BLACK MAGIC SPELLS 2006

Black magic is often seen as the branch of magic used to perform evil acts or draw on malevolent powers. Many believe black magic is usually invoked to kill, injure, cause destruction, or for personal gain. Black magic is normally a term used to describe a form of ritual that is not approved of by a group or person, however not everything named black magic is truly being done by the practitioner with malevolent intentions. Most using this meaning for black magic are not practicing the magic they are describing. In the Inquisition, Christians were afraid of witches and warlocks practicing evil black magic. In modern times, witches and warlocks will use the term to describe the bad magic they do not do in contrast with the good white magic they do practice.
 

The differences between black magic and white magic are debated, and several theories that compare and contrast the two branches include the All as One theory, the No Connection theory, and the Separate but Equal theory.

All as One: All forms of magic are evil, or black, magic. The religions that maintain this opinion include most branches of Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism and Hinduism. This view generally associates black magic with Satanism. Ironically, some people on the left-hand path would agree that all magic is the same. The belief would not be that all magic is evil, but rather that morality is in the eyes of the beholder. Unlike more orthodox religions, these people believe that all magic can have good and bad consequences. The interpretation of what is good and bad is thought to change for each person instead of the type of magic.
No Connection: Black and white magic are both forms of magic, but are completely different from the base up, and are accomplished differently, even if achieving similar effects. This stance is the one most often presented in fiction, including the Harry Potter series, at least in part.
Separate but Equal: Black and white magic are exactly the same thing, differentiated only by their end goals. Under this belief, the same spell could be either white or black; it is determined by the end result. The majority of religions follow this belief, as does the remainder of fiction that does not follow the No Connection theory.

Prayer in black magic is passivity and destruction, in an attitude of humiliation and worship. Prayer in white magic is work and creation, in an attitude of determination and respect. The disciple of black magic does evil with the hope that some good will emerge out of it through a miraculous violation of the laws of nature. The disciple of white magic does good by consenting to an effort appraised as the least evil according to the laws of nature. Priests of black magic invoke authority as the source of knowledge, and claim that the ways of their gods are unfathomable to anyone but them. Priests of white magic propose conjectures that are subject to the open review of everyone's reason and experience, and gaining insight into their divinities is the very essence of their religious practice. Priests of black magic extend their cult by subjecting the infidels to their creed, by humiliating and degrading other people. Priests of white magic extend their religion by subjecting their beliefs to the criticism of other people, by freeing and bettering themselves. Believers of black magic are the slaves of their gods. Believers of white magic are the masters of their gods.

Black magic and white magic coexist in traditional and instituted religions. They are two opposite poles of behaviour between which are each of our acts. Black magic always wins in appearance3; you will always see it dominate the established institutions, glorified by formal rites and astonishing shows. But it is white magic that actually makes the world go round, even if it requires discernment to see that; it is white magic that continuously adapts to the world, from which stems all creation, that serves as the basis for civilization itself.

There is an opposition between Good and Evil, but it is not the cosmic struggle proposed by the priests of the cult of the dead; it is not a conflict between superior gods, where Good would be to submit to the god of one priest rather than to other gods. On the contrary, it is the opposition between on the one hand a culture of destruction, of humiliation and of spectacle, and on the other hand, a culture of creation, pride and work.
