magic is nothing more than trickery and optical illusion.

Magic and it's history have been so altered throughout the years that no one today- besides those that have committed their lives to researching it- really understand what it was. A long, long time ago before Christianity (yes there was such a time), there was a rekigion called Paganism. Paganism is the relegion that most of today's "magical" stories root form. The Pagans used a pentegram as there symbol and believed in many different Gods. The most powerful God for them was the hunting God, whom was depicted as a half man half hooved being with horns (sound familiar). It wasn't until the start of Christianity that this religion was considered bad or evil as it as today. And yes, among many of the ancient practices of this relegion was what would be refferred to today as magic. What many people do not know or even attempt to understand is that prior to the start of Christianity many people were Pagan's. And it was the Christian's whom made this religion a thing of the past along with many other ancient religions. Contrary to popular belief this was not because everyone believed in Christianity, it was because they were forced too- beleive it or not Christian's in history actually killed those who refused to convert. You don't have to take my word for it- do your own research on paganism or witchcraft. It is important to remember that just because you don't understand something- it doesn't mean that it is bad, at the same time- just because you believe in something- it doesn't mean that it can do no wrong.

I once saw a one legged witch turn a storm.
My first ritual, we were all comfortable throughout the ritual, but the instant the ritual ended, we realized that the room was cold. The heat hadn't been on and the whole time and it was spring equinox.
I do spiritual healing with singing bowls. I play the bowl in someone's hand, and feel the vibrations as they extend through the person, and can tell them where the vibrations are and what they're doing.
I used to work with a Reiki master who could put healing energy into people and tell people many details about their lives while we were doing our energy work. Very specific things
I have this one singing bowl which plays differently, responding to the place where it's played, or what chakra it's played on. I use it to locate blockages for spiritual healing. I also used it to find the perfect place to set up my tent the first time I camped in Kansas. One night the wind ripped through the camp. By morning, just about every tent had blown over except mine.
For a while, a friend and I maintained a karmic connection through an object which was divided and each of us kept half, and sometimes I would smell something, and call her up, and it was exactly what she was smelling.
"Did you just make cookies?"
"Was the dog just breathing in your face?"
"Did you just disinfect something?"

Magic is as real as your mind will let it be!!
To the non-believer, the answer is no!
But to the creative, imaginative, possability allowing, freedom of expression allowing, anything can happen, believer, the answer is Yes!
It's all just a matter of who you are. How you live your life. And what you are willing to let life be!
I believe that anything is possible! It's a big world, why cant there be room for magic?

Magic is FULLY truly. But it's demonic. Anyone who practices actual magic has demons of their lifestyles. There is LOTS of magic books, however a lot of them don't seem to be "truly magic" I imply, in case you had a youngster, you would not desire them to play with hearth, however as an alternative they play with lighters and matchsticks. (with out lighting fixtures them) Most humans could now not like that. So although you're training "false truly" magic, it's nonetheless "pretending" to "play" with demons.

spells work for me, it's all the power of intention, focus and symbolism.
BTW, isn't the formation of a baby magic in a way?
so yes, on both counts, it's real.

It can be. It depends on your definition. Stage show magicians are just trickery but if you are taking about magic spells, I think that if you follow them to the letter and truly believe you may get a result.

it is totally real. All magic is is the forces which exsist all around us. Call it physics, call it nature, call it God. call it chi... it is what it is. Wiches and wizards are just people who have found a ways to harness, use or manipulate thes forces.

Chris Angel and David Blaine are pretty good, but I'm afraid it is all slight of hand. It's as real as you want it to be.

Sleight of hand is all it is! And throw in a little bit of bullsh*t for good measure!
