[stylist] Harry Potter

[Eve Sanchez]

Ohohoh! And the wand wood. Sean, if you learn of Ogham (pronounced
Ome) you will understand the distinction of the types of wood and the
associated magick. This is Celtic magick and there is a lot of Celtic
influence as these are British Witches. By the way, wizard is an
incorrect term for a male witch which is still a witch, but modern
society has trouble with this so I understand her choice of words even
though it is incorrect. Blessings. Eve
