A levitation illusion is one in which a magician appears to defy gravity by making an object or person float in the air. The subject may appear to levitate unassisted, or it may be performed with the aid of another object (such as a silver ball floating around a cloth) in which case it is termed a "suspension". Various methods are used to create such illusions. The levitation of a magician or assistant can be achieved by a concealed platform or hidden wires, or in smaller-scale illusions by standing on tiptoe in a way that conceals the foot which is touching the ground.

Se utilizan varios métodos para crear tales ilusiones. La levitación de un mago o asistente se puede lograr mediante una plataforma oculta o cables convenientemente disimulados, o en ilusiones de menor escala poniéndose de puntillas de una manera que oculta el pie que toca el suelo.
