Journey Inside Ollivanders

The wand being an essential tool used by wizards and witches to channel magical powers, makes a visit to Ollivander's Wand Shop a great necessity for wizards and witches before they enter Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Ollivander believes in wandlor which is a specific class of magic that refers to the history and magical properties of wands. Mr. Ollivander claims that it is a complex and mysterious branch of magic. The idea that a wand chooses the wizard is part of wandlore, as is the idea that wands can switch allegiance.

"The wand chooses the wizard. That much has always been clear to those of us who have studied wandlore... These connections are complex. An initial attraction, and then a mutual quest for experience, the wand learning from the wizard, the wizard from the wand." Mr. Ollivander
