of Shadows. This usually starts out as a blank book in which you write down any and all
information you think is interesting or useful to you as a Witch. You should begin yours
as soon as a possible. It can be any sort of book you wish, but remember that it will grow
very fast with the passing of time. In the past 7 years I have about 12 volumes in my
BOS/Grimoire.These books are becoming more readily available from Magick supply stores and
even Bookstores are carrying them. Comments from our members: Mine is a small red notebook-like thing, and very practical and useful. I keep it out of site, but have to admit to only having about half of it filled, since most of everythingI learn is commited to memory (what can I say, my life revolves around Wicca!) by the time I write it down anyway. I put the bigger, more important things in it though, and I have two dragons, whom I named Draco, since they are one spirit, to guard my Grimoire. ~ Andrew (9901.23) I wish I had kept a notebook at least
when I first started out, but I didn't so I can only remember a bit of how I felt when I
first started learning. Now I have notebooks, scraps of paper, e-mails, articles,
books, pictures I've drawn as well as my Grimoire (or Book of Shadows). It is an
essential part of learning, record keeping and also a way of going back and discovering
where you have erred, where you have grown spritually and how your opinions and ideas have
changed. It can be fun re-reading old entries. ~ Rhian (9901.23) My husband and I went out and bought
the biggest 3-ring binders we could find. We then went to the fabric store and bought
fabric and ribbon that we liked. This is how we decorated our B.O.S. We actually have
several of these notebooks now since we are constantly adding to them. My husband is
starting his 4th book, and I'm on my second book. He's been working on his longer than me.
I must say though, that I think these books are just as nice as any I've seen for sale. I
like to sew charms onto the front I am going to try something new with
my latest Grimoire, I have gone out into the woods to look for a grove of Cedar tree's, I
am going to look The tree bark idea is great! I've been
holding onto some large pieces of bark since fall trying to figure out what I wanted to do
with them. My husband originally picked them up in the woods to paint on the back of them,
