Define Gray Magic?

Is Gray Magic a real thing, if so what is Gray Magic, exactly?

As far as I am aware when practitioners are speaking of gray magick they are more than likely referring to practitioners whom delve into both positive intentions within their magick and hex work or other intentions which can seem to be more negative in nature.

Many folk magicks utilize intentions of both categories of positive or negative.

Chaos magick is another form that allows for a myriad of intentions.

Essentially as I am aware gray magick is not exactly a form of magick itself but a term to indicate the possible range of intentions of certain practices.

Okay thanks

Grey magic is any magic that is neither white magic nor black magic. White magic is magic that heals. Black magic is magic that harms. Grey magic is everything else. Or at least, that is ONE definition. Magic color definitions vary, so grey magic could also be defined as something that is more specific.

Look at Zoroastrianism in Iran, where they keep like perpetually burning Fires and things. If you look at the Mace, which is like a Club or a Wand, there is significance that comes from that Path which is a Grey Path, so then the Angels are Angels, the Demons are Demonic Angels, and the Grey Path is God. And this was preserved through Mithraism and Maces through Zoroastrianism.

My experience has been that "gray" practitioners want to do black magic but are sorely conflicted over the issue, so they settle for shadow over dark. Admittedly I'm generalizing from a small data set.
