These popular little witchcraft tools are used in candle magick or blood magick. They are 5.5 inches to 6 inches long. They have a needle-sharp point, which with the pleasing weight of the iron and crystal make them perfect for quickly and painlessly drawing a bead of blood for spells from a finger or thumb!
ALSO, many use them for candle magick as a scribe, as they are way easier to use for engraving candles or wood with symbols, sigils and words. If you have been used to using your witches’ dagger or athame to do these things, then you will love how much easier and elegant these beautiful ritual tools are to use. Some even use them as mini pocket wands, a purse sized version of one of Paul’s much larger iron and crystal wands!
The crystal further lends its power to the spell, which is why we offer so many options! Maybe a carnelian for success and power, or a ruby for will and strength, or rose quartz or copper for love!
Paul is a practitioner of traditional witchcraft, a third degree wiccan high priest and ceremonial magician.
Each of Paul's witchcraft ritual tools are unique. There is no plan beforehand, the tool is allowed to manifest as it wills, Paul just helps it along. The twists back and forth talk to the dual nature of magick, as does the contrast between the light shiny detailed areas of the burin and the darker forge blackened inner areas.
Iron is sacred to Mars and therefore perfect for a weapon of manifestation and will such as the wand! The Tubal Cain mythos also has iron as a tool of our will and apostasy, Yahweh after the expulsion from Eden told Adam and Eve they would have to scrabble among the thorns for their food... But Tubal Cain, 7th son of Cain had other ideas and discovered the working of iron and became the first blacksmith. To the Tubal Cain currents of witchcraft iron is therefore a tool of our will. In Traditional English cottage witchcraft the Fae Folk are scared of iron and therefore iron tools can be used to protect against or control the Fae.
