You gave me inspiration! I love the organizational and clean feeling of a binder and protective sheets! I think I will make mine in a Binder vs a book bind. Thank you for sharing. Beautiful
Butterfly Magic with Hot Tea I haven’t made a video in a long time. I’ve been meaning to, but there aren’t any issues I’d like to or can share with my subscribers. I might do a video about this cat I took in...I’ve been wondering if he’s some kind of familiar. It won’t be too interesting though unless you love cats!
@@waterboundwitch3921 Maybe you would like to make video responses to some of my videos.... as a suggestion to get back into making some. It could be fun.
Thank you for sharing. Your book is beautiful. I like the idea of using a binder for ease of adding, removing and customizing your book as you and your practice grows.
I have a binder came with a leatherett cover ( fake leather) got it of eBay I enjoy working in it adding art and headings ect I like yours you are so artistic I can't can't draw pentacles correct way up so I usually trace or draw it first and turn paper round after
you have a very nice BoS. thanks for taking the time to show it. I can remember (well before internet, and even computers) Wiccans were so unwilling to share and show off such things. So much different than before, so much more open. Again, thanks for sharing.
I find binders work well for me i always completely destroy a journal everytime I get one cause im pretty sure i have Adhd im very perfectionist. So i end up.tareing practically all the pages out on my journals cause i mess up so much! So yeah no more journals plus i find its more creative cause i can choose what kind of paper how much paper ect and design a cover myself. Plus if i mess up.it is so eazy to take out a page and replace it with a new page
this information, everything I need. I have been wiccan since I was twelve but I think it's time for an initiation, can you guide me to where I can be initiated. I live in toronto. I look forward to hearing from you. Blessed Be
I actually ordered sheet protectors in bulk from cranebinders.com and they are super cheap and very thin. So i have about 400 sheets in a 2 inch swing hinge binder
Thank you for showing your BoS! I’ve struggled with the desire for aesthetic, but also desired something practical that could accommodate categories...personal reflection, herbs, astrology, tarot readings, etc. I love how beautiful blank journals are in the stores but you’re forced to document things chronologically, I’d hate to be frantically flipping through pages trying to find what I want. Awesome idea about drilling holes to stitch the fabric btw!
Nisimarie Thank you! My book of shadows has actually changed quite a bit. I will say a lot of witches use their book of shadows as a means of journaling so the chronology doesn’t matter, but I wanted to use mine as a reference book which is why I chose this method. I recommend it! Recently in my book, I’ve taken to typing script out in a legible format then burning the edges and pasting it in like a scrapbook so it can have a nice whimsical aesthetic while still being legible, particularly when it’s dark.
300 ppi is best for higher quality printing! 72 is really nice for screen viewing but like you said, prints a little pixelated. But I Loved the style of your book! Definitely some cool inspiration
+Gio Intia I did it myself. I bought computer paper and put hot tea in a casserole dish and let one sheet sit in it submerged for about 2 minutes...longer for each sheet as the tea cools. I gently crinkle the paper then unfold it and let it dry, all individually. Be sure to get more higher quality computer paper. Also if you print on the paper like I did, the paper sometimes gets caught in the printer and is destroyed. Frustrating, but I like the outcome when it works.
Nyaleab Gach A lot of people recommend journaling to keep records as you go on your journey. I started an online journal just writing down all my thoughts and feelings and I think it's been helpful. A lot of people put those in their BOS but I decided to keep my journaling separate from my research, spellwork, etc. It's really up to you!
Ps to + Carolina Gomes (Cangacerios) For someone who knows a little bit of history you conveniently left out the children and men that were killed as well, not just women. So if 80% of women where killed in those times is your excuse for being insulted, then I am insulted by your comment for leaving out the children and men who also died in that time period. Your comment came across as being one sided to me, but that's just my opinion. Your right go feel as insulted as you want after all no one knows better then you. Have a blessed day. )0(
hi im a new wicca or witch i guess i like to say wicca better im 20 and found out recently i have letters ontop of one hand and fingers i was hoping someone could help me out DK underneath VL then i noticed they come up at night so now kinda faded but pinky has N then HB VA after HN AY M and maybe a B from what i remember what is the book of shadows and any tip on improving cursive not only am i a witch but i can sense spirits and feel them when they touch me normally while im sleeping im also intuned to peoples feelings as well i have no clue how powerful i am as a new wicca i live with my parents so i cant practice magic sadly any tips on controlling new magic as well
mindless child where did you get the I dear it was stolen from the Ancient Egyptians it could have been any culture I read your comment and I am interested I an interested in all things Egyptian thanks
Yes it is. I have a longer video talking about that but I will be uploading a video in the future talking about how I'm separating my involvement with that figure into a separate practice since Satanist philosophy and practice is different from Wicca and doesn't have a place in it. I've also taken that drawing out of my BOS.
Love your BOS, but what was that Baphomet? You said he wouldn't be permanent, and I think you shouldn't use a figure so negatively charged as him as your god. Just personal opinions though. Great job!
