Psycunck (noun) | Pronunciation: /sai-kʌŋk/
A Psycunck is an occult grifter who weaponizes pop psychology, self-help jargon, and esoteric mysticism to justify their spiritual scam. Unlike the basic Cunck, who just overcharges for PDFs, or the Adeptus Cunckus, who has ascended into full PayPal omnipotence, a Psycunck preys on followers through therapy-speak, gaslighting, and manipulation disguised as wisdom.
A Psycunck is defined by:
Using therapy buzzwords to silence critics (“You’re just projecting your unhealed wounds onto me.”)
Gaslighting students when they ask questions (“If you don’t understand, that’s just your shadow self resisting the work.”)
Framing their own grift as a psychological necessity (“Spiritual teachers deserve compensation for the energy they hold for you.”)
Releasing ‘freebie rituals’ to lure in trust, only to later push high-ticket mentorships.
Screeching about ‘low vibrational energy’ anytime someone points out their contradictions.
Quoting Jung, but only the parts that let them evade accountability.
Rebranding their ghosting as ‘energetic boundaries.’
Claiming their political doomposting is ‘shadow integration.’
A Psycunck doesn’t just sell magic—they sell parasitic guru psychology, convincing followers that their doubt is the problem and that healing = sending more money.

"He gave me a ‘freebie ritual,’ told me I was on the path, then told me I needed a $900 course to ‘fully integrate’ it. I got Psycuncked."
"I questioned the ritual framework, and the Psycunck told me I was just afraid of stepping into my own power. Then they blocked me."
"She ghosted me for months, then called it ‘sacred space-holding.’ Classic Psycunck move."
"I realized I was dealing with a Psycunck when he told me that questioning his $600 astrology mentorship was just me projecting ‘scarcity trauma.’"
"A true Psycunck doesn’t refund—he just says, ‘Your reaction to this is the real spiritual lesson.’"
