Pinkie Pie is evidence a pony doesn't need horns or wings to do magic. |

^Wings? The hay are you talking about? |

Twilight learns a lot about magic from books. I don't think you would need to be able to do any specific magic trick to learn magic theory, invent new spells, or do other magic related things. |

Both pegasi and earth ponies have innate magic, as opposed to the unicorns' directed horn-magic. In pegasi this manifests as the ability to walk on clouds. |

^and since numerous people have noticed that it should be physically impossible for pegasi to fly, that is also likely the result of pegasi innate magic. |

I think it's been theorized that Earth ponies have a magical connection to the earth, the same way pegasus ponies have a connection to the sky. Plants and animals thrive under Earth pony care in a way they can't under other ponies. That's why Sweet Apple Acres produces bumper crops of apples every season--only an Earth pony can do that sort of "magic". |
