keeping the secert :)

And just make that knife a cooking knife and they wont notice:)

thanks guys for the help! ill hide them by not hiding them. (no room on my land to bury right now that isnt frozen, maybe when it warms up)

I feel like hiding it is an immature idea. Been there, done that. You should leave it all out in the open and discuss it openly and honestly, no matter how tough it may be for you. I hid for years and my folks finding out I lied has left a bad mark on the family relationship.

And if you have a box where you keep your stuff even if it is small you can put your smallist things in that box.

I'm in your position, actually. I have a shoebox under my bed, in a box with old things from elementary school that my mother would never think to look in that I put candles, wands, and other obvious things in. My pendulum is, like yours, a necklace I purchased, and I do have two decks of tarot cards, which I bought from a bookstore on my own time that I keep in a sock drawer. If you have crystals or herbs, try getting a few shallow dishes, and setting up the crystals in some display on a bookshelf somewhere. As for herbs, I bought a loose leaf tea strainer, some nice class jars, and I make my own tea with the same herbs I use for magick. I wouldn't recommend burying anything though, unless you have great mapping skills, and if you live in a warm state. Hope this helped some!

lol my mom and dad are ok with it the only time i have to hide it all is when my grandmother shows up trust me my little sister also likes magic and told grandma and she tried to do a exorcist on my sister i had to tell her that it was a joke to get her to stop so now when grandma comes over we all hide our stuff lol

I'm around you are but my parents are accepting so we aren't in the exact same position but.. I just use tools from home. I don't have cauldrons or jewel encrusted athames or anything. I use a pocketknife an a cig lighter for my tools haha! It's easier to hide if it's in plain sight but ordinary objects:) My BoS is a three ring binder. If need be, clear out a drawer in your dresser and put everything in there, then take it out when you need it:) Hope I could help! BB.

you can make/buy a big chest and make an second floor thingy (the thing thats the lowest of the chest) so its in the second (and secret) place in the chest

I agree with not hiding it. The more secretive you try to be,the more suspicious your parents will become.
