How to Choose


How to Choose your Magic Wand


First, remember that the wand itself is not the source of the power.  You, the user, are the source of power, the source of “magic.” The wand is simply a tool to focus your thoughts and intentions, allowing you to use and master the natural laws of manifestation.  When using a wand, your desires and mental images merge with your emotions and beliefs, and “Poof!” your life or circumstances can change. 

 How do you select the right one for your purpose? 

 Your wand will become a very personal tool, and there are some qualities it simply must have. The beauty of it needs to speak to your heart because this opens your channel to the power of universal love. You should feel solidly grounded when you hold it, and it should inspire you a full sense of your personal power. 

 When choosing a wand online, note which wands you like the best, close your eyes, and assess the physical and emotional responses you have to each one. Besides your own response to the wand, there are subtle energies intrinsic to the wand that will help you accomplish your task.  The materials and elements that make up the wand, such as crystals, gemstones, craftsmanship, colors, and symbols, all carry subtle vibrations of their own and these enhance the energy field surrounding you and your wand. See if you can pick up a sense of these qualities from the wand pictures and descriptions.  

 Select a wand that resonates with qualities you want to empower in yourself.  The wand can be big enough to sit on your altar, or small enough to wear around your neck; the size is totally your preference. Many wands are designed to empower certain intentions and you may choose one that suits you, or you can “charge” a wand that attracts you with any intention you choose. The power of the wand comes from your beliefs and emotion about it, which gives you a lot of freedom regarding the actual wand you select.

 When you find the right one, it will be a lot like recognizing an old friend, and you should have no doubts.  Once you have your wand, you can personalize it by placing it in a special place, or “charging” it with prayer or other energies that focus the purpose. These actions raise the vibration of the wand itself, and the longer you use your wand, the more palpable these vibrations become.

 To choose for a specific purpose, consider these styles:

Healing: 

Choose one to channel universal energies, with a clear or transparent colored staff.  Green is the healing color, and purple or white will connect you to spirit.  Useful stones are aventurine, clear quartz, and amethyst.  Consider the Balancer, the Optymystic, Heart Healer, or Vibrations.

 Love:  

Choose a wand with pink color and/or rose quartz stones. The Pure Love/Diana Theresa wand was designed for unconditional, divine love, and the Heart Healer or Love Teacher both bring in healing energy to work exceptionally well as personal tools.  

Using Intuition:  

Choose blues for the 5th and 6th chakras.  The Voice wand empowers speaking inner messages, Visionary and the Vision and Balance series help you attract the messages. 

Guidance/ Angels:

Useful stones are clear quartz for clarity, rose quartz for love, and amethyst for spirit connection. Use Angel Wing or Connection for groups and powerful intentions; use Angel Heart or Angel Sphere as personal tools.

Integration/ Wholeness:   

Pick a wand that supports a personal goal, such as the Voice (for speaking truth), the Goddess (claiming feminine power), FireKeeper (claiming masculine power), Acceptance, Forgiveness, Transcender, or Transition.  Pick a wand that encompasses wholeness, such as the Balancer, Vibrations, or Connection.

Relationships:   

Choose black to represent your Self, standing your ground, and pink for love, red for passion, clear quartz for clarity and understanding.  Try the Intimacy and the Lover, or Harmony. The Passion wand will inspire vitality in a relationship.

How to Use a Magic Wand

For Self-Empowerment: 

Perhaps the simplest way is to keep the wand with you as much as possible, using it as a reminder of your intention.  Wear it, place it where you will see it often, and allow the subtle energies surrounding it to permeate your awareness and aura.

 If you want to drive the intention deeper into your psyche or your body, you can use the wand during meditation and/or have it present during ritual or ceremony.  Hold a vision of your intention in your mind, and touch the wand in whatever place seems appropriate to you.  Touch crystals or beads, or fill your awareness with a color from the wand.  Fill your inner self with awareness of the wand as you meditate, and enhance the purpose of your meditation or ritual. Afterwards, allow yourself to be reminded of the intention whenever you see the wand.

For Healing:

 Select a wand that resonates with overall healing energies that speak to you, such as chakra balancing, or the energies of high beings or spirit guides. Choose a wand that you sense will assist you in visualizing “wholeness” and in easing “dis-ease”. Smaller wands work well as personal tools and for very specific, targeted healing purpose.  If you work with other individuals or groups, the energies will be easier to access if your wand is larger. Become aware of the healing properties associated with certain stones, colors, and symbols, and choose a wand with these elements.

 Before you use the wand for an intention, you should “charge” it with prayer or ceremony (even a small one). You may also “charge” a wand for another person, such as a friend or client, and give them a tool that already is programmed with intention.

 Since you can merge your own intent with any wand by charging it, any wand will work for any purpose.  However, there are some qualities that intrinsically merge with your purpose, and choosing a wand that has these qualities in the first place can empower your own “magic."
