+## Installation
+
+>For those on mac and using homebrew, it seems like Wand doesn't support imagemagick 7 yet as mentioned in other answers.
+>There's a new brew formula for Imagemagick 6 which can be used to install the older version in the meanwhile:
+>brew install imagemagick@6
+>Create a symlink to this newly installed dylib file as mentioned in other answer to get things working.
+>ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/imagemagick@6/<your specific 6 version>/lib/libMagickWand-6.Q16.dylib /usr/local/lib/libMagickWand.dylib
