Hmm, there’s lots of ways this could be done 🤔 if we were to take a more scientific approach, we could help explain magick through the electricity in our bodies being a conduit for such manifestations. Perhaps certain individuals are able to manipulate this energy differently, perhaps their bodies produce it abnormally.
There’s this GDV bio-well camera that is able to measure our body’s energy field, our “aura” - take phsycial pictures of it - and I always found the research of explaining such spiritual things in a scientific way to be fascinating
In one of the stories I wrote, my explanation for magick is similar to the first theory I mentioned with the exception of the human/beastman soul being the fuel from which this power is manipulated
Or even the anime Naruto. They explained how when the body’s energy and the spirit’s energy combine in the right way, it creates chi which is then formed through hand seals into something phsycial.
The possibilities for having reason behind this are endless. I mean, it doesn’t even need to be something we have in our universe, just as long as it makes sense, even in a wildly unlikely way, it just makes the story feel fuller 🙂
