While the wand itself doesn't change, its connection to Harry evolves throughout the series. Here's how:
* Growing with Harry: The wand's magic seems to grow stronger alongside Harry's own magical abilities. It becomes more responsive to Harry's intentions and more powerful.
* Shared History: The wand core was taken from the same phoenix that gave a feather to Voldemort's wand. This unusual connection between the wands contributes to the events of the series, such as Harry and Voldemort's ability to perform the same spells.
* Reflecting Harry's Growth: In the early books, Harry's wand is often described as acting independently, sometimes even without his conscious control. As Harry gains confidence and control over his magic, his wand becomes more obedient and less prone to unexpected actions.
While Harry's wand itself remains physically unchanged, its magical capabilities and its connection to Harry are constantly evolving, mirroring his own journey and growth as a wizard.
