Occult knowledge has always been treated with suspicious, and there's a good reason for the taboo surrounding black magic. But knowledge itself isn't good or bad, unless perhaps you're talking about the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. This connects back to pizza via the living bread of John 6:51 via the other tree of the garden, the tree of life.

In the scientific paradigm there's no reason to think that these associations have any meaning, there's no theoretically testable mechanism. If you accept that the associations are meaningful, then that leads to the question of how does the world work, such that these things are possible?
