Black Ostrich Feather Quill Pen

Product Description

The ostrich feather is a powerful symbol of truth and purity, and writing with an ostrich feather can be a way to focus one’s energies on expressing one’s truth.

BLACK feathers give the mystical wisdom that comes with true spiritual initiation. They also offer protection, and repel negative energy. In some practices they are used for destruction or revenge spell writings. Black corresponds to the 1st or root chakra, and the musical note C. Black, iridescent feathers give mystical insight. Black and white mixed feathers give union and protection. Black (or gray) feathers banded or mixed with white give hope, balance and harmony. Black mixed with purple represents deep spirituality. Black, White, and Blue mixed feathers are said to bring change.

We recommend using our quill pens with our own Magical Inks found right here in our Etsy store. A reminder that quill pens do not HOLD ink and must be dipped frequently.

Quills have been used in traditional Western Magick for centuries for rituals and spell craft. In the US quills are still commonly used in rootwork and hoodoo rituals. Quills are composed of a feather and a metal nib, commonly known as the tip. The tip is joined to the feather using a copper wire; an energy conductor. The feather represents air or the slyphs. The metal nib represents the earth or gnomes. The copper wire connects or conducts the idea or thought through the feather and energizes it through the copper conductor to the metal (or grounding nib) dipped into a specific magical ink to actualize your spell, desire or intention out into the world.

Prior to the writing implements of today, quill pens were common, everyday writing tools. This includes medieval times up through the beginning of the Industrial Age. Many people who work with magick and spells favor the old-fashioned quill pens to enhance the writing of spells, petitions, pacts and much more. Color symbolism may also be taken into account based on your intention.
