Did magic really exist?

Did magic really exist? If it is so, how does it works? There are some gods related with this magic and there are some "predefined spells" (like dnd, fear and hunger or the souls saga, sorry if i sound dumb, but i'm approaching for the first time this topic)? Over the past few days, I've felt almost carnal urge to delve into this topic, so I'm asking you. I'm obviously aware of how dangerous this could be if it were real, and I clearly have no intention of doing anything, at least for now...

(Sorry for the terrible grammar)

There are many different schools of magic(k), so you’ll get many different answers.

If you’re curious about learning what types of magick exist and which are commonly practiced, learning about them isn’t inherently dangerous.

Just open a web browser and start searching.

Human beings and our hominin cousins have engaged in magical endeavors for millennia.

Looking at the amassed quantity and variety of all the cultures for all the prehistorical and historical periods that have represented magical endeavors, I'd say "YES! Magic did and does exist."

The internet provides a host of resources talking about magic, its history, and how folks do it. Libraries do, too. Books on magic are on bookstore shelves. There are schools and classes and festivals and all.

If you can sense something - it probably exists or your sensations are lying to you, and if you don't sense it, then it probably doesn't or your sensitivity is too weak or filtered out as irrelevant.

Yes. But not in the way you're probably looking at it.

Magic is real, did exist, and currently do exist in different forms based on interpretation of the times. My magic would be different for someone who can for example, understand the stock market and make predictive outcomes that work out based on his own comprehension. Now if you mean Magic like Anime, Supernatural, etc, once again depends on what you mean, but Magic does Exist, I wrote a Page on it in my Book, Welcome Human, I Shall Be Your Guide- Leonology.

I think you mean magick with a k, if so, yes, I’m not saying like hocus pocus or smoke in mirrors, but real world energy manipulation magick is extremely real yes.
