The act of rising or floating in the air without any visible support; defying gravity through magic or supernatural means.
From Latin 'levitas' (lightness) + the suffix '-ation' (action or state). The word emerged in the 1600s, often used to describe religious miracles or magical feats.
Magician David Copperfield made levitation famous with his floating illusion, but monks in meditation practices have reported levitation for centuries—scientists still debate if it's real or a misperception!
