Magick spelled with a “k” differentiates from magic tricks performed for entertainment. It also represents the realm of possibilities, expected serendipity and connection to all living things. The spelling is symbolic and carries deep meaning, pointing directly to the illimitable intersection of where heaven meets the earth. The “g” points to the ground or form, similar to the vortex triangle that points to the earth and is generally yin, female or resting energy. The “k” reaches for the sky, where ideas are born, similar to the apex triangle which is typically considered yang, male or active energy, and represents the male energy.

The overlapping vortex and apex triangles create a symbol, often known as the Star of David. The intersection of form and thought is where magick happens. The connection represents material and spiritual coming together to develop the soul. The soul’s work on earth is not complete if it dwells too long in the spiritual realm or mundane reality. It must use the union of the male and female, light and dark, spiritual and material, heaven and earth to create magick. On earth, we live in that powerful meeting place where form is created from desire and need.
