    Yes. Magic works if you redefine magic to be different than what people typically call magic.

    People can control their minds more than they realize, and it improves with practice. Some people wrap that in unnecessary mysticism.

      “Magic” has many definitions. There’s fantasy magic, stage magic, Hollywood magic.

      Magick has had a consistent definition of “the science and art of causing change to occur in conformity with will” for a century. The “mysticism” is a very potent system of exploiting the associative nature of the mind to focus one’s will, and train the subconscious.
