Magick With A "K"

Have you ever wondered why we spell magick with a "k"? Let’s chat about how this spelling came about, and how we practice magick through both mystical studies and ritual dance at the studio!

Check out this video to dive deeper into this rich topic!

 
 

And here is a checklist of what we discuss in this video:

  • "Magick" is an old English term dating back to the 1600s, popularized in the late 20th century by the controversial British occultist, Aleister Crowley

  • "Magic with a c" can be used to describe sleight-of-hand illusion and entertainment (like card tricks and pulling a rabbit from a hat)

  • "Magic with a c" can be used to describe the supernatural, or something just wonderfully cool and exciting (like a magical unicorn)

  • "Magick with a k" intends to convey the art and science of causing change to occur in conformity with the Will… it’s mystical, spiritual, and intentional

  • Crowley was strongly influenced by Qabalah and Gematria, ancient mystical systems that highlight the emphasis of numerical value and grammar

  • "K" is the 11th number of the alphabet, 11 represents divine connection and the power to manifest abundance

  • Adding "K" changed the spelling of magic from 5 to 6 letters, 6 related to the hexagram and representing the unconditional love of nature (also associated with Venus)

  • Here at Minx + Muse, magick is realized through mystical studies, as well as ritual dance

  • Our “esoerotic” dance classes are crafted as magickal rituals where we awaken our innate feminine magick through embodiment and reclaiming our sexual sovereignty… this is essential to living fully in one’s power as a witch

  • The feminine is our creative, receptive, intuitive, and spiritually-connected energy

  • So Mote It Damn Be!

There truly is more than meets the eye when it comes to living fully in one’s power as a Magician. At Minx + Muse, we gain mystical wisdom by exploring topics such as spell casting, astrology, divination, intuitive development, and witchcraft. That being said, we also practice sensual, esoerotic dance as a portal of enchantment thru which we uncover and harness our innate feminine power. We believe that is this combination that allows us to live fully in our magick, and we invite you to explore these soulful practices with our coven!
