Why Use Wands?

Wands allow the user to feel connected to their surroundings and the Universe as a whole. It's the feel of it clutched between your fingers, the look of it, pointing up into the Heavens. It's a focal point for one's thoughts and intentions. Each material that it is made of has its own properties and folklore, passed down to us from milleniums gone by.

If you believe in the wand and your abilities to conjure, then you can. An incantation or spell is a prayer of sorts. We try with intent to create change. Usually drawing the power of the energy itself that is all around us in whatever form our own, intimate pantheon dictates. Some call the Source, some the Goddess, some Lord / Lady, some draw down the Moon Herself.

The Source is powerful. Wielding its power heedlessly is not wise.
