In this captivating episode (#33) of Vocation, host Matty welcomes back esoteric scholar Michael Tsarion for a profound continuation into the occult, centered on the provocative maxim “Do What Thou Wilt.” They examine the three ages of the occult from Isis to the rebellious spirit of Horus, the eternal tension between individuality and society, the suffering of the outsider, the dark night of the soul, the transformative role of anxiety and repression, and the mechanics of the grand conspiracy. From love under will and the divergent paths of magic versus mysticism to the hijacking of esoteric traditions and idealism as a bridge to higher truth, this conversation challenges everything we think we know about freedom, authenticity, and humanity’s quest for genuine liberation. A powerful and illuminating journey deeper into esoteric wisdom and spiritual rebellion.
