How far does ethics and morals go when considering casting a spell/ritual on another person, with and without consent or knowledge of the working being done?

Hi all!

I ask this question due to a blog post I happen to come across when looking a bit deeper into black magic.

In the blog post, the writer talks about the use of "gentle love magic" and how she layered rituals and spells, along with her coven, to get a client's wife to be more *explorative* in the bedroom. It came off a little anti-Christian (as the wife came from a strict Catholic background and the husband was already on the left hand path, as per the article writer who practices "ethical" black magic as she calls it), but overall it made me think: Where does one draw the line in the sand?

I'm not writing to judge, but to try to understand. My brain can get a bit obsessive when I encounter something I don't understand or agree with initially, but I wanted to hear different perspectives on something like this.

Also, if this violates any of the rules or I used the wrong flair, I apologize. Just let me know where this conversation will be better suited and I will take the post down.

I just got done watching Angela's Symposium linked video.

It made me reflect on the many different systems and thoughts of how magic works, what really are spirits (if they exist at all), and what is necessary to get magical results.

I guess my question to you all is: how did you find a magical path/tradition/system that works for you?

How do you reconcile with the myriad of information that seems to conflict depending on the teacher?
