What is the true beginning of the occult path? In folklore and magical tradition, the first stage of initiation often begins with a supernatural knock - an unshakable call from the otherworld. In this episode, we trace the phenomenon through cunning folk and witchcraft lore, spirit pacts, shamanic visions, and Carlos Castaneda's accounts of meeting the spirit. From British fairy traditions to paranormal encounters and magical omens, we explore how the spirit world chooses its initiates and the timeless patterns of this mysterious calling.
