How Powerful Is WANDLESS MAGIC in Harry ...

Harry Potter Theory
About this episode

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today, we’ll be discussing the MOST powerful wandless magic within the wizarding world at large.


Within the Harry Potter series, it’s hard to imagine the majority of the scenes that focus on magic—WITHOUT wands. There are just SO many important and pivotal scenes that all revolve around these magical devices. From the more innocent scenes of The Philosopher’s Stone when Harry Potter himself steps into Ollivanders wand shop for the first time and Hermione schools Ron and Harry on how to pronounce “Wingardium Leviosa” to the more ominous plotlines that deal with the whole twin core thing or Lord Voldemort’s pursuit of the most powerful wand known to exist—the Elder Wand—these magic-wielding sticks are integral to the very heart of the books and the films. And yet—despite all the great and terrible things that witches and wizards are able to do using wands—there are also quite a few other forms of extremely powerful WANDLESS magic out there.
