it is being used in kind of a derogatory way, “mystical” describes the skills, beliefs, practices associated with the paranormal
goop is a word used to describe a sloppy, wet, maybe sticky substance
so “mystical goop” means that the writer/speaker regards interest in the mystical realm or world as silly or not important or legitimate
