Harry Potter Wands

How powerful you are with your wand depends on a few things. The wand itself does not increase your spell casting ability, what it does is focus the ability that you already have. Therefore, choosing the right wand is of great importance.

In Harry Potter, the wand maker, Olivander tells Harry that "the wand chooses the wizard".

Allow your wand to choose you.

Don't rush while choosing your wand, learn about the wood that it is made from, and the magical properties inside the wand.

When choosing your wand, consider the length of the wand. Is it too long, too short? Like Goldilocks, you want one that is just right.

I gave Harry a wand made of holly wood back in 1990, when I first drafted chapter six of 'Philosopher's Stone'.

It was not an arbitrary decision: holly has certain connotations that were perfect for Harry, particularly when contrasted with the traditional associations of yew, from which Voldemort's wand is made.

European tradition has it that the holly tree (the name comes from 'holy') repels evil, while yew, which can achieve astonishing longevity (there are British yew trees over two thousand years old), can symbolise both death and resurrection; the sap is also poisonous.
