Description
The wand is the most important component of the witch's toolbox. Serving as an ultimate big book of wands, here is: * The clearest exposition of the names, spirits and attributes of woods for wands * The clearest explanation of wand anatomy * The most complete explanation of how to access, shape and channel magical forces from wands * A fresh and useful approach to wands for specific magical practices * A useful guide for a witch can form a partnership with her wand Based on her deep knowledge of plant science and ethnobotany and years of magical practice, the author examines the uses and benefits of each wand component (primarily woods, shrubs, grasses vines and some metals). She, also, explores their associations to various gods and goddesses, relationships to specific types of magic and the results a practitioner, can expect to achieve. She, also, includes tips and resources for finding materials, handcrafting and correspondence charts for easy reference. The final section focuses on the wands used in the Harry Potter series. This is the ultimate guide for witches and pagans everywhere
