The Oak Fairy is very powerful and shares strength and endurance to those who stay within its aura.
Each acorn is thought to has its own sprite who distances its self from the other fairies; the oak sprite will become very upset and angry if trees are felled or the wildlife is harmed, but generally brings in courage and a strong heart which is needed to face today’s challenges and to journey to the Otherworld.
In addition, the oak fairy brings in steadiness and a deep joy which helps one through all the trauma and challenges.
This wand has been “treated” with beeswax polish following the debarking and sanding process. The following dried herbs have been inserted into the handle of this wand offering additional and traditional protection:
Mugwort – For strength, protection and cleansing
Vervain – for Protection and purification
Yarrow – for clearing negativity and easing fears
