Yes colour corresponsences are used in magick but magick itself does not have colour. Just as Lark said on another post, it is another form or energy, like electricity and that doesn't come in two different colours.

Electricity comes in a number of colors first of all...its not just one color..


And sure magick may not have a "color", for it is exactly what it is. Energy.

But there something called "intent", what one would intend to belevolent, or malevolent.

What I think Lark meant when she said it (and this is only a guess), is that when you use electricity you don't question whether it is black or white. But if you use it to kill someone then it is bad but if you use it in defibriliators is can be considered good, the colour does not matter during its use, its the intent of its use.

it depends on how you interpret it you see intention can be describe using colors. we normally associate black as evil or bad and we normally associate white as good and if you say black or white it doesnt literally mean the color you see using your physical eyes

First: Magick is magick.
Second: Learn and study What it is.
Third : Practice what you've learned; grounding, centering, meditation, etc.
In the forums there is section called General Info. Then find and read, study, learn Basics Expanded and Starting Out. These are full of great info for the beginner. Good luck!

Electricity does not come in colors. However, when it is used to stimlate certain gasses it can cause them to glow with different colors. Perhaps that is what you're referring to.

Well, if you're serious about learning how to do magic and with starting from the rock-bottom then you don't start out by casting spells, you start out by learning how and why magic works.

You see, there is no such thing as an "easy" spell or a "beginner" spell. One either understands how magic works and has mastered the basics...in which case the magic will work..or you haven't done that sort of work..and no spell will work no matter how "easy" it seems.

Casting a successful spell involves much more than finding some spell on the internet or in a book, saying some words, lighting a candle, waving a wand of any of that sort of thing. In order for magic to work you need to understand how and why it works in the first place. Grounding and centering, visualization, focus and intent, energy manipulation, etc are all necessary first steps to even begin to have a chance at a spell actually working...and more importantly to prevent a spell from back-firing on you.

So, my advice for anyone who is truly serious is to start by reading a few books and practicing the exercises those books will give you. Once you have mastered the basics you won't need anyone to give you spells, you'll be able to create your own spells that will be far more effective than anything you find on the net. Here's the books I suggest:

"Before You Cast a Spell" by Carl McColman

"Spells and How They Work" by Janet and Stewart Farrar

"The Veil's Edge" by Willow Polson

"Modern Magick" by Donald Michael Kraig

Have a look at what suits your fancy and what you morally agree with and start from there
