Witch’s Broom Wand (small)

The association between witches and brooms goes back to ancient times. The pagan community would come together for ceremonies to ensure healthy crops. During the ritual they would mount pitchforks, poles, and brooms; and ride them like horses into the fields, leaping high into the air and dancing. During medieval times brooms were a symbol of female domesticity. Since most witches were female, the broom became intrinsically linked with Witches. In modern times, brooms are reminders of the power and unlimited possibilities of the Wiccan path.

This Witch’s Broom Wand is ideal to sit on your altar. The broom is hollow at the bottom, allowing you to insert spells. You can write your spells on a small piece of paper and place them in the broom before casting your spell. Styled after a traditional round broom the Witch’s Broom Wand features an Austrian crystal at the top. The wand is also a perfect gift for Harry Potter fans.

The 6” long
Witch’s Broom Wand
is made of 100% lead-free pewter.

“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated.
In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are
what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.”
– Maya Angelou

Throughout history strong women have been shunned and looked down upon. They have been called various names and oftentimes were persecuted for their knowledge and beliefs. Women are still being persecuted – some subtly, through lower pay and fewer promotions; others more radically, being jailed for speaking up, going to school or wearing the wrong clothes. To honor the power of witches is to honor and support the power of all women.

Our Witch the Power Pendant is a strong statement about a woman’s power. This pendant serves as a reminder of the powers of magic, the strength of women and the freedom that we continue to fight for.

Cast from 100% lead-free pewter, the
Witch the Power Pendant
is a beautiful symbol of what it means to be a powerful witch.

When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator.
– Mohandas Gandhi

In medieval Europe a witch was often a wise woman – one who was skilled in the healing arts. She may have had knowledge of ancient herbal medicines and was often a midwife as well. Her religious beliefs, if she had any, were more often than not based on the ancient environment which surrounded her and thus she had a supreme belief in, and respect for Nature. Her faith lay in the sun, the moon, the forest, and in all livings creatures. She also had a special reverence for the seasons of the year and the seasonal festivals celebrating the change in the weather and the harvesting of crops.

Before the advent of street lights most night travel had to be done by the full moon so these women were often seen traveling by the full moon. Journeying by the full moon would help the witch to reclaim her gifts, talents, and abilities and to renew her skills using the healing power of the full moon.

Witch’s Full Moon Journey Pendant

to bring their healing powers to the people they served.

Star Cauldron Pendant – Pewter

The cauldron is a symbol of transmutation, germination, and transformation. Above all they symbolize the Goddess and also represent the womb; on an altar they represent earth as they are a working tool. The Cauldron bestows wisdom, death, and rebirth. They act as a source of the practice of baptism – entering into the womb of the Mother and being reborn anew.

Our charming Star Cauldron Pendant can be enjoyed as a necklace or used as an altar piece when not being worn. Wicca and the skills of the Witch are honored through this pendant.

A popular piece with Wiccan and pagans, the
Star Cauldron Pendant
is cast from 100% lead-free pewter.

My Other Car Broom Pendant – Pewter

The association between witches and brooms goes back to ancient times, when pagans had rituals to ensure healthy crops. During these ceremonies the participants would mount pitchforks, poles, and broom; and rode them like horses into the fields, leaping high into the air and dancing. The moon represents intuition, magic and mystery. She waxes and wanes from maiden to mother to crone, being reborn again as the maiden symbolizing the endless circle of life.

My Other Car Broom Pendant brings both the broom and moon together as an affirmation of magic and the journeys of consciousness that magical folks undertake.

Made in the U.S. A., My Other Car Broom Pendant is cast in 100% lead-free pewter.

Jeweled Broom Pendant – Sterling Silver

During medieval times brooms were a symbol of female domesticity. Women would often push her broom up the chimney or prop it outside the door to show to callers and neighbors that she was out of the house. It was an easy step to believe that witches, who purportedly could fly, would use their most common tool and soar up the chimney on it. Soon the broom became intrinsically linked with witches. In modern times, brooms are reminders of the power and unlimited possibilities of the Wiccan path.

Our Jeweled Broom Pendant is a subtle reminder of the powers of magic and freedom that are the essence of every witch.

Hand cast in sterling silver, the
Jeweled Broom Pendant
is a beautiful piece of jewelry for any Wiccan or Witchy person to wear and enjoy.
