Most instances of magic have some aspect that impacts on the natural and much has nothing in it that is not natural (a god that dies permanently even if he does not do so until Ragnorak is effectively a big human). It is far from necessary for a mythos to have anything outside of nature, much less having magic be uniquely supernatural.
In a pantheist universe, everything is natural. Period. In an animist universe it is not necessarily clear whether or not there is anything supernatural, but fairies and totems are in fact no more supernatural than humans.
