The besom is a
tool for ritual and magick, generally used to purify a space before
ritual begins. Before a ritual is performed the practitioner may use a
besom to create a sacred space, by sweeping the area while visualizing
the psychic dirt (negative energy) being cleared away. This ancient
custom also helps to get the mind ready for the ritual, quieting the
mind and narrowing one's focus.
The besom is a
purifier and is viewed by some to be related to the element of water.
The besom is also seen as a symbol of protection. Many witches keep a
besom by their door, or hanging from their door, to protect the home
from unwanted outside energies.

Our small ritual
besoms are 30 inches and come in magenta, purple, and natural. In keeping with ancient tradition, this handcrafted besom
is made from materials from nature, and the handles are made from tree
branches. Styles and colors will vary.
