How is black magic dangerous? On three levels . . .
The Direct Danger
Witchcraft is not a game. If you think you can hurt someone without harming yourself . . . you don't really understand Witchcraft. Or reality for that matter.
When you open to the elemental or spirit realm, and attempt to command those forces in a negative cause, you open yourself first to all harm that will be caused.
The destructive force comes through you. It fills and becomes you, before it can go anywhere else!
How could you not be harmed by that?
The General Danger
A more widespread danger is that by doing black magic you are letting loose into the world another stream of violent abuse.
The world cannot survive much more… are you sure you want to add to it?
If Gaia goes under, you and everything you care about will be ashes.
Is this really the kind of harm you have in mind?
The Long-Term, Ongoing Danger
And this is not even considering the impact on your soul, or the karmic debt you'd accumulate.
Or the fact that on a very real level you are the person you seek to harm.
You are not separate from anything. The people you want to hurt, or who just get in the way of you getting what you want - they are not "out there." They are part of you.
Even more so when you're working magick.
Zak youve known me for some time now.
Yes I study.
I share what I need to, keeping everyone safe is the first step in this coven.
I dont frown upon black magick, but if they try it and something goes wrong well they cant say they havent been warned.

The only thing that makes magic black or white, or gray, is the intent of the user who is trying to do a particular spell, or send out energy in way unbecoming of a witch. I've done some spells that have been pretty dark, or gray but nothing bad has happened.....the intent behind it all, made it white.....so you see, there is no color to magic.
