Magetraditionaries

Magetraditionaries, also known as traditional magicians or ceremonial magicians, are individuals who practice and study traditional forms of magic, often rooted in historical, cultural, or religious contexts. This term is used to distinguish them from modern magicians or illusionists who perform stage magic for entertainment purposes.

The practices of magetraditionaries are diverse and can include rituals, spells, divination, and the invocation of spiritual entities. These practices are often based on ancient texts, grimoires, and oral traditions passed down through generations. Some well-known systems of magic that magetraditionaries might study include Hermeticism, Ceremonial Magic, Wicca, and various forms of folk magic.

Magetraditionaries often place a strong emphasis on the spiritual and mystical aspects of their practices. They may seek personal transformation, enlightenment, or a deeper connection with the divine. Their rituals and ceremonies are typically structured and may involve the use of specific tools, symbols, and invocations.

The study and practice of traditional magic often require a significant commitment of time and effort. Magetraditionaries may spend years studying ancient texts, learning complex rituals, and refining their skills. They may also form groups or covens to practice together and share knowledge.

While the term "magetraditionaries" is not widely used, it serves to highlight the distinction between those who practice magic as a spiritual or mystical pursuit and those who perform magic for entertainment. The practices and beliefs of magetraditionaries can vary widely, reflecting the diverse cultural and historical roots of traditional magic.
