    Question In need of a wand

    I'm looking to collect the materials I will need to begin my journey into spellcasting, I already have a nice athame, but I am in need of a wand. Any advice on what type of material It should be made of? Someone mentioned that a rod from a Rowan tree would be excellent.

    What do you have/use?

    In practicle use, I use a pen and dedicate it to the element of Air.
    Wands are only used to direct energy and pens direct thoughts onto paper.

    I use an iron wand when working with martial currents, and a good friend of mine swears by holly.

    Well, I don't use a wand, this may sound dumb, but I do have a wand. It has a crystal at the end of it. If you want a image of it, just say. And I also use my index finger for casting and things.

    I have a wand made of Willow. The Willow tree IS sacred to the Goddess.

    A wand can be very personal, you should research some more and have fun picking out ones that have meaning for you. My advice is to use a hard wood and not wood from a sap bearing tree. And who says you can't have more than one? I have three that are special to me. My most prized is made from a branch of a tree at mt. St. Helens. It has two natural twists in it and has patches of black/burnt outer bark mixed with smooth white bark where it was stripped during the eruption. The second is from the root of a giant tree my family loved. We would visit it every other year and take pics of everyone holding hands and trying to wrap around it completely. We went back four years ago only to find that it had toppled over the roots were massive but shallow, they had great shapes too so I hunted for an interesting piece. we took one last pick with everyone sitting on top and we never went back.
