Magic is the butterfly effect. It is a small intentional act upon the initial conditions that has an increasing potency to effect the desired change over longer periods at larger scales upon a chaotic system. Magic is done by manipulating energy at the quantum level. The uncertainty principle leads one to the conclusion that the very act of conscious observation alters a particle(s). The theory purposed by Peter Carrol that particles travel both forward and backward in time may account for much of magical theory such as past lives and divination, even enchantment and spell work. By altering with your conscious intention a particle\particle field you can glean information from past and future, and as is evidenced by successful magic even alter said future through a small act of magic in the present.
Cool 'theory': make results, then tell me about it. Otherwise, what's the point?
