Magic is the art of applying natural causes to produce surprising effects within one’s own reality, with the overarching goal of influencing the world beneath appearances in order to transform those very appearances.

 

A magician is not merely an eccentrically dressed figure who pulls a rabbit from a top hat or manipulates a deck of cards to create illusions. Magicians and witches are those capable of altering the reality around them, steering events in the direction they desire.

 

Magic is the art of modifying the external, material reality surrounding us, as well as the energetic reality—the true driving force behind all existence. It is up to us to decide whether to transform it for good or for ill.

 

It is up to us to choose the “color” of the magic we wish to practice and the tools we wish to employ.

 

It is up to us to set aside biased judgment, fear, and prejudice, and to focus our energy solely on our chosen objectives.
