It is a requirement that when you are planning to do a ritual work you should have the proper tools. Tools helps/aid the magician on their work. Some practitioners that they don't even need tools to do any form of magic. That wasn't right. Tools are merely an objects to where you can focus and set your mind on the ritual workings. With it we can easily become aware on what we do specially on our subconscious mind. Because our inner strength has something to hold onto that is real, so that our minds can attach meanings to what is happening.
"Bellow are the list of possible tools that are useful for ritual and spell workings"
"Robe"
Robe is a symbol of magic, it serves as a shield to its wearer. It also serves as a defense against hostile forces and energies that might interrupt the ritual. The robe helps the magician to gain courage and to build Strength.
One should make their own robe, for the more work you put into your tools, the more energy it will contain. Because if you use a robe that is made by another individual you might get distracted by the energies and thoughts attached into it by its maker.
NOTE: Robes are for Adept only!

There are allot more tools that I did not write above like Salt, Holly water, candles, dolls, and may more. But basically these are the minor tools/materials. What I've put above are tools that I consider as the major tools. Logically the tittle of this thread is so in general, it can have allot of extension topics. So correct me If I had write some wrong information about each tool. Or you can add some of your knowledge in accordance to the topic to further clarify it..
