Mark Booth: The Secret History of the Universe
Earth AncientsJul 25, 2026
Author Mark Booth returns to Earth Ancients to discuss his new book, The Secret History of the Universe, which argues that many great modern scientists drew on ancient mystical and occult traditions. He describes how pioneers of quantum physics turned to Kabbalah, Hermeticism, and Indian mysticism to make sense of the strange behavior of particles, and how figures like Newton, Tesla, Pauli, and Penrose seemed to receive insights almost fully formed. Booth also suggests that the universe may be filled with non-biological intelligences, linking the ancient Watchers of the Book of Enoch to modern AI and what he calls a 'new polytheism.'
