No such thing about it go outside and be around nature that’s magic not sitting in a dark room with candles and a wooden stick trying to conjure up something that is just fiction.

Wands are just a stand in for your Will.

Yes and no. You’ll never be able to do the things like in Harry Potter; it’s fictional. However, wands are real. They are used to focus energy in magic(k) and can be homemade.
“Clichéd as it may sound, the wand is one of the most popular magical tools in Wicca, as well as in some ceremonial magic traditions. It has a number of magical purposes. A wand is used for the directing of energy during a ritual. Because it’s a phallic symbol it is used to represent male energy, power, and virility. Representative of the element of Air (although in a few traditions it symbolizes Fire), the wand can be used to consecrate a sacred space, or invoke deity. ”
Spells in reality, for me, are just releasing energy.
Then again, don’t take my word for it. I know nothing about magick. *beginner*
That’s just my opinion on it.

Many Witches use wands in their workings but it will only ever be a tool. Here’s the scene: Two people going up a mountain. One wants a clear, clutter free path. One with no stones or sticks lying in their way. The other is nervous about how high up the mountain goes & would prefer a path riddled with stones & sticks to grab onto & help to lever themselves up the path. Magical tools are the stones & twigs. The only real magic is found in Nature, a child’s imagination & in your own power of intent of course.

Wands are only used to direct energy, like the magical knife (aka: Athame). It doesn’t do anything other than direct the energy to cast a circle. Other than that it sits on the altar until needed again.

Wands are not necessary. Candles are.
