- "Today we'll learn Lumos Maxima, a modified version of the Wand-Lighting Charm!"
- — Filius Flitwick[src]
Lumos Maxima is the incantation to a charm that can be used to produce a blinding flash of bright white light from the tip of the wand,[1] a modified version of the Wand-Lighting Charm.[2] This light can be thrown far off of the wand, illuminating the surrounding area for several minutes after its initial casting before darkening once more.[3]
Casting
To cast this light-creation spell, one must flick their wand, then draw it back and flick it a second time, after which it will light, as noted in chapter thirty-two of Extreme Incantations by Violeta Stitch. The spellbook also included a diagram depicting the proper casting of this spell.[1]
History
During the 1988–1989 school year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Professor Filius Flitwick taught his fifth year Charms students this spell.[2]
In the summer of 1993, Harry Potter practised the spell while reading the instructions from Extreme Incantations under his bed covers at 4 Privet Drive.[1]
Known practitioners
- Violeta Stitch[1]
- All other second year students[1]
Etymology
The incantation is derived from the incantation for its predecessor, "Lumos", and the Latin word "maxima", which means "very great" or "greatest".
