In the Psycheverse

Psyche consistently challenges and interrogates authority—whether it's institutional (policing, moderation), spiritual (gurus and teachers), astrological (power dynamics in birth charts), or social (community hierarchies and naming rights). The show treats authority as something to be questioned rather than accepted, often examining how it's wielded, abused, or undermined through folklore, personal conflict, and occult frameworks.
