light magic
Wholesome supernatural practice
Light magic is magical practice associated with benevolent purposes—healing, protection, purification, or combating evil.
The term appears primarily in fantasy fiction and games, where it contrasts with dark magic or black magic.
Light magic typically draws power from holy or celestial sources: The paladin channeled light magic to heal his wounded allies.
The "light" suggests both moral goodness and literal luminosity, as spells often manifest as radiant energy.
