Introduction

Some people would say: what's the point to talk about magic? Magic doesn't exist, it was superstition, all this things are rubbish.
But I say that this topic is not that easy. Many people this days spend their money to ask fortune tellers about their future, and also all the reference through all the history that mentioned it... could it be a foundation of truth?
I know many people that read the horoscope as a source of absolute truth and live according to it, many would say the same thing about other people and religions, that's true.
There are many website, or television programs, that sell talismans for good luck, love and much more; so called healers that with their power will cure you from any sickness, cancer too, for the “right” amount of money.
When we see a “Magic Show”, with all type of crazy things happening, we all know that there is a trick, even if we can't figured it out in that moment, or never, we know that if the magician is walking on water or flouting in the air is not because he is Jesus or Superman, but probably it's a Hollywood like special effect.
You can find TV shows that explain most of the trick, as well as movies like “The Prestige”, “The Illusionist” and “Now you see me”.
But some how we still attract to the mystery, to know our future, to someone that tells us what will be and what is happening is not because of us, but it's because of the astral conjunction.
What about all that strange things that we can't explain? Ghosts, visions, angels, telepathy... magic?

I'm here as an investigator, searching for clues about what is real and what is fake. The purpose of this writing is not to convince anyone that magic is real, but to put a spotlight of what is not magic and to open our mind to the possibility that the reality is more than what we see, it's more complex and deep.
After my personal research I can finally write down some opinions and I want to share with you what I've found so that anyone can have an open vision on life.
Let me be your Virgilio in this journey into the magic.
