As a haruspex hobbyist and heavenly horoscopist, I cast the entrails upon the altar for divination then do a little song and dance while I cook the eviscerated remains on the BBQ, all the while muttering the three magic words.

You must rub a magic lantern until four and twenty blackbirds have finished singing their set. If done correctly, a wish granting genie will appear. Be careful though, as most genies tend to misunderstand and you don't get quite what you expected.

There are lots of books on magic. The most simple form of magic practiced by occultists is candle magic.

Basically every form of magic is a type of wish.

I’d search amazon try “magic for beginners,” “candle magic” and you could try spelling magic magick.

Failing that do a google search for esoteric/new age bookshops there are plenty out there.

If you’re writing a story you need to consider what magical tradition you will be writing about.

Neo Paganism is very different from Voodoo which is very different from oriental magic. You don’t want to mix them up by say having a neopagan perform a Voodoo ritual.

Midas was Greek, he’d have had a kebab.

WB Yeats referenced 'golden-thighed Pythagaras' in one of his poems. Whether this had anything to do with King Midas, I cannot say.

@lmur,

Yeates was quite into magic, he wrote about it quite a bit, and druids feature in his poetry.
