Magick with a K

In the beginning of the knowledge behind magick, it is important to understand the world itself. Magick as it is defined is something producing remarkable results, especially when not fully understood. It the use of rituals or actions, especially based on supernatural or occult knowledge,to manipulate or obtain information about the world. Magick is most commonly spelled with a letter k in it. The main reason for an additional letter is to distinguish stage magic or performance magic from the Occult one and and it has been used in
Grimoires since  the 17th century. 

Magick with the additional k in more understandable way of explaining is defined as  
"the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will" 
in the context of Aleister Crowley's Thelema. He understood magick as an important and essential method
for a human being to reach and fully understand self. 

 “One must find out for oneself, and make sure beyond doubt, who one is, what one is, why one is...
Being thus conscious of the proper course to pursue, the next thing is to understand the conditions necessary to following it out. After that,one must eliminate from oneself every element alien or hostile to success, and develop those parts of oneself which are specially needed to control the aforesaid conditions"
-    Aleister Crowley, Magick, Book 4 p.1
The term is a Modern English spelling used in works such as translation of Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa's De Occulta Philosophia (1651.)

My last jar spell worked so well! For some while I thought it won't because it seemed my spells stopped working. However,that was not the case. Lucky me.  So right now as I write this post I will try to mix up a good jar spell. But before I am going to write something about jar spells. Jar spells are an old form of folk magic.

Bottles and containers are used in hoodo
