Here is what my thesaurus brought up;

Mystic: spiritualist, medium, shaman, sage

Mysticism: religion, theology, religious studies, spirituality, holiness

You are choosing the medium, shaman part and igmoring the spirtualist,

plus you are ignoring all the difnitions of mysticism — none of which have to do with the ococult.

Oops.

ococult.
occult

[Jeff Head]

Not ignoring anything...just indicating what my impression of the traditional meaning is as I was brought up.

I believe that over time, the definition is shifting to have less of an occult overtone...though that part of the definition still remains officially there.
