Date Posted: 16/03/07 22:00 If I remember correctly, it should be freely given by the tree (windfallen) and collected on a wednesday. Its length should be from the finger tip to the elbow. Just pare of any excessive growths and empower. got some references but mostly got from mine from Rae Beth. Any problems, e mail me Blessings [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 19/03/07 17:43 Depends on your personal belief. If you are like me and more into celtic magick, then the type of wood works for different energies. If however you are someone who is concerned with planets, you'd find a planet day and collect a wand on that day etc There are alot of different ways, make one up, do what feels right to you!

Date Posted: 20/03/07 1:06 "There are alot of different ways, make one up, do what feels right to you!" Ditto that Ash! :) At the end of the day, it's just a tool - primarily used for directing energy, you might view it as an extension of your index finger. You don't need the wand to direct the energy, but if you want one then go for it! As for length - it's your tool, I believe the length should be one which is comfortable for you. I've used short and long ones, it all depends on the 'task' in hand :) As for material - willow, how lovely!! My first wand (and still my 'special one') was willow - but again, any material you feel suitable is good. I do prefer the naturally fallen wood approach, but if a tree was in need of a little pruning and I felt it was appropriate to use the trimmings I would. Following your instincts is (imo) the best approach. I'll stop waffling now, but I enjoyed the distraction :) [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 23/03/07 21:42 i gotta agree with the folks here, you need to do what feels right, with the respect that the tree and its dryad deserve ive a few different ones, again for different uses some just for meditating with. trees are great, what can i say im a tree hugger.

Date Posted: 26/03/07 16:29 you know it is funny you say that, i always call my self a tree hugger too.usually people just give a goofy chuckle and then i am compelled to tell them it is no joke and describe the feelings of comfort and rejuvenated energy i can derive from such a simple act. u know gaiangrub [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |
