The types and colours of magical practice

I think you liked my last video (in french) on the types of witches according to astrological sign and I've had a few suggestions for my new video. I'll take note of all your suggestions. However, one subject came up more often than the others: What are the types and colours of magic?

First of all, it's important to know that you don't need to categorise yourself specifically into one type of magic. You can use several types or colours of magic in your practice. If, for example, you want to use white magic rituals to harm someone, that becomes black magic. It's the intention that counts. And, just as in life, nothing is ever totally right or wrong!

Light colours

White magic

In white magic, great importance is attached to the magical correspondences between the elements (phases of the Moon, days of the week, numbers, colours, candles, herbs, stones, etc.). This type of magic is based on the principle of "live and let live". White magic consists of doing good, without trying to influence the destiny of others, and always trusting in the Universe. It is basically a matter of working on oneself.

For example, you are desperate to heal someone. You want this for their good and you perform a ritual to help them overcome their physical or psychological problem. However, the person you are trying to help may not be ready for this. You will then be trying to influence their destiny, and in doing so, you may be causing them to miss out on something they need to understand in their life. It's a fine line, but an important one. That's why in white magic, we try to work on ourselves first. And rather than asking to win over a particular person or get a specific job, it's better to ask the Universe what's best for us.

Pink magic

Pink magic, which is a derivative of white magic, involves rituals relating to friendship, love and romance, without ever influencing the destiny of others. This type of magic can be used to resolve conflicts within a couple or to promote romance or a warm atmosphere within a group or a home. It is magic linked to communication and feelings. Ideally, the ritual should be performed with the agreement of others, as it often involves more than one person.

Green magic

Green magic is a derivative of white magic that focuses on rituals involving the elements of nature, in particular the weather, stones, trees, forests and herbs. It can be Elvish and fairy magic, but also Druidism and shamanism. This type of magic can involve animals. It is also used to help magical plants and herbs grow better.

In-between colours

Grey magic

Grey magic is associated with neither good nor evil. It is based on a laudable intention, but it remains an attempt to influence the destiny of others without their permission, which means that it does not quite meet the criteria for white magic.

Red magic

Red magic refers to sexual magic, in other words, it is linked to love and sexual rituals. For example, it may involve using the energy generated at the moment of orgasm to direct it towards the object of our desires. This practice must be carried out in agreement with your partner.

This kind of magic is rather controversial, as some consider it to be good, while others take the opposite view. It is sometimes used to bring back a former lover, which can raise questions about the purity of the intentions behind such rituals.

Dark side colour

Black magic

Black magic is used solely for evil. Rituals involve exerting power over people or influencing events in order to get what you want, against your will. Rituals are performed for personal satisfaction. This type of magic includes everything to do with witchcraft, bewitchments and spells. It poses a real risk to mental health. Indeed, it is not uncommon for those who indulge in this type of magic to end up losing control and suffering the consequences.

Types of light magic

Wicca

Wicca is a practice of magic created by Gerald Brosseau Gardner, a British esoteric writer who died in 1964. It is a religious movement based on ancient pagan religions. Followers work with gods and goddesses, in particular Hecate, the goddess of the moon in Greek mythology. Their altars will feature divine representations of the Great Mother Goddess and the Horned God. The philosophy of Wicca can be summed up in the following precept: "Do as you please, as long as it harms no one". It is also based on the Law of the Triple Return, which states that what you do will be returned to you threefold, regardless of whether it is positive or negative.

Angelic magic

Angelic magic uses angels and archangels in rituals. This magic is derived from certain religions. The altar is decorated with angelic representations.

Intuitive magic

This is my favourite magic and the one I use every day. I'll be talking more about it in a forthcoming book, but also in future videos on my YouTube channel.

Intuitive magic is a little-known practice that requires you to connect with your intuition and your 6th sense. This practice involves learning to trust yourself and to recognise the signs. It does not appeal to divinities, but rather to the energy of the Universe. Intuitive magic is based on the belief that we are part of a greater whole, a universal energy, and that everything is interconnected. Rituals are performed using the power of intention and by connecting to the desired frequency. Taking the time to concentrate on a ritual amplifies the intention and gives it a high energy vibration. In intuitive magic, everything is created from intuition and the feeling of the moment. It's a rather spontaneous kind of magic.

I practise intuitive magic. In this way, I modify my altar, i.e. my place of healing, according to my moods, my energies and the seasons. I use the magical correspondences to provide a guideline, but I develop my rituals spontaneously according to how I feel and what I need. In short, I invent my own formula based on various correspondences, such as the phases of the Moon, the days of the week, stones, plants, incense and colours. This practice is linked to everything to do with divination, clairvoyance and clairaudience, among other things.

Types of 'in-between' magic

Chaos magic

There are several definitions associated with chaos magic. Basically, it is based on the principle that "nothing is true, everything is permitted", meaning that it is our perceptions that create our reality. In fact, it's a deconditioning of thought in which nothing really exists except in our own eyes. In other words, the only truth is that there is no absolute truth. This philosophy is based on a very open mind. Practitioners do not necessarily call upon specific deities, but they will not hesitate to invoke different gods and goddesses to create a more powerful entity. This magic can be a mixture of different beliefs; there is no particular dogma. Instead of using everything preconceived and adopting very precise ways of doing things, you reinvent yourself with each ritual, instinctively and 'chaotically', but in a good way.

I invite you to read more about this type of magic, which is very interesting, even if it's not the one I use.

Dark side" type of magic

I'm not going to dwell at length on these types of magic, as I don't believe in them at all and strongly advise against them. Nevertheless, I'd like to list them here to give you a complete picture.

Satanism

Followers of Satanism worship the fallen angel Satan, also known as Lucifer or Beelzebub. They use black magic to achieve their ends, magic that is known to do evil and that can lead to serious aberrations. The thirst for power can sometimes lead to serious mental health problems.

Goétie (pronounced "go-é-si")

Practitioners of goétie invoke demons in their rituals to obtain what they desire, always by practising black magic.

Necromancy

Necromancy is an ancient practice used for divination. It consists of questioning the dead and using corpses to obtain information. Rather macabre, I agree!
