Mormon Occult Secrets EXPOSED: Heretic, Gnosticism & the Temple Mystery w/ Ryan Springer!

On today's episode of the Occult Symbolism and Pop Culture with Isaac Weishaupt podcast we are joined by a special guest- a friend of mine named Ryan Springer who's studied the esoteric side of LDS Mormonism and he's here to explain how it fits into the film Heretic! We'll discuss his soon-to-be-published article on the subject which goes into topics we'll discuss on the show today: Ryan's journey from LDS to the Occult and back, Heretic themes of Western Esotericism, Gnosticism and Joseph Smith's transformative journey embedded into the LDS Temple Endowment Ceremonies. We'll discuss Sacred Spaces, human power structures, hidden knowledge, Veils, Divine Feminine, Heretic's ANTI-Endowment Ceremony with comparisons to Freemasonry, Rosicrucians, Aleister Crowley's Thelema, Magic Underwear, Hecate and more!I HIGHLY recommend you catch the video version of this episode with Ryan's presentation that I'll throw up on my video free feeds the same day as the rest of the free feeds get the audio!
