The belief by pirates in the 1500's and 1600's that black magpies native to the Caribbean would detect and seek out the fermenting alcohol of naturally occurring molasses from sugar cane plants which produced natural rum. During specific times of the year, P. hudsonia would roost in the Caribbean during migration. The migration traverse would lead the birds to search high energy food. Of particular interest to pirates was rum. The pirates would watch the seasonal migration patterns of the birds as well as roosting locations in hopes of finding free alcoholic booty to trade on the high seas as well as use for personal inebriation. The alcohol was easily captured and stored for ocean voyages.

Get the Black Magpie Theory mug.A term used to describe magic used for bad intentions. The magic itself is not black/evil/bad or white/holy/good. Magic is as evil or saintly as gravity. The intent of the person casting the magic is what makes it good or bad, or somewhere within a gray area.

Get the Black Magic mug.Is the practice of magic used for your own fate, free-wil, even for the things that you know is evil such as: killing your own loved one, just because you want to just do it, because this kind of magic already did influenced yourself; you just can't resist, and starts to feel so important to you going to the point of your own truly obsession forever until you can. You are manipulated by it, & there is no way to stop, until you, yourself decided to stop it for good. It's like a an illegal drug, but spiritually & more intentionally. This kind of magic is very dangerous, because you could hurt yourself, for it tends to backfire, but only when you aren't that good to it, so better be careful and intelligent when using it.
