Re: Starwood's Making Your First Wand by Susan Baxter Searles Fri Dec 25 15:02:19 1998 For me, a wand is a gift from a tree. I would never cut one from a tree unless I had very strong indications that the tree would allow such. I also wouldn't glue a crystal on a wand. If your going to attach anything, do it with cord, thongs, or some sort of metal work. A wand is a Druid's weapon and tool, in much the same way that a spear is a warrior's.*p*Searles*p**br*Taliesin_2 wrote,*br*: Starwood's Making Your First Wand*br*: Susan Baxter*br*:*br*: *br*: Some feel the tools of magick must be made by some powerful *br*: person with more knowledge than yourself.
