Space magic, also known as fl6, is a fascinating concept that combines the realms of space exploration and magic. It is a field that seeks to harness the power of magic to traverse and understand the vast expanse of outer space. In the world of science fiction and fantasy, space magic is often depicted as a supernatural force that allows individuals to manipulate the laws of physics and control elements to their will. This can include abilities such as telekinesis, teleportation, and even the ability to create and manipulate objects using pure magical energy. The idea of space magic opens up a whole new world of possibilities for storytelling and world-building. It allows authors and creators to imagine a universe where the boundaries of science and magic blur, and where characters can navigate the stars using otherworldly abilities.

One key aspect of space magic is its potential to transcend the limitations of traditional space travel. In many science fiction narratives, space travel is depicted as a slow and tedious process, limited by the laws of physics and the vast distances between celestial bodies.
The Story Behind The Song: Fleetwood Mac - 'Black Magic Woman
In 1969, some six years before the recruitment of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks, Fleetwood Mac found themselves at the peak of their early incarnation. In its first form, the band comprised frontman Peter Green, drummer Mick Fleetwood, bassist John McVie and guitarist Danny Kirwan following the disbandment of John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers.
During part two of Peter Jackson’s 2021 documentary The Beatles: Get Back, John Lennon asked his bandmates if they had seen Fleetwood Mac on Late Night Live the night before. “They’re so sweet, man,” he said. “And their lead singer’s [Peter Green] great. You know, looks great, and he sort of sings quiet as well. He’s not a shouter.”
Paul McCartney agreed, saying they sounded like Canned Heat. “Yeah, but better than Canned Heat,” Lennon asserted.
Besides the unbound endorsement heard in this exchange, Lennon notes the unique style that Green brought to Fleetwood Mac’s music. The late 1960s was littered with bands looking to burst some eardrums. John Bonham and Keith Moon had begun a heavy blues rock earthquake, forcing vocalists to scream and shout to outshine the fog. Meanwhile, Fleetwood Mac took a more laid-back approach, most apparent in their instrumental 1968 single, ‘Albatross’.
Earlier that same year, accompanying ‘Albatross’ on the 1969 compilation LP English Rose, Green gave one of his finest vocal and instrumental performances in ‘Black Magic Woman’. The single was eminently representative of Fleetwood Mac’s early soft blues-rock sound and a favourite of many fans, including Carlos Santana, who recorded his popular cover in 1970.
‘Black Magic Woman’ can be traced back to two earlier tracks involving Green and gained evident refinement from careful nurturing over time. Initially, Green was inspired by Otis Rush’s 1958 blues standard ‘All Your Love (I Miss Loving You)’. The track had been treated to an updated cover in 1966 by Green’s former band John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, with Eric Clapton, Green’s predecessor, on lead guitar.
“One of the things [John Mayall] said was that if you really like something, you should take the first lines and make up another song from them,” Green said in Peter Green: The Biography. “So that’s what I did with ‘Black Magic Woman’.”
Before the song became ‘Black Magic Woman’, however, Green first arrived at ‘I Loved Another Woman’, an earlier incarnation of the composition that appeared on Fleetwood Mac’s eponymous debut of ’68. Although the lyrics are somewhat different, the mellow minor blues composition with an accompanying Latin rhythm is much the same.
“My baby gone and left me/ Crying by myself/ My baby gone and left me/ Crying by myself/ I loved another woman/ I lost my best gal,” Green sings in the first iteration. These lyrics were changed for the dark, mystical tale of the ‘Black Magic Woman’: “Yes, I’ve got a black magic woman/ Got me so blind I can’t see/ But she’s a black magic woman/ And she’s tryin’ to make a devil out of me”. These more absorbing lyrics were said to be inspired by Green’s former girlfriend, Sandra Elsdon, whom he nicknamed “Magic Mamma”.
Fleetwood Mac’s single version of ‘Black Magic Woman’ became a major hit for the band at this early juncture, but Santana’s rework, as sung by Gregg Rolie and appearing on his album Abraxas became the most popular version. Abraxas was Santana’s second album, and although he had achieved notable fame since his debut with a memorable performance at Woodstock, ‘Black Magic Woman’ was a pivotal release reaching number four on the US Billboard Hot 100.

However, with space magic, these constraints can be overcome, allowing for faster-than-light travel and instant transportation between different locations in space. Space magic also offers a unique perspective on the nature of the universe. By incorporating magical elements into the exploration of space, it raises questions about the fundamental laws that govern the cosmos. It challenges the notion that everything in the universe can be explained purely through scientific principles, suggesting that there are mysteries and phenomena that can only be understood through magical means. It's worth noting that space magic is predominantly a fictional concept and has not been demonstrated in reality. However, it continues to captivate the imagination of many, inspiring countless works of literature, movies, and games. Its blend of science and magic provides a compelling narrative tool that allows storytellers to explore the depths of the cosmos while engaging readers and viewers in captivating adventures..
