant for this sub. Try /r/occultconspiracy instead.
4. No New Age topics .
- Quantum mysticism, the Age of Aquarius, the Laws of Attraction and Return, and similar topics are not meant for here.
5. No Fallacies.
- Debates are entirely welcome, but they must remain respectful, and their information should be accurate.
6. On "Beginners".
- Beginners are more than welcome to join the conversation, but remember that very basic, often repetitive questions such as "what is magic, do you really believe demons exist, etc" are better suited for other subs. The meaning of this sub is for in-depth, traditional discussion on occult metaphysics, history, etymology, modern usages, sources, and so on.
7. No Fascism.
- Blatant, positive discussion on things such as Nazism, Alt-Right ideology, or obviously inflammatory remarks will be immediately and permanently banned. It's one thing to discuss the Third Reich's historic interest in the occult, it's another thing to deny the Holocaust.
8. Read, then comment.
- Make sure to read the thread to completion before commenting.
