The fun really starts when we start playing with the connections and areas between the colors, and how a characteristic can have very different meanings depending on the context and goal of the character in the lore. Its characters, creatures, and other set pieces all gain meaning and design from these characteristics. In my section on colors above, I talked about how each color represents something different when it comes to the characteristics of the world that the set exists in. The first five on this list are considered allied color pairs and the last five are the enemy color pairs.

There are ten different color pairs in Magic. Let’s get into all the different color combos in MTG! Two-Color (Guild) Combinations Colorless is a bit of an outlier since it can technically go with anything, not counting Commander’s rules.īut that’s enough of that.

If you’re on a budget and want to try it out without spending a lot of money, Potter suggests trying placing flowers around your home to see how they change the mood. To experiment with color magick, you can place items of different colors around your home to help create different energies. "Color magick is using the color spectrum and the intention of each color to invoke its magical response," says witch and art advisor Sarah Potter. In fact, you’re probably already practicing more witchcraft than you think. It's something that's incorporated in the fabric of our lives, just by virtue of making many small choices throughout the day.

As a witch myself, what I find so appealing about color magick is that we use it every day, often without even noticing the ritual.
