What goes into a Book of Shadows?


This should be an accurate record of all the magickal things that you do. It should also contain research information, facts and figures on subjects such as astrology, elements, herbs crystals, ect. You can enter words of wisdom and insights that you have had.
I have made a basic outline of how your book of shadows would be set out, of course the end product is your decision, you have to feel comfortable with your book.

I. Book Blessing
II. Favourite Quotes and Magickal rules
III. Index
IV. Magickal information

Alphabet (magickal) Research
Astrological Correspondences
Candle magick research
Compass point research
Dowsing research
Earth magick research
Element tables
Ethics

Graphology
Magick correspondence tables
Moon magick research
Psychic protection research
Colour magick research

Tarot research

The list can go on much more than I have put here, but this is only a guide, what you enter is up to you.
As in any magickal endeavour, you must keep an accurate record, and maybe hundreds of years from now, your book could be a family heirloom.
