White Magic is a psychedelic folk rock group formed in Brooklyn, New York City, and led by singer/guitarist/pianist/composer Mira Billotte.
 Billotte performs under this moniker both with accompaniment or solo, using a daf, shruti box, and singing a cappella.
 She is a modern trobairitz and, invoking both traditional and experimental folk, White Magic's sound ranges from loud psychedelia to meditative trance.
White magic has traditionally referred to the use of supernatural or powers or magic for selfless purposes.
 With respect to the philosophy of left-hand path and right-hand path, white magic is the benevolent counterpart of malicious black magic.
 Because of its ties to traditional pagan nature worship, white magic is often also referred to as "natural magic".

The Mystery Trend was an American garage rock band formed in San Francisco, California in 1964.
 The band was among the first wave of San Francisco rock groups to emerge from the city's growing music scene.
 Exhibiting music prowess leaning toward R&B, the Mystery Trend were set apart from their contemporaries who later developed into psychedelic rock groups.
 Their recording output was limited, with the group's one single, "Johnny Was a Good Boy", being released in 1967.
Black magic or dark magic has traditionally referred to the use of supernatural powers or magic for evil and selfish purposes.
 With respect to the left-hand path and right-hand path dichotomy, black magic is the malicious, left-hand counterpart of benevolent white magic.
 In modern times, some find that the definition of "black magic" has been convoluted by people who define magic or ritualistic practices that they disapprove of as "black magic".
White Witch was a glam rock/psychedelic/hard rock band from Tampa, Florida that made two albums for Capricorn Records in the early 1970s.
 Their name was a paean to "white magic", contrary to the "black magic" of groups like Black Sabbath.
 As the band announced before their shows: "To bring good where there once was evil, to bring love where there once was hate, to bring wisdom where there once was ignorance; this is the power of White Witch".
Practical Kabbalah (Hebrew: קבלה מעשית‎ "Kabbalah Ma'asit") in historical Judaism, is a branch of the Jewish mystical tradition that concerns the use of magic.
 It was considered permitted white magic by its practitioners, reserved for the elite, who could separate its spiritual source from Qliphoth realms of evil if performed under circumstances that were holy (Q-D-Š) and pure (טומאה וטהרה, "tvmh vthrh").
 The concern of overstepping Judaism's strong prohibitions of impure magic ensured it remained a minor tradition in Jewish history.
 Its teachings include the use of Divine and angelic names for amulets and incantations.
A Treatise on White Magic is a book by Alice Bailey.
 It is considered to be among the most important by students of her writings, as it is less abstract than most, and deals with many important subjects of her works in an introductory, even programmatic fashion.
 It was first published in 1934 with the subtitle 'The Way of the Disciple'.
 She promulgated White Magic as a discipline to serve humanity.
In Western esotericism the terms Left-Hand Path and Right-Hand Path refer to a dichotomy between two opposing approaches to magic.
 This terminology is used in various groups involved in the occult and ceremonial magic.
 In some definitions, the "Left-Hand Path" is equated with malicious black magic and the "Right-Hand Path" with benevolent white magic.
 Other occultists have criticised this definition, believing that the Left–Right dichotomy refers merely to different kinds of working and does not necessarily connote good or bad magical actions.
