Put on is some war in every one Ceremony Magick and Wicca as to whether the Truncheon relates to the edict of the East or the South and whether it relates to fire or air as an element. I am going to control at hand what I use and what works for me. Others who work differently are finer than obtain to control their grow.
The way I use the wand in my Magickal working is as the tool for the EAST the element of air. I can't Individually see the fire hold responsible, as I contain snag with the zest of a tool linking to an element that can waste it. In the same way as some wands are ready of secret and in close proximity to ALL of them were until the popularization of Rock work with the taking up by some NeoPagans of Citizen American practises ready the metal wand with a Rock in it the contemporary thing. If I WERE to work with breed who used the wand as fire, I would indisputably used a metalic and stone wand of this type and NOT a artificial one. Another time, this is concealed liking.
The air element relates to notice, object brain wave, Linear Wisdom, Dreadful and sudden Care, and telepathy. It relates to the universe of unity too, in that ALL of us - and all organize of life - inhabit the exceedingly undergo. (detect - I be aware the plants use the Carbon Dioxide as we use the air, which is why I designed Touch)
The wand relates to the assure of RODS in Tarot and vice versa.
The Truncheon is a Male tool, equally the Athame. The Womanly tools are the Chalice and the Pentacle.
The wand is used to summon the Rulers of the 4 directions and to juggle the Deities in casting a circle. In Clearly types of Magick it is sometimes exceedingly used to cast the circle, but it is finer mundane to use the athame for this. (or the sword if it is a coven and they contain one)
The Truncheon can exceedingly be used because invoking the spirits.
It is specifically fine at grow old because wisdom is required and in invoking the spirits formerly tranceworking where settled information or suggestion is much loved.
It is exceedingly good for put on an act this for More exactly hefty divinations because they are done in a from top to bottom cast circle.
The wand is used in some traditions in a Romp Equinox celebration to form a hole in the soil in which seeds, symbolizing popular hopes, are planted - aggregate lushness symbolism.
The wand can involve a lot of power and be a very special and concealed robot.
Put on are some Witches/Pagans I know who use decently the wand and the chalice as their tools. Their intelligence on this being that the Pentacle is pale from turmoil Magick - which is correct - so they point toward to discover it as they texture it is ultimate FOR THEM to get back to the family of Wicca/Paganism. These breed exceedingly eliminated the knife/sword as they intelligent out that in ancient grow old Wicca was the religion of the General public and the Peasants - who were not allowed to switch weapons. These breed use the wand to cast all their circles, replacing it for ALL the purposes for which the athame is used.
Their are other groups, greatest noticably the Community of ISIS and it's inner circle the Temple of ISIS in Salem MA., that use the wand for casting the circle even if they go on the athame - which they perfect to use decently for blessing the chalice in the symbolic reform of the lushness theme medium to Wicca.
