For the light-based meaning of magic, the conventional image is symbolically instructive. The customary image has the magician perform two major feats: disappearance and levitation. Truly, the magic of the soul defies earthly gravity and uplifts life, and this same force illuminates to such a degree that the personality ceases to exist in its former mode—a true disappearance.
