definition of magic

It is known as magic to practices, knowledge and arts, commonly accompanied by words, fantastic beings or particular acts, through which a suitable person or recognized by the rest of his peers as an expert in the matter, popularly known as a magician, produces opposite results to natural laws.

From its first manifestations, there in different iconic places where the movement of antiquity happened, such as Greece, Rome or Babylon, magic was closely linked with sorcery and with the non-sanctified practices that the sorcerers or magicians allegedly carried out using some type of concoction composed of foreign substances, animal or human, in some beliefs, in order to obtain some advantages for their own (achieve the motherhood of a woman) and disadvantages for alien (that the enemy loses a battle). Among the most recognized forms are: umbanda, shamanism, voodoo, animism, quimbanda, candomblé and wicca.

While, Nowadays and from the last decades, magic acquired an unexpected prominence and mainly what it achieved was to remove that nickname of rare practice, related to witchcraft and to which most people escaped because they considered that it causes negative consequences, which I recently commented to them, they always persecuted and became a mass attraction because it began to be produced and to think with a sense of spectacle, becoming one of the most watched and chosen entertainments, both to see in a live show and on television, besides, who did not ask mom once that a magician cheer up your little birthday party?

And without a doubt, this was largely due, not only to the effects and large-scale visual resources that this show proposes, but to the exclusive fascination that some of the hosts of these shows aroused, “the magicians”, becoming almost in celebrities in the best Madonna or Brad Pitt style. One of the most representative examples is that of the magician David Copperfield, one of the best payments for the incredible magic shows that he gives in cities like Las Vegas and these days Chris Angel, who seduces thousands of fans with his incredible bets x tevé .
