I love Theoretical Physics (i.e. Hawking's A Brief history of Time). When you study parapsychology a lot of theoretical physics is applied to paranormal hypotheses and sometimes it even works its way into crypozoology / paracryptozoology.
Through theoretical physics you can see that magick might just an expansion on what we know of physics. The law of conservation, which is applied to both physics and chemistry, and Newton's third law of motion also apply to most beliefs about how magick functions.
There's even a book that applies theoretical quantum physics to Wiccan style protection warding. "Magikal Self-defense: A quantum guide to warding."
"It doesn't stop being magic just because you know how it works." - The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett.
I know a lot of it is hypothetical and conjecture when applied to things like Occultism or parapsychology but when you get down to it, theoretical physics- especially with things like multiverse theory- makes you feel like literally anything is possible.
It's probably the most hopeful aspect of conventional fields of science.
