Does Black Magic Really Work? All You Need To Know About Black Magic

For as long as evil has existed there has been good. The history of duality goes as far back as the time that humankind began thinking. For as long as there is darkness, there must be light. The same goes for magic, the duality of magic goes from black magic to white magic. Black magic consists of the dark realm of magic and witchcraft. Black magic is known as dark magic and is traditionally used to bring about supernatural powers that are used for personal reasons (or gains). Black magic has a malicious background in which its practitioners are known as Satanists, shamans, or voodoo. Black magic uses the practice of empowering evil spirits and some believe in Satan himself to perform sorcery. In the practice of black magic, rituals are performed on the individual (or victim) of choice which has many effects on that person.

Black magic traces back to mankind's primitive years where spirituality ruled (now religion has taken its place) and the work of black magic was used to invoke evil spirits and bring harm to victims. Unlike its counterpart white magic; black magic from its early uses has been known as "low magic". The practice of "low magic" was most used during the Renaissance era where rituals and magical practices came to mainstream society. Though it was not welcomed wholeheartedly, black magic attracted the types of followers who seek truth for their life situations. The terms witch, witchcraft, demons, evil, hexes, and curses became a part of society's daily language. Over the years, the use of black magic has become more common practice and has even been included in certain religious practices such as Wicca and of course witchcraft.

Black magic is an art (or practice) that is known all over the world, and for that reason, it goes by many titles (or names) such as magic spells, spells, hex, sorcery, Jadoo, jadu, sihr, witchcraft, voodoo, and curses. Over the years, black and white magic has become blurred when relating to certain aspects and functions of the practices. For example, in the European culture, Satanism is related to witchcraft and belongs to its own church and belief sector. While in African customs, the use of Voodoo is both a black magic and white magic practice (though modern society only contributes the practice of Voodoo to black magic). Though European practitioners like Aleister Crowley have emphasized their understanding of magic and witchcraft; the practice of Voodoo is a subject not familiar to most European practitioners of witchcraft or sorcery. True practitioners of Voodoo know that there is duality in the art and therefore can identify the differing aspects of the practice.

Because black magic has such a dark side, it is believed to be the closest to satanism or "Left-Hand Path" belief systems. These practices use malevolent powers and dark forces to get their agenda complete. Witchcraft, sorcery, and satanism are always in the conversation along with black magic. Witchcraft dates back to ancient Anglo-Saxon where wicca was used to bring about magical results or enchantments to others. The practice of witchcraft is supernatural and goes against modern Christianity. Witchcraft involves spells, curses, hexes, and invoking of evil spirits to get one's dark desires done.
