Potions require a wizard's magic to guide them to complete, so what is the magic?

Only magic can create magic, and the basis of magic is magic, but no wizard knows what magic is? How did it come about?

For people in the wizarding world, they are already accustomed to magic or magic, just as ordinary people never think about how the air comes from.

That's why they despise Muggles, and even resist insulting Squibs.

Wizards have been practicing and using magic since they had it, but they haven't thought about how it came about.

Perhaps thinking about it, the pure-blood family has always believed that only by maintaining pure-blood can more powerful wizards be born and the magic can be continued.

They believe that it is the magic born of blood.

But this is obviously not true, wizards from the Muggle world have never been a minority, and this cannot be explained by the flow of wizards' blood from outside.

Combined with the influence of the will on spells and potions, we can make a bold guess: the magic comes from the spirit or the soul.

Magic, on the other hand, is a phenomenon in which the will interferes with reality.

Spiritually strong wizards have a stronger will, so they interfere more with reality, and conversely, mentally weak people cannot interfere with reality and cannot cast spells.

Therefore, the release of spells, including the preparation of potions, requires the guidance of the spiritual will.

And obviously, there is a boundary between the size of the spirit, those who can cast spells beyond the limit are wizards, and those who cannot cast spells below the limit are Muggles or Squibs.

In Zhang Jin's view, magic is like light, spirit is like a candle that can produce light, and the body is a lampshade that covers the outside of the candle.

Wizards use magic as if they were using light through a lampshade to influence the outside world.

Therefore, the spirit determines whether or not magic can be generated and magical.

Everyone has a soul and a spiritual will, so legend has it that ordinary people sacrifice or devour Muggles to enhance the power of magic.

It's just that the spiritual will of ordinary people is too weak to pass through the lampshade, so they can't use magic.

It's like the spirit and the body depicted in a web novel.

The body protects the spirit and seals it in, and only a person who is strong in spirit can make the spirit affect the outside of the body through the body, that is, form magic.

Magic can only be perceived when the spirit penetrates the body, just as magic can only be touched by magic.

Only those who possess magic themselves can experience magic.

The premise of all this is that the spirit transcends a boundary and is able to influence the outside world through the body.

Therefore, the most important thing for the improvement of magic power is that as the body grows, the soul and spirit mature.

That is, to increase the strength of the inner spirit, and the quality of the physical body is difficult to change.

As a result, the growth of magic is mainly concentrated in the mature period between the ages of eleven and eighteen, that is, when studying magic at Hogwarts.

Therefore, it is rare in the wizarding world that you can still increase your magic power as an adult.

Like Voldemort, he can only stimulate his soul by splitting to achieve the effect of increasing his magic power, just like dividing a wick into several, the brightness will naturally increase.

And the wand is supposed to be able to amplify this effect of the spirit, as if it opens a channel in the body, which can cause the spirit to pass through the channel and go straight to the outside world.

And it should also have the effect of amplifying the will, which can make the will stronger to the image of reality, and more in line with the will of the wizard.

It is assumed that wands are made from two ingredients: a wooden wand and a magical core.

The function of the wand body should be to open the passage of the body, and the core of the wand is to choose materials that fit the wizard's spiritual will to amplify the will.

Therefore, the wand chooses a wizard, not because the wand can think, but because the will fits.

That's why there are some spells that require such emotions or a strong will to cast, there will be Luna's kind of magic that can be used with magic just by imagination, and there will be some spells that may not be released when the mood changes.

At the same time, when the will is extremely strong, the power of magic will be greatly increased.

This also explains why black magic is banned in the wizarding world, which is definitely not like what some people say: there is no good or evil in power.

The release of dark magic often requires evil thoughts, just as the Requisition Curse requires a firm desire to kill the other person, and the Diamond Curse requires a twisted idea of torturing the other person.

Therefore, if you practice black magic for a long time, the soul will definitely fall into darkness.

On the other hand, it is impossible to use black magic well without the will of the dark soul, so what else can you learn to do!

This also explains why Dumbledore was reluctant to kill Voldemort with the Require Charm, and many people speculated that Dumbledore would have been able to kill him if he had used the Requir, but Dumbledore did not.

Perhaps it was because Dumbledore feared that he would fall into the darkness and become another Dark Lord, and his experience as a young man made Dumbledore more easily seduced by the darkness than others.

Believe me, Dumbledore's thoughts when he was young were the same as Gellert's. Grindelwald is pretty much the same, and everyone knows what the original Dark Lord thinks!

Returning to the discussion of magic, does bloodline have an effect on magic?

There must be, the flesh is a lampshade, and the higher the transparency of the lampshade, the better the light transmittance.

So ancient wizards were like lampshades with better materials, and they could even cast spells without wands, while modern wizards are getting thinner and thinner, just like the lampshades are getting more and more cloudy.

But the difficulty of bloodline improvement is very great, which is predestined when the wizard is born, and it is difficult to change it through the day after tomorrow.

Ancient wizards were supposed to be able to improve themselves by fusing the bloodlines of magical creatures, so the ancestors of many wizarding families had some bloodline.

For example, Slytherin has the blood of a feathered serpent, and the Dumbledore family is said to have the blood of a phoenix.

However, not to mention whether there is a way to fuse bloodlines, there are few bloodlines in the wizarding world that are better than wizards, and most of the existing magical creatures are also thin.

Therefore, pure-bloods try to preserve their blood through intermarriage, which is obviously not advisable.

Instead of making the shade more transparent and transparent, they are breaking the shade to create more cracks in the shade to let in more light and thus gain more powerful magic.

There are obviously great hidden dangers in this practice, the most obvious of which is that the protection of the soul is reduced, making it easier for the soul to be seduced and more likely to fall into darkness.

It also makes it easier to distort one's will, so many pure-blood wizards who practice dark magic become Death Eaters.

At the same time, we have to take a step further to guess that magical creatures can cast magic, or have magic, and wizards can use those magical materials to make potions.

That is to say, in the process of the spirit passing through the body, the body will more or less have spiritual residues, so that it has magical power.

Therefore, the spirit left by different magical creatures or plants is different, and there are also magic materials with different properties.

This is also confirmed in the choice of wands for wizards: wands made from the cores of different materials or different magical creatures are suitable for different wizards.

What's more, the whole wizarding world or the whole world may be a mixture of wills, and it may not have a separate will, such as Gaia or Alaya as people speculated.

But in the countless eras from ancient times to the present, I don't know how many powerful wizards have been born, and I don't know how many wizards have unleashed magic in this world.

These wizards and magical creatures are using their spiritual will to corrupt this world, both in life and after death, and they will have a spiritual will left in this world.

What a volitional body this must be!

So it's not surprising that even the will of the earth is formed.

Of course, this possibility is so small that it is almost impossible for an infinite number of different wills to combine to form a unified will.

In addition to strengthening one's own will, the spells released by the wizard should also play a role in communicating with the will of the outside world.

Make your own will borrow the will of the outside world to work together to form magic in the real world.

Therefore, there is no such thing as magic or anything, and there is only spirit and will from beginning to end.

There is no earth, water, fire, or any other elements or the like.

This world is just a world where the spirit has broken through the limitations of the body, and perhaps it has gradually become like this since the appearance of the first person who broke through the body.

And there was no such person in the original world!
