Wand

Wand's are a way to project your energy to a certain place, thing, person or dimension.

Wand's made from wood should be taken from native trees in your area. You will need to research the magickal properties of these trees. We us native trees so that they will be in tune with the land forces around you. Energy patterns differ from place to place, and taking the wand from your local area with work in harmony with your surroundings.

If you remove your wand from a living tree, you should check to determine what the pruning season is for that particuliar tree. If you are unsure call a nursery. When cutting the wand be sure to explain to the tree why you are taking the branch, also ask for permission from the tree. The wand should be about 12 to 18 inches in length, mostly straight, and a comfortable weight to wield. Remember to sever the aura of the branch you take and leave and offering at the base of the tree.

Your wand can be either wood, or copper.You can add to it by adding a crystal, pine cone, feathers, and by wrapping it in leather, to name just a few things you can do.

Wands are good for communication and matters of business.

 The Wand
 
The wand is ideally suited for directing personal power. Its phallic, tubular shape allows intellectual psychic energy to be channeled toward a desire objective. By virtue of its shape alone, it is masculine in nature. During ritual, the wand becomes an extension of the individual using it. Personal power is forced with a laser-like intensity toward the desired goal. The wand is the tool of creation; through it the seeds of desire are allowed to manifest. In all of magick, myth, and legend, wands have always been able to make wishes come true.
 
In Witchcraft, the wand is associated with Air (intellect), and East (new beginnings). The wand is usually made from a young tree branch of willow, rowan, or oak. It measures in length from the tip of the middle finger to the inside of the elbow. The directional end of the wand is usually fitted with a crystal or small pine cone, or is carved into a phallic shape. Leather cord, silver or copper wire, and feathers can be added for decoration.
