Goddess Touched

Hey! Hey! Another good thing (along with the good words from my friends) raises up my spirits today - my artisan handcrafted natural Blackthorn wand came today! Long associated with the Dark Crone aspect of Goddess and the sacred witches' Sabbat of Samhain, mystical Blackthorn works to release emotional toxins, clear the mind of baneful energies, break through the veil seemingly separating the physical and spiritual worlds, and reveal in unity the seen with the unseen.

The wood from which my Blackthorn wand was created was harvested from a large hedgerow in the Legendary Isle of Avalon, which is now the present day town of Glastonbury, England. The artist who crafted this exquisite wand has an ancient standing stone circle on her property inside which she cleansed and charged my wand under the light of the Full Moon. Entirely handcrafted, into the wood of the wand's handle is carved the magical Ogham letter straif (Gaelic/Irish for Blackthorn).

My blackthorn wand measures 16 1/2 inches in length and about 3/4 inch at the base.

I love my beautiful Blackthorn wand!
