Indubitably, Magick is one of the subtlest and most difficult of the sciences and arts. There is more opportunity for errors of comprehension, judgement and practice than in any other branch of physics.

About This Quote

Magick is a method of achieving results by the use of rituals and symbolic language. The practices of Magick are built upon a system of symbolism wherein letters, numbers, colors and symbols are used to represent things from the natural world. The magicians who practice this art believe that through this system they can contact spirits and forces from the spiritual world. In turn, these spirits and forces can be used to change the physical world into a preferred state.
