Questions About Magick What is magick? Magick is the science and art of using the subconscious mind to effect change in the material world. In more specific terms, magick is using conscious stimulation (i.e., rituals, symbols, gestures, chanting, lighting, incense, sex, etc.) to harness latent powers within the subconscious mind (i.e., gods, genii, intelligences, angels, daemons, etc.) to make changes in our bodies, our minds, and the world around us.
