Anything and everything you ever wanted to know about magic.

Magic is an everyday aspect of our lives, and most of us accept it without trying to understand just exactly what magic is. I will try to explain all of magic, from its most fundamental particles to the various branches of practiced modern magic. Notable historical events will be included, as well as magical biology and physiology.

Author's Note- A bit of a mental exercise. Feel free to leave questions about magic, magical creatures, magical development…anything over magic, really, and Dr. Stargazer may just get back to you.

An Introduction to Magic

Magic is a vital part of everyday life in Equestria, affecting nearly everything a modern pony interacts with. For our species as a whole, typically, unicorns levitate objects and cast spells without batting an eye, pegasi control the weather schedule, and earth ponies aid crop growth. Each of these activities is spurred on by magic- some more apparent than others-, but the processes involved in performing these actions is so ingrained in our brains and biology that they come to us through instinct.
