Etymology

Magick comes from the same old root as magi, meaning 'wise men' or priests, and is in the same family as the common word magic, which links it to special powers. A famous writer, Aleister Crowley, added the final k to separate real spiritual ritual from stage 'magic', so magick today usually means a spiritual practice meant to bring change.
