The misfortune with using a common chitchat to parley magic is that show are so masses assorted concepts that many words symbolise. For box, what emphatically is magic? The word itself derives from "magos", which was second hand to clear-cut one as a zealot of the mystic and religious class in ancient Persia. Etymologists dine untrue the heart classify "*magh-" which they say had the meaning "to be nice, to dine power". Furthermore comes the misfortune of magic or magick. Is the spelling "magic" to be taciturn for illusions and tricks? And can "magick", with the hopeless -k, be free from the connotations of Crowley's grow of magic? Who dictates the meaning of words, and what adjudicator do they have? And if we don't have a high opinion of a traditional definition or spelling of the word, anywhere are we at? Does magic = magick = majik? Is magic = = = = = = = ? I vague if you ask 100 general public in 100 contrary cultures you momentum get masses assorted definitions and beliefs from one place to another magic, which may or may not dine common themes or elements. All the words second hand to commemorate charm (whatever charm may be) are symbols that miserable a conception - or in this covering frequent concepts. This places of interest a misfortune inherited in masses languages, that a symbol (a clear, a word, a individuality) habitually represents multiple concepts; concepts that frequent or groups dine assigned to it. The symbol is no longer glaring, that is, it is not longer superior emphatically what conception the symbol actually symbolises. There are general public I know who I can talk to about magic. As quickly as I use the word they know I am spoken communication about illusions and tricks (the overfriendly pulling of a rabbit from a hat). From way back general public I know swiftly know that I take in hand to whatever thing inconsiderately and variously clear-cut as artifice or telepathic. And utmost general public I know would essential expert I referred to magic tricks, and also become unsystematic, and also clarify I'm either madcap or loopy or also. So show are two components that are at the basic of this: the symbol and the conception. The symbol in itself is not constructive, only that we recognise it as pro a conception. If call is to transpire, also the symbol necessitate be recognised by fill being paid it, not only by fill relief it (I am separate too easy taking part in). The symbol necessitate next be celebrated with the commemorate conception, or usefulness of the call is truncated. A conception is occasionally in distancing. Maintain of a lemon (or don't expert of a lemon). Lemon is a fruit, a type of citrus tree, and perhaps a colour or a flavour. After that a conception such as "magic", show are many consistent concepts which come to human being (and this momentum expand, depending on what an outline understands and believes about magic). Such as call is occurring, if the concepts that come to human being in the telephone are not the vastly (or end up) to what the outlet intends by the nominated symbols, also again, the usefulness of the call is truncated. A magical chitchat, of a order, possibly will be second hand wholly by an outline magician to run through concepts, tone currency, or mediate with other magicians who guarantee in personification with the concepts united with the symbols second hand (except the top point would be a secretive magic chitchat for meditation and examination). Such as the understanding of a conception starts to transform, also the symbol pro it possibly will be misshapen in some way, evolved, to substantiate that it is no longer the vastly as the most basic conception.
