Overview

For those who begin their journey in the Arts, the term magic can call to mind visions of robbed people working with wands, athames, pentacles, candles, and other man-made artifacts in highly ritualized ways. This is not an erroneous vision at all. Many forms of Wicca and other Witchcraft rely heavily on these tools, and most of them include a ceremonial system influenced, at least to some degree, by magical societies such as the Ordo Templi Orientis and the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. The meaning found in these instruments of the Art adds to their influence in allowing the Witch to achieve the desired effects. And the deliberate energy that goes into creating magic instruments can also be a great boost of strength in this regard. However, sorcery in modern Witchcraft has another basis of influence that many would say is of similar importance: the use of natural instruments in the form of water, wind, earth, stone, fire, fur, feathers, etc. In fact, drawing on the influence of the natural world to manifest one's wish to be is a practice far older than any recognized form of Wicca or other Witchcraft-older than the Western Mystery Tradition altogether. And, of course, the largest and most diverse source of natural magic instruments is the Plant Kingdom. If we're talking about trees, shrubs, creepers, vines, herbs, grasses, evergreens, succulents, annuals, perennials, fruits, crops, or just plain weeds, the realm of plant life has endless possibilities for any Witch eager to learn its secrets.
