What do you mean exactly by magic? Any particular practice? With regard to the pic you posted, I don't think that there is anything supernatural about the Tree of Life or many occult practices. The occult and the mystery traditions were intimately linked with philosophy, science, and many of the greatest thinkers of all time from Plato to Newton. The tree of life is real in the sense that it can be derived by drawing simple circles via the flower of life in sacred geometry.

Likewise, Alchemy (the mystical/spiritual aspect) was/is also real, or as real as psychoanalysis or psychotherapy is today. It produced tangible effects. It's a form of magic in a way.
