In a world of muggles, we all want to be wizards. In anticipation of the upcoming Harry Potter prequel, Amazon has a few magic tricks up its sleeve. Through a couple of simple search bar hacks, you can now wave your wand and say (type) the magic words and experience life as Harry Potter — or Hermione, maybe; but definitely not Ron.
To use any of the spells, simply type the bolded word into your search bar — wand waving optional.
First we have Aguamenti, which floods your screen with water:

If you’d like to watch the world burn (or at least Amazon’s home page), try Incendio.
There’s Lumos if you’re looking for a guiding light.
Or Reducto if you’re experiencing a case of the Monday’s.
Finally, there’s Orchidheous, a spell that turns the homepage into a sneeze-worthy pollen factory.
If you were expecting a spell for condoms and toilet paper, maybe you should try a programmable Dash button. It’s equally magical, but far more practical.
