MAGIC. TIME. BEAUTY
All are held in the eyes of the beholder and all are, and mean, different things to different peoples.
High Magic, Ritual Magic, Kitchen Witch'in, Earth Magic, The Power of Prayer, Belief, Meditation, Concentration of Will, call it what you like. It is the ability to influence the material world by the intervention of powers or forces not of this realm or not yet fully understood and catalogued by the Science of the day.
Coincidence, and a chain of events leading to a certain conclusion, may just as easily be thought of as Magic, where there was clearly the intent, as any other of a Supernatural appearance. It is worth noting here that many Practising Magicians, principally those involved in Earth Magic and Mysteries, would not view things as or of a Supernatural nature, more of a very Natural, and as yet unexplained nature.
The very nature of Magic is that it is a way in which we the Practitioner can influence the turn of events. With this must come a certain responsibility, and poses many questions of Ethics and Morality. These questions are best, and can in any event only be answered by the practitioner in question.
Do What thou Wilt, Be it in love and harm none. This is in fact little better than Hitler's justification for the Holocaust, and I'm afraid sorry is not good enough!
Each and every one of us has a responsibility for our actions. It's the price we pay for freedom of will and yes, call it Karma or whatever, someone must pay the piper at the end of the day.
We, each and every one of us, must justify our actions - in the first instance to ourselves and in the same instance to our God/dess.
All we do, we do in their Name/s also, I don't Know about you or the Christian God, but I for one wouldn't wish my name to be taken in vain.
Live and let Live is all well and good as far as it goes.
You have been gifted Freedom of will, use it wisely.
