Direct Violet Wand Techniques
Violet Wands can create sensations that range from erotic fizzy tingles to painful shocks and everything in between, so they take a little bit of experimenting. Test your settings and electrode on yourself first. Your Violet Wand is the power supply, and every electrode you choose will be different with different intensity levels and sensations.
The Mushroom Electrode is a good mid-range electrode, so start there. Most Violet Wand kits include a mushroom since they are mid-range and all purpose.
You can safely play with jewelry on, and even with piercings, but remember that jewelry and especially piercings will draw more sparks than surrounding naked skin, so removing jewelry and piercings is up to you.
If you prefer to remove it or leave metal wherever you desire a more intense sensation to occur. You can even add metal where you want more intense sparks, such as nipple clamps.
There Are Three Main Base Violet Wand Techniques and These Refer to Your Main Setup.
Direct technique is when you plug an electrode into the Violet Wand and apply the sparks directly to someone; it is the most commonly used. Then, the different electrodes provide the different sensations.
But there are two more base techniques, Indirect and Reverse. Without them, you limit yourself to only 1/3 of what a Violet Wand can do. Indirect technique allows you to electrify your own touch, to send sparks from your fingertips, or your tongue or anywhere else.
And Reverse technique lets you pick up Violet Wand floggers or other conductive toys with complete freedom of movement.
Bridge Violet Wand Techniques.
Getting from Direct to Indirect can be tricky, so these two Bridge Violet Wand techniques are a tutorial to help you get comfortable with the properties of Indirect.
Bridge #1: While you have the Mushroom Electrode in the Violet Wand and the wand is on, hold the electrode directly on someone’s skin. They will not feel a spark but the electricity will flow into them. Then, have that person tap someone else. The first person becomes electrified, so when they tap the second person, they produce a spark!
This is because humans are made up of a lot of water and are slightly salt, so the human body is conductive to electricity. Some people are more conductive than others too. Make a daisy chain of people this way, with each person in the chain becoming electrified. Eventually the electricity will die down as it travels through bodies and will peter out. So loop your ‘daisy’ chain back around if you have more people.
Bridge #2: Hold onto the Mushroom Electrode tightly with your left hand, and tuck your Violet Wand under your arm and turn on the wand with your other hand. You will not feel the electricity but you are now electrified. When you touch someone you will make a spark.
And, the spark can come from any part of your body! You will also make a spark if you bump into a metal table leg etc. You want to manage where the spark goes just like you manage where flogger tails go.
Indirect Violet Wand Techniques
After you do the two bridge techniques, you have a good idea of what happens with Indirect. Indirect is the base technique that allows you to electrify your own body and you become the electrode’ You can send sparks from your fingertips, or from any other part of your body. The electricity will pass through you, and you wont feel it till you touch someone. Here’s how:
You will need a Body Contact Cable for Indirect technique. You can learn about them here and here
Get Started
Insert your Mushroom Electrode into the Violet Wand, but do not twist! Use a straight motion. Twisting an electrode while you take it out or put it in will loosen the wand’s contacts over time, and can pull off your electrode end cap or crack the gas seal. So, put them in and take them out with a straight motion. If the Violet Wand has a separate power control, turn it on and begin with the lowest setting.
Using the electrode, apply the charge directly to your subject, experimenting with control settings, different electrodes, and distance you hold the spark away from the skin to achieve different sensations.
You can experiment with many different types of electrodes to insert directly into the Violet Wand, as they will all have different sensations and effects!
Reverse Violet Wand Techniques.
Violet Wand techniques are numerous, but you can experiment and experiment. And, what if you want more freedom of movement than with Indirect? Then use your Body Contact Cable in Reverse, such as attaching the Body Contact Cable to your partner instead of to you. This helps that they can drop the handle of the cable if the intensity becomes too much, acting like a safe-word So, Reverse is a great way to get beginners in love with the Violet Wand and open them up to new Violet Wand techniques.
Have them lie down, stand, or sit on the body contact pad, or duct tape it to their body, as long as there is good contact between the pad and their skin.
When you turn on the wand, Your subject person becomes their own Violet Wand electrode! Now touch them with a Violet Wand toy, and they still get the sparks while you get complete freedom of movement.
But, don’t stop there, Violet Wands are made for experimenting! Attach the Body Contact Cable to a metal rack that your subject is bound to, or to the Violet Wand Rope or metal chains that you use to tie them up.
Tips and Tricks.
There are more advanced Violet Wand techniques like knife-play, and you don’t have to use a sharp knife. If you use a butter knife with a Body Contact Cable and Reverse, the knife will feel like cutting. You can even chill it for cold metal plus hot sparks.
Use a handful of Christmas garland and a Body Contact Cable for fluffy feel plus hundreds of tiny pinprick sparks. And yes, you can do electrified oral sex, so experiment! You will find you will never get bored with a Violet Wand.

You can find more good information on Violet Wand safety and use at The Violet Wand Directory of Information.
Get Started.
Plug the Body Contact Cable into your Violet Wand. Tuck the long handle end against your skin somewhere; in your waistband or in your sock, anywhere it makes good contact with your bare skin. You can even duct tape it to yourself, or tuck it into a corset top where breasts hold it firmly.
Turn on the wand.
Now you are the electrode, and you are electrified! Yes you can touch your partner with your bare hands, but that is just the beginning. Pick up any Violet Wand conductive toy such as Mylar Floggers, Finger Talons, Pinwheels, Ball Chain Floggers, or our Laser Knife and Glowdius Violet Wand sword, and the charge will pass from you to the Violet Wand toy which delivers the spark to your partner.
Each Violet Wand toy feels different, with different sensations and properties. So there are lots of Violet Wand accessories to choose from, whether you like picky sparks or lots of fizzy sparks, or a single hot spark.
Endless fun!
