I think that was meant to show how "black magic", as in magic or thoughts that "harm" another being, is bad for all involved, even the witch creating it. In fact, with Beatrice, you can almost see that it creates an insane addiction because the witch tries so hard to "fix" herself with something that just harms everybody in the end. I think at one point it was compared to a drug, and that's pretty accurate.

In contrast you have Maria's earlier "white magic", which is supposed to bring happiness and healing. You can see the obvious parallels with the love/hate theme, too .
