Book of Shadow
By:
Post # 1

a book of shadows is basicly your journal filled with your magick experiences, spells you write, tools you use, divination, or anything else you want. it has been said that "you must write in your own hand writing to give it meaning" but thats not entirely true. I believe you can type it if you have terrible feeling, and give it meaning if you pour your heart into it. also many say you cant use lose pages, but a binder is also good because you can remove or add whatever needs removed or added.

some possible sections for a book of shadows include:

a tittle cover page

dedication(s) section

divination section

spells section

rituals

herbs

crystals

gemstones

tools/items

people met

important dates

altar designs

astrology

recipes

chants

astral projection

consulting your guide/higher self/ etc

books and reference

dream walking

and maybe even classes you take

each section can have sub categories. depending on what you do.

Some people decide to keep their book of shadows just for things partaining to spells such as the ritual work, ingredients, or incatations and put the more personal stuff in a book of mirrors which is basically a journal in which one reflects upon their magical journey and states their thoughts about it.

Your book of shadows can consist of anything that you want it to be. It does not have to be some grand item that you possess with an lacy exterior.

It is simply an area of space where you keep your magical information together. Some people even have a book of shadows online. (Although I like things the old way so I'd rather write mine in a note book. But to each their own.)
