The Was is an ancient Egyptian symbol depicting a staff made from a dried bull’s penis that was the symbol of power and dominion.
The scepters, which were often actually made of wood, had the head and forked tail of an unidentified animal, possibly related to Seth (who has the head of a similar unidentified animal).
I have been practicing magick alone and with family and friends for over 30 years. As a founder and lead writer on Witchipedia, I’ve been publishing articles since 2006.
It is our mission to provide the most accurate Pagan, occult and magical information.
Our sister website, Magickal Spot, writes about a Full Moon every month! The article is full of Astrological and magickal tips!
