Magical Wands
Made out of clay, metal, wood or bone, wands are used to shape and direct energy, acting as a powerful focus for creating magical space, or working to make your will manifest. Often bound with personal totems or carved with markings, it takes time to become truly attuned to your wand, though often people feel and are able to work with a certain energetic connection right away.
When choosing your wand, it is helpful to develop a basic knowledge of the magical properties of woods, so that you can select a wand that matches with your intentions. While many wands are selected for the empowering force the wood provides, others such as maple or rosewood are treasured for their gentler and more subtle touch as much as the energy they provide.
