\"Magic\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The Wiccan<\/a> faith involves a lot of symbolism and practitioners use a variety of tools to enhance their rituals and spell work.\u00a0 These tools become like an extension of the self and a way to connect directly with spirit.\u00a0 Choosing the right implements is very important and serves to enhance the experiences of ritual practice.<\/p>\n

Altar tools<\/a> include items like wands, chalices<\/a> and cauldrons<\/a>.\u00a0 When choosing items, it’s important to consider several things.\u00a0 The piece should be one that speaks to you, whether it’s an ornately carved item or something very simple. Altar tools come in many different styles and materials.\u00a0\u00a0 Tools should also be well made and labeled for safety.\u00a0 This is especially true of items like chalices that people drink from, which should always have a \u201cfood safe\u201d rating.\u00a0 Many metals used for d\u00e9cor items have traces of lead and other potentially toxic elements.<\/p>\n

Many spells and rituals require the use of a fireproof vessel. Cast iron cauldrons<\/a> are some of the most durable on the market.\u00a0 They have a very distinct, old-world appearance that adds charm to any d\u00e9cor.\u00a0 Cast iron is easy to care for and will last forever when properly maintained.\u00a0 Stainless steel is another excellent choice for altar tools.\u00a0 Like cast iron, it’s durability ensures a long life.\u00a0 Many altar tools not only provide vital functions; they can become heirloom pieces that are passed down.<\/p>\n

Candles<\/a>, oils and herbs are often used for rituals and spell casting.\u00a0 Candles that are well made produce less toxic smoke and can burn for many hours.\u00a0 Soy candles are always an excellent choice.\u00a0 They are clean burning, environmentally friendly, come in a variety of colors and throw fragrance well.\u00a0 Specialty candles, enhanced with intention specific essential oils, can enhance rituals.<\/p>\n

Incense<\/a> is another common ritual item, but not all incense is created the same.\u00a0 There are a variety of styles from stick incense, to the more traditional resins<\/a> and powders that are burned on coals within a special burner.\u00a0 Resins and powders provide the truest scents and come in a variety of blends.\u00a0 They are often used for purification and cleansing and to open and close ceremonies and rituals. Like candles, there are many types of incense fragrances that are used for specific purposes.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Stones and crystals<\/a> are also popular and serve a variety of purposes.\u00a0 Stones should always be sourced from a trusted authority, ensuring purity and high quality, especially for rarer stones.\u00a0 Loose stones can be collected and used in different combinations.\u00a0 Some love the energy of certain stones so much that they choose tools like pendulums or wands made from that specific stone.<\/p>\n

Amethyst is a great example of a powerful healing stone. Using an amethyst wand or pendulum for healing practices will enhance that work and help promote a soothing, calm atmosphere.\u00a0 Selenite is another stone used to create wands because it draws physical, mental and spiritual healing, making it an excellent choice for focusing on whole being wellness.<\/p>\n

Wicca is a unique and special faith that is highly personal and gives its practitioners a lot of freedom of expression.\u00a0 Choosing the correct supplies is a very special and individual practice and everyone will have their own unique preferences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
