Flying Broomstick



A flying broomstick is a normal broom charged with a witch's magic. It was one of the means employed by witches to transport themselves between locations.

The broom flies with the witch sitting on it, and can be navigated to fly in any direction the witch wants. The broom also seems to magically gravitate the witch in place, preventing him/her from falling off.

History
The earliest recorded use of the broomstick was in 1670, the sisters and Charlotte Warren were under attack, to scare their attackers, Phoebe Halliwell channeled her magic into a broom granting it the power of flight, she then sat sidesaddle and rode it into the air toward the witch hunters. The witch hunters, spooked, retreated. Afterwards, Phoebe proudly rode against the full moon while her sisters looked on.

It's worthy noting that before Phoebe's flying broomstick stunt, witches traditionally used brooms to sweep evil from their path; Eva, a witch practitioner, told Phoebe this while she taught her how to empower a broom.
