For them the mystery of magic is a sign of the possibility of power which they have not controlled in other ways, and they see magic as a possible fix to be used where other fixes have not brought satisfaction. The uses of magic are paradoxical in that some of the fascination with magic comes from the way in which it affirms the mysterious aspects of life over which we cannot have control; yet, in attempting to use magic to gain control there is a denial of the value of that which is essentially mysterious and which gives meaning to life. That which is essentially mysterious cannot be the essence of a technology to exercise control. If we are not clear about the difference between magic and mystery we may be tragically mislead.
