About this listen

Explore the occult from ancient times to the modern day with one of its most respected scholars and practitioners.

Take an enlightening journey through occult history, exploring 100 dramatic incidents, arcane knowledge, and key historical figures from around the world. John Michael Greer delves into two millennia of tradition, from the earliest alchemists to pagan rituals; from the philosopher's stone to cabala, the first tarot, and the Knights Templar; and from the first horoscopes to fortune-telling trials and the birth of modern witchcraft, or Wicca.

This is an interesting listen, but as other reviews may state, it’s really just a list of dates, with snippets of information regarding all male figures, rather than in-depth information about the Occult itself. Still worth a listen if the occult is something that interests you.

Concise, informative and interesting...but not what I was expecting.
