OC rocker @x.wrthlss.x credits occult book 'Tree of Qliphoth' for his come-up

Orange County artist @x.wrthlss.x, the face-tattooed rocker Juice Unlocked billed as the county's "newest rockstar," says one book played a role in his come-up: a copy of "Tree of Qliphoth."

In a selfie-style clip Juice Unlocked shared March 20, 2026, he shows the book on camera and calls it the secret to the universe. He didn't want to get into much detail; according to the post, he said only that it changed everything.

What he said

He tied the book to a bigger question: why millions of people make music and don't make it. From there he turned to spirituality, telling viewers to explore "the deepest depths of human consciousness."

He waved off the usual talk about controlling your reality and manifesting, then said there is something to it. Certain practices, he said, can help you "align yourself with that energy" and manifest what you want. He added that he isn't allowed to talk about the book too much.

“You know why there's like millions of people that make music and they don't make it?”

What the book is about

According to the explainer baked into Juice Unlocked's post graphic, the Tree of Qliphoth, also called the Tree of Death, is a concept in Jewish mysticism and occultism representing impure spiritual forces, often pictured as a shadow version of the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. The book's cover shows a meditating figure beneath that tree symbol, with the words "Temple of Ascending Flame" partly visible along the bottom.

“You gotta like explore your spirituality. Explore the deepest depths of human consciousness.”

Juice Unlocked asked followers whether they would take his advice and read the book. The post drew 173 likes and 128 comments.
