Merry meet! This is of course my ' way to make a wand. I hope you like it!

To make a wand:

First find a stick. It is best to find one that measures from your middle finger to your elbow. It can be made of many types of wood. Oak works really well, but Willow, Ash, Birch, etc. all work well too. It can be straight or crooked, your choice. Take the branch and clean it, take the bark off, sand it, glaze if you wish, etc. Don't paint anything on it now. After you have cleaned it, wrap it in fresh, newly cleaned, silk, cotton, or satin. When you wrap it, put oils and herbs in it, and wrap like a tootsie roll. Chant this over it:

" May the light of the moon bless this wand. "

about 10 to 20 times. Bring it out on the full moon ( after the herbs, oils and barks have set on the wand for 7 days ) and bury it by the type of tree the wood of your wand is from. Go back to your house. Take a shower or bath with warm water. Turn of the lights, and light a few votives or candles. While taking bath chant:

" May I be blessed, just as my wand in the light of the moon. "

When you get out, rub in some oils on your body. If you are doing a rite that night, make sure you take this bath or shower first, right after you have planted your wand. Then do your rite. If you have no spell, ritual, rite, etc, that is MUCH better. Because then you go to sleep right after your blessing of yourself and your wand. Better yet if you do have a rite, put it off. The full moon shines upon us for a few days you know.

After you rub in some oils, go to bed. Light one of those big candles that stay on all day and night, if you have one. Get a good night's sleep.

When you arise the next day, take a bowl of fresh water, and let it sit in the morning sun till noon. At noon, take the water and pour around the tree and your wand. Not ON the wand or tree. AROUND the wand and tree. This gives the wand water, AND energy from the sun. It will, of course, get the sun in the air. But this gives the water more energy as well.

When the sun sets and the moon rises, full once again, go out and get your wand. Bring it inside. Cast a circle as usual.

On the alter unwrap your wand. It now has energy from the oils, herbs, water, and sun to help you do this small rite.

Hold the wand in your hands...... and share your energies with it. Lay down with your wand in your hand and meditate. Now you may think this is silly, but name the wand. It IS now a part of you, your magick, and your rites. After doing this get up and say this:

I HAVE BLESSED THIS WAND IN MY POWERS, YOUR POWERS, AND ITS POWERS! I NAME THIS WAND _________ AND MAY IT LIVE HAPPY WITH ME! AS I WILL LIVE HAPPY WITH IT! SO MOTE IT BE!

After this, fold and lay the cloth it was wrapped in and set it on the ground. Put the wand on it. Close the circle as usual.

Take the cloth and place it somewhere where your other magickal tools are. Place the wand on the cloth. Go to sleep and get a good night's rest. But this was a RITE. So don't do anything else tonight but this rite.

After you get up, sprinkle some salted water on the wand. And go about your life. :)

I hope you like that! These were made by me, and if you would like me to make one specifically for you please tell me!
Merry part and blessed be!
