Besom Symbolism / Witch's Broom Symbolism In Ireland, the besom,
or witches broomstick, was sometimes called a "Faery's Horse." Today,
"jumping the broom" has become an important aspect of Wiccan Handfastings,
symbolizing the transition from the Maiden phase of life to that of the Mother.
They are also used to sweep the circle (or any area) free of unwanted energies,
so that the desired energy can fill the space. The broomstick is a phallic symbol
used by female witches in fertility rites, and it is from this idea that the
witches of Halloween ride broomsticks. The sweeping end was traditionally made
of the broom herb, a feminine herb with a phallus-like knob beneath the straws.
