Ficino's Theory of Love

Ficino offers a well-considered theory to explain magical phenomena. If magic is simply the manipulation of such natural powers, then there's nothing wrong with it any more than it would be wrong to use a magnet. The whole cosmos does have a unifying love or sympathy, but there's a particular bond between things that have relevant similarity. These resonances explain why astral magic can summon demons or induce them to influence our world.
