the medieval theory of natural magic is quite fascinating
A quick web search on this mostly turns up nonsense. Would this be magical effects brought about by essentially natural means?
so basically yes - it's a classification going back to Jerome iirc which intersects with the division into natural, supernatural, preter-
but the interesting thing was that medieval orthodoxy was (a) witchcraft don't real
(b) anyone trying to accomplish mysterious effects by poorly-understood means was tacitly hoping for demonic aid
