Before I say anything i just want to say that I totally agree with @r-m-archer ‘s response.

I actually struggled with this for a while because I was afraid any magic would feel supernatural. Especially since my Wip’s genre is Historical Urban Fantasy; at least I think it would be, it’s complicated.

Like @sarah-inkdragon mentioned I have “ordained” magic, which just for now I call Emeomo. To help it not seem supernatural I gave it boat load of limitations and gave it a natural scientific explanation.

Basically, my “magic system” involves people (and some animals) interacting with an element produced by certain plants and using it to fuel their power. However, only certain people are born with the ability to see/detect that element, and not every user can do the same things with it or to the same degree. Wow, I explained that poorly, I’ll need to work on that. But I seriously did a ton of research and there’s only one part left to fully explain. But of course my readers aren’t going to know all the in’s and out’s, but it helps me to set the rules.
