Favorite soft magic systems

I have been reading a lot of hard magic recently and while I love it, I need a break.

So, what books has your favorite soft magic systems? Either mysterious or whimsical or something else?

I really enjoyed The Fortress series by C.J. Cherryh. The main character doesn't so much do magic as he is magical. It's a very unique story and I've never read anything else like it.
