Fire and Water is a wand like no other. Koa is one of the more
rare types of wood in the world. Found only on the Hawaiian
Islands, this wood was once formed into sacred ceremonial objects as
well as huge canoes by the native Hawaiian people. Today it is
cherished for its beauty, cultural heritage, and its rarity. This
wand was hand carved from just over 12 inches of this lovely wood.
Magickally, Koa is very unique. It possesses both masculine and
feminine properties, and has different associations for each
gender. When dealing with the feminine aspect, this wood is
strongly associated with the element of fire, and also the moon, Venus,
wisdom, beauty, and creativity. When dealing with the masculine
aspect, this wood is strongly associated with water, Jupiter, and Saturn
(the opposition of which gives ebb and flow of energy like the tides).
The symbolism contained within this wand is of the creation process of
the islands from which the wood came. The upward spiral of fire,
rising from the placid expanse of the sea. This is a wand both
artistic and powerful. Elegant, dangerous, calming, and
spiritual... it is impossible to say what might be accomplished.
