Magick is either positive or negative, depending on the intention of the Practitioner. Positive, white magick, brings beneficial things into your life. For example, making a talisman can bring you good luck. Negative, black magick, is used to harm people and cause negative events. Black witches use energies associated with the dark side. These negative energies aid dark, evil witches in their black magick, harmful works that are intended to bring bad luck and cause harm to the recipient.

Each of us enter The Craft do so of our own free-will and are given the choice: to go with the light or to go with the dark side. The choice is ultimately yours, but be warned, if you chose the dark side, it will eventually destroy you.

Choosing the dark side is similar to joining the mafia. Once you’re in, you’re a member for life. The initial appeal of the Dark Arts is the immediate sensation of power, but in the long-term, negativity eats at you much like it ate at Darth Vader in “Star Wars,” until he became so disfigured that he became a monster and no longer resembled a human being.

Those who subscribe to dark ways gave in to a dark polarity that at one time or another rears its ugly head in all of us. Those who adhere to positive magick represent the bright polarity, the polarity that balances the darkness and brings order to the chaos.

The light always overcomes the dark. The dawn always rises. If the darkness was more powerful and had the upper hand, then Adolph Hitler would have, without question, won World War II. But he didn’t. Those who practice the Dark Arts will find themselves on the losing end of things. A dark witch’s lack of success is due to negative energy’s preponderance to feed upon itself.

In the short run, practicing the Dark Arts will make you mean and vindictive because you have to build up a certain amount of negative energy to do black magick. This brings you some instant gratification, but in the long run you end up like Faust and darkness comes looking for your soul, at which point, you have no way out. When you turn to the darkness, you cannot turn back.
