Two symbols, one broom, and a lot of layered history
The besom is one of the oldest ritual tools in Western folk practice. Its function is simple: you use it to sweep a space of stagnant or unwanted energy before circle work, meditation, or ceremony. The bristles never touch the floor during that kind of use. You’re moving air and intent, not dust. What makes this particular broom interesting is what’s at the top and center of it.
The triple moon charm at the center of this broom carries the waxing crescent, full moon, and waning crescent, the visual shorthand for Maiden, Mother, and Crone in Wiccan and modern pagan practice. That’s well-trodden symbolic territory. But nested right at the heart of that triple moon is a Star of David, the Magen David, a hexagram with roots in Kabbalistic mysticism going back to 13th-century Jewish textual tradition, where it appears as a protective seal. The two don’t map onto a single unified tradition. They’re distinct. What you have here is a piece that sits honestly at that intersection, a protective hexagram inside a goddess symbol, without pretending the overlap was always deliberate or ancient.
The broom is capped with celestial quartz, a high-clarity quartz selected for its natural luster and its traditional role in amplifying intention during ritual work. At 12.5 inches, it’s a half inch longer than the Tree of Life version I also carry, and that extra length gives it a slightly more substantial presence on an altar. I stock this piece because the combination of symbols on it is genuinely unusual, and because the quartz topping isn’t an afterthought. It belongs there.
How to use a besom for space clearing
Use this besom to clear stagnant energy from your space before ritual or circle work.
- Consecrate the broom before first use
Hold the broom at chest height with both hands and speak your intention aloud. Name what you are clearing, stale energy, tension, old grief. The celestial quartz at the top acts as a focal point for that declared purpose.
- Sweep the space in counterclockwise arcs
Starting at the back of the space, sweep the broom just above the floor in slow counterclockwise arcs. Do not let the bristles touch. Move room to room, guiding any stagnant energy toward the front door or a window you have opened.
- Close the clearing at the threshold
Once you reach the threshold, pause. Set the broom down with bristles facing up near the doorway. This signals that the clearing is done and invites steady, stable energy to settle back into the space you just worked.
The Tarot Fellow Standard
I carry ritual brooms from a supplier whose consistency I’ve tested across multiple product lines. The charm work is clean, the quartz topping is genuinely attached and not just decorative glue, and the overall construction holds up to regular handling on an altar. That’s the bar. This piece cleared it. One honest note: the bristles are decorative and not designed for literal floor sweeping. If you press them hard against a surface, they will lose shape over time. Keep it elevated, either hanging on a wall, standing bristles-up in a holder, or flat on your altar.

Frequently asked questions
A besom is a ritual broom used to sweep a space of stagnant or unwanted energy before circle work or ceremony. It does not touch the floor during use. Think of it as the energetic equivalent of opening a window before guests arrive.
Celestial quartz is a trade name applied to clear or lightly included quartz with a high clarity and natural luster. It amplifies intention and is commonly paired with ritual tools meant for purification or space-clearing work.
The triple moon shows waxing, full, and waning lunar phases for the Maiden, Mother, and Crone. The Star of David at its center draws from Kabbalistic protection. Both symbols sit together here without flattening into a single tradition.
Hold the broom in both hands, close your eyes, and let yourself be still for a moment. Set a clear intention for what the broom is to do for you. That act of focus is the simplest and most direct form of consecration there is.
