  • Yes, as a practitioner of over a decade of course I do. However, what you are asking about isn't really magick. It would be telekinesis for the first two. It is rare and causes heart problems. As for the last, I'm skeptical, but am open to the fact that anything is possible.

    I do know for a fact you can use glamourie or a spell to make things less noticeable.

    Source(s): Life experience. You may also wish to choose to look into the meanings of 'magic' and 'magick' they are not the same. Hope I helped.

    Absolutely not. It's all supernatural horse$hit, although like any religion including scientology, there will always be gullible people out there willing to eat it up without any proof that it exists.

    It's the same with the Evangelical tradition's claims that people "speak in tongues." If you read Matt Taibbi's excellent book "The Great Derangement" you'll understand that the whole speaking in tongues thing is just a person playing along to an act. Ditto for magik. It's for people who willfully act a part, as if in a play, only they convince themselves (on some level..the extent of their conviction is debatable) that it's real.

    Making things move with the laws of physics? Sure, I'll believe in that. Things disappearing from the original space they occupied, that is physics too. Floating, is just an issue of what weighs more.

    Real magic is far more complicated.

    I believe magick exists but not for the purposes you describe.

    Magick is dependent on people's belief in it for its existence. The more people believe in it, the more magick (also called mana) will exist.

    The tricks you describe are parlour tricks and unworthy of mana. Mana appears in the ordering of Nature - in the birth of baby animals, in the new growth of plants and trees and in the way Nature works together to achieve a harmonious whole.

    And you can see it anytime you care to look.

    Magick exists, yes. Making things float or disappear? Well, I've never seen that sort of flashy, showy magick outside of professional illusionists, and then it's simply a trick. Magick is much more subtle, in my experience, much less likely to make you drop your eyeballs into your rick crispies. hings like clarity, or healing, or getting rid of jealousy within yourself. Magick exists, just as prayer works, and for the same reasons. Faith and the power of the human mind.

  • "Magick" has little to do with pulling rabbits out of hats or making the Empire State building disappear.

    If you mean magick as in the Crowley-esque sense of "the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will", then yes. I do believe it exists.

    It sounds like you are either talking about stage magic (which obviouslly does exist) or TV magic that Hollywood writers make up for their supernatural characters.

    Real magic exists as do a variety of paranormal abilities but they're not what you think they are.
