What Voldemort's Wand REVEALS About Him - Harry Potter Explained

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we're going to be discussing wands- specifically, the wand of Lord Voldemort and what it MEANS.What's one way that we can identify someone's nature without knowing anything about them at all? Is it even possible?Well, as it so happens, yes it is.Thanks to the existence of wands, we can learn a lot about a person simply by taking a quick glance at the wand clenched in their hand.Of course, to the untrained eye a wand will appear to be nothing more than a glorified piece of wood- and that doesn't tell us anything.But fortunately, thanks to the expertise and guidance of Garrick Ollivander, owner of Ollivander's wand shop in Diagon Alley, we now have the ability to carefully dissect each component of the wand. And with this information, we're able to ascertain exactly what a certain wand says about a witch or wizard. It's no exact science, but it can certainly tell us SOMETHING.Today, we're going to be taking a look at Lord Voldemort, and uncovering what exactly VOLDEMORT'S original wand says about him- the wand given to him by Ollivander when he visited Ollivander's wand shop just like all of the other witches and wizards in his year. We're going to be dissecting wood, core, length, and flexibility- starting with wood.Socials: https://linktr.ee/hptheory Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
