Do all Wiccans practice magic/k?

That depends on what one means by magic. The occultist Aleister Crowley helped re-popularize archaic spellings such as “magick”, terming this “the Science and Art of causing Change to occur in conformity with Will.” Others may think of magic as folk parapsychology or see the changes wrought as primarily changes in consciousness. Ceremonialists may distinguish between the “high magick” of ritual observance and the “low magic” of practical spells (such as for protection and health). Almost all Wiccans, however, have some sort of ceremony or psychological practice to better attune themselves with divinity, encouraging insight and a sense of efficacy. Others may cast love spells or other curses but no, we don’t do it for strangers on the net and no, we don’t confuse this with stage magic. One of the many definitions of Magic/Magick/Majik is: The use of forces within yourself and Nature (around you) to bring about Willed Change.
