Taxus brevifolia, the Pacific yew or western yew, is a conifer native to the Pacific Northwest of North America. It ranges from southernmost Alaska south to central California, mostly in the Pacific Coast Ranges, but with isolated disjunct populations in southeast British Columbia and the north to central Idaho.

Popular on the West Coast and much easier to find, owners of Pacific yew wands are ambiverts. The balance between being an extroverted party person and being the introverted mom friend. This can confuse those who do not know them well– they could be considered duplicitous. Growing up, these witches and wizards need specific conditions to be met to thrive and reach their maximum potential. They are easily influenced by their environment and the people around them. Having their time highly structured helps them stay on track and feel less anxiety.

They are highly organized and feel more comfortable when everything is scheduled or kept neat and separate. Their possessions being moved without their permission can stress them out, as does their plans and appointments being shifted without previous notice. At their best, these people are advocates for others. They are advocates for truth, change, and self-love. They live by their actions, and they recognize and fulfill their own needs. They desire to see others do the same and be able to advocate for themselves for what they need to succeed.
