How to Choose a Magick Wand

The wand is the quintessential magickal tool. Take the time to make a wise selection. Though it has no inherent power, you must choose your magick wand carefully. A dynamic energy conductor, the wand deepens the connection with your vital personal power.

Instructions

1. Know your intention. Choose silver or pewter for high magick. Wood is better suited for earth magick and crystal is good for faerie magick.

2. Remember different wood has different properties. Know what you're buying. Oak is for power and endurance. Hazel confers wisdom and intelligence. Yew carries destructive energies.

3. Magickal traditions and covens usual require their members to use specific tools. If you are part of a group or plan to join one, make sure you adhere to their requirements.

4. Take into account your magick wand needs to reflect who you are and whatever properties you're working with. Take time to make the appropriate selection.

5. Hold the wand in your hands for a few quiet minutes. Ground yourself and
   feel its vibration. Set it aside and repeat the process with several more wands before making your purchase.

6. Consecrate your wand by passing it through the smoke of incense. Chant words expressing your connection to your magick wand and your personal power.
