The Magic Wand of Your Intentions

The Wand chooses the Wizard once the Wizard is clear about what they want

It has been chronicled by author and Wizard authority JK Rowling through her character Mr. Ollivander that ‘the Wand chooses the Wizard.’ As an aspiring student of Wizardry, there is one thing you need to understand about the magical art of Wandcasting before this choosing can begin.

Your Wand is a tool, just like any other tool. Think of it as a magic hammer or screwdriver. It is designed to get a job done.

The job is the interesting part.

With a hammer, the job is pounding things together or pulling them apart. You use your hammer in physical action to make a desired change to physical reality.

With a Wand, you are accomplishing a similar, but much more magical change. You are directing and activating INVISIBLE energy to change visible reality.

It works like this:

• You have an abundance of invisible energy that is contained in your forcefield, your thoughts, and your emotions.
• You use your Wand to direct these invisible energies into an Intention.
• You decide what that Intention is. It could be to protect and defend. It could be to attract something like love or money. It could be to move something that is stuck, like homework or an art project.

Your invisible energy exists in the Invisible World and your Wand helps it to cross over into the Visible World to affect physical reality. You gather your invisible energies into your heart and then direct them out through your arm, into your hand, and out through your pointed Wand.

There are certain Wand practices that help to move it along. These include:

• Wand grip
• Wand motion
• Voice activation

All of these you will learn in your Wandcasting class with the Wand Witch. Obviously, it begins with having your own Wand. Whereas you can borrow an ordinary tool like a hammer, a Wand is much more personal, and you’ll want it to become your own. It is going to be filled up with your invisible energy, becoming more infused with magic over time.

So get your own Wand pronto.

You want your Wand to feel like an extension of your hand; this starts with the grip. If the wood or resin of your Wand doesn’t quite fit, consider wrapping it with ribbons, fabric or wool. Other embellishments include carved symbols, charms, power objects like feathers or stones.

This is an advanced practice, usually used after you have grown comfortable with your Wand as a tool and you know what embellishments will enhance your Wand Work and which will distract from it.

Because your Wand is actually a very simple tool of magic, as simple as a hammer. It directs your invisible energies into making your desired change in physical reality.

It just takes practice, which is what Wandcasting class with the Wand Witch is all about. Grow comfortable with your grip. Practice directing your energy with your motions. And use the power of your voice to state your intentions out loud. Eventually, you won’t need any of that, you will just be able to focus your intentions and all your energy will coalesce into your desired change.

Attend Wandcasting class with the Wand Witch at Wizardopolis School of Wizardry. Use your Wand to Write the World.

YOUR WIZARDING ASSIGNMENT

Go for a Wizard Walk to seek out your Wand. (If you already have your Wand, you can take your Wand on your Wizard Walk to practice Wandcasting.)

To find your Wand, be on the lookout for any interesting felled branches. Test it in your hand before inviting it into magical collaboration with you.

Over the coming days work with your Wand to help it to become a magical tool in your Wizard Supplies.

You can also use the Wizard Crossroad Chicken to activate today’s magic. Or the Campfire Chicken to come to magical completion with the day-that-has-been.
