Freemasonry is certainly not occult in the recent popular meaning of that term referring to fortune telling, diabolism, the supernatural, and the like. But the original meaning of the word was hidden or secret, just as the literal meaning of esoteric is inner or for the initiated. As already said, Freemasonry has its secrets, which are for those initiated into it.
