Has anyone else in the books done "magic" without a wand?
Neville has bounced out a window without a wand when he was about to
die from the fall. That is the only one I can remember right off
hand. It seems this "power" is a primal magic that cannot be learned
but stems from raw emotions or fear. Harry's incidences have stem
from embarassment (sweater, hair), fear for his own safety (school
roof), pride for his parents (breaking Marge's wine glass and
inflating her), or annoyance (glass in zoo). Every other magic
incidence has come from wands, hasn't it? Even Dumbledore always uses
a wand. Also each of these events have complimented the problem at
hand. Nothing too outrageous but definately not normal. Hey I wonder
if Lily used one of these non-wand magic events to invoke the "love"
or was it purely her sacrifice death alone. Deep magic just is and
can not be invoked. Sorry, kind of talked a long path there. Hope it
is easy to follow. Anyway, I am trying to catch up in reading the
previous posts so sorry if ya'll have ironed these things out before.
