The opening credits of the OVAs from the 1990s briefly show Belldandy on a broomstick, followed by Skuld riding a vaguely broom-shaped flying machine, and finally in a subversion of a subversion Urd riding a canister vacuum with the hose draped around her like a feather boa. Though the image of the broomstick stuck, early depictions in 15th- and 16th-century Europe show witches flying on a wide range of items, including stools, cupboards, wardrobes and two-pronged cooking forks, Zika said.

Flying Broomstick
Brooms are the traditional flying mount of the Witch Classic (and many a contemporary). According to The Other Wiki the idea of witches riding on brooms goes back to at least 1453. In the original woodcuts, they've got the head or brush part in front, logical enough since the original witch's broom was a staff with a carved phallic end and the brush was tied on as a disguise. Today's depictions most often put the head in the back, for sake of an aerodynamic appearance (and for similarity with an exhaust pipe or jet engine).
As brooms aren't exactly designed to be ridden upon, riding one would require really good balance so as not to fall off, especially when really high up. Prospective witches and warlocks should also try not to land wrong while sitting on their brooms either or you'll end up "Riding the Rail" if you know what I mean. But if these difficulties are discussed at all, there will usually be a Hand Wave about how the same magic that causes the broom to fly also makes the experience more comfortable than it logically ought to be.
At some point, witches were portrayed as riding the brooms side-saddle, similar to how women traditionally rode horseback. If two witches are shown together, the difference in how they sit on their brooms usually relates to a Tomboy and Girly Girl dynamic.
Appearance-wise, these broomsticks are almost always the old-fashioned kind made by tying bristles in a rough cone around the end of a long stick; modern brooms are very rarely put to such uses. When they are, it'll often be as a joke on witches getting on with changing times. In these cases, however, it's likelier for the joke to be pushed further and to show the witch riding around on a vacuum cleaner; even more recently, witches might be seen flying on roombas, as an ultra-modern broom.

For the Speculative Fiction version see Rocket Ride. Compare Sky Surfing, in which various flying objects are ridden on while standing: particularly daredevil witches may well do this on their brooms. If also used as a weapon, it's a Broomstick Quarterstaff.

Reviews for "Everyday Magic for Love and Relationships: Manifesting Soulmate Connections"
1. Sarah - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with "Everyday Magic Book". The description made it sound like it was going to be full of practical tips and tricks for incorporating magic into everyday life, but instead, it was just a collection of basic spells and rituals. The book lacked depth and substance, and I didn't find it helpful at all.
2. John - 1/5 stars - I couldn't even bring myself to finish "Everyday Magic Book". It was poorly organized and poorly written. The author didn't provide enough context or explanations, assuming the reader already had a solid understanding of magic concepts. The spells and rituals mentioned were vague and unclear, leaving me with more questions than answers. I would not recommend this book to anyone looking for a comprehensive guide to everyday magic.
3. Emily - 3/5 stars - "Everyday Magic Book" was just okay for me. While there were a few interesting spells and rituals mentioned, overall, I found the book to be quite repetitive. The same concepts and ideas were presented multiple times with just slight variations, making it feel monotonous. Additionally, the writing style was dry and lacked excitement. I was hoping for a more engaging and innovative approach to everyday magic, but sadly, this book fell short for me.
4. Michael - 2/5 stars - I must admit, I was underwhelmed by "Everyday Magic Book". The spells and rituals mentioned were quite basic and didn't offer anything new or unique. I was hoping for more creative and inventive ways to incorporate magic into my daily life, but instead, I found myself bored and unimpressed. The book also lacked practical examples or real-life anecdotes, which would have made it more relatable and interesting. Overall, I wasn't impressed with this book and wouldn't recommend it to others.
