LaVey was ultimately a materialist, and while he would occasionally entertain the idea of magic, in general (both in public and private) he generally denied any sort of "supernatural" and it has been claimed that the only reason he included any sort of magic in his Satanic Bible at all was as a gimmick, essentially giving Christians more to protest and as a selling point to occultists and other non-conformists.