Wendigo of the North Woods The figure in the drawing is actually my depiction of Azazel and I gave him the head of Baphomet. I don't view Satanic figures as something negative but rather humanistic Promethean heroes who have the best interest of human being's feelings and thoughts in mind. As I progress, I have separated Azazel from my Wiccan practice and he is a figure that I am exploring individually. Thank you for your comment!
Baphomet or the sabbatic goat of Eliphas Levi just recently got his bad rap, before used to symbolize the great work, the Union of opposites. Quite an apt symbol for magic.
I think I saw a picture of a saint on your Book of Shadows. I also think you said his name. Why did you add him? Just wondering. I feel like it's an insult to the people who died protecting this tradition. I am an Atheist, and I feel insulted to see that. Good looking book, by the way.
Returded Jesus Whatever happened was probably over one thousand years ago, Get over it, the world doesn't work like that anymore and don't you think people get insulted with the photo you use as your you tube account profile, don't talk about insult when you do exactly the same.
Secrets of the Sphinx Sphinx, the one's who has died protecting this tradition was the witches. And the tradition is being a polytheistic... Many years ago, happened what today it's called "Witche's Hammer" they killed wall the witches for not believing in one only God, and saints, and Christ.. So... Maybe you should read more about that... Just saying...
Carolina Gomes I have had the opportunity to read a lot of material regarding these subjects and while the ideas are quite romantic, they are widely refuted. I am interested in reading material that has found to be contrary to the those that discredit these claims but I have found no peer-reviewed sources published in the last few decades that support these proclamations. Can you provide any for me?
Secrets of the Sphinx Apology accepted. All the pagans of all traditions who died in rebellion against the Roman Catholic Church Before and During the "holy" Inquisition. Those people made the traditions of today, strive. You owe it to them.
Hailey Hoopes You can do whatever works best for you and it's also depending on how you use it. If it's for reference while in circle (which I do frequently) a book might be better but if you prefer to have it digital, a tablet might be less cumbersome than a laptop. It's also important to have back up copies. I have my content written in Google docs that way I don't lose it if something happens to my hardrive.
ben ammar insaf You don't have to have a teacher. Most people start off by picking up books. I've read a lot of different books and I think a good place to start is Scott Cunningham's Wicca: Guide for the Solitary Practitioner. It comes highly recommended from a lot of Non-Traditional Wiccans. If you are interested in becoming a Traditionalist, then my suggestion would be to go to Witchvox.com and find a British Traditional Wiccan coven and apply to join. If they are interested in you joining their group, then they will train you for some time before you join. However, before reading books or searching for covens, it really wouldn't hurt to just look up Wicca on Wikipedia. Click all the links, look into all the connecting concepts and look through the history. It'll give you a general idea of what it's all about and lead to good decisions for yourself. Good luck!
ben ammar insaf I think it is awesome being a Solitary. It is a lot more work for sure but it is totally worth it in my opinion. You can still study for the classic year and a day. I have not yet read Scott Cunningham's Wicca: Guide for the Solitary Practitioner quite yet, unfortunately . I would say defiantly give that a try because EVERYONE recommends it (: My favorite to recommend for just starting out right now is The Complete Idiot's Guide to Wicca and Witchcraft by Denise Zimmermann and Katherine A. Gleason. Do not judge a book by its cover, it is full of knowledge and my ultimate favorite...(so far) LOL Blessed Be.
Secrets of the Sphinx and Megan Lewis it's hard for me to start im doing my best by internet i do lot of research latetly....it's hard because where i come from no one heard about wicca they dont even know about it ...a bout books it's hard to find here....i think what i need is people of this believe to hellp me....even after the year and a day i still gonna be alone ....thank u im doinging m best to learn
this information, everything I need. I have been wiccan since I was twelve but I think it's time for an initiation, can you guide me to where I can be initiated. I live in toronto. I look forward to hearing from you. Blessed Be

I LOVE HOW YOU DID YOUR BOS! Gave me some great ideas for my own binder BOS. Thank you.
people saying that pagens should turn to christians are wrong as pagens were in this world first
it doesn't matter at all..
Christians should leave their mind control cult...
the "s" is drilling my ears
Ugh you're right. I was watching another video of mine and thought of your comment. I think it's because I have a diastoma.
I really enjoyed watching this. It's a beautiful BOS
Butterfly Magic with Hot Tea Thank you!
Do you still make content? Have you updated your BOS? These videos are my fave.

I named my cat after Ostara because she was born on Easter
Very nice. I have a three ringed binder as well. Book of Shadows, to me, are never completed that is why the 3-ring works so well.

I love your bos,,what paper did you use? It looks luke the paper is old and cool so what paper is it??
+Gio Intia It's tea stained paper.
+Secrets of the Sphinx where did you buy it?
+Gio Intia I did it myself. I bought computer paper and put hot tea in a casserole dish and let one sheet sit in it submerged for about 2 minutes...longer for each sheet as the tea cools.

Megan Lewis Thank you! With the exception of the drawing, yes.
That is an awesome idea. Very creative and it truly is all about the energy you put into it. Literally (; You're welcome!
I've learned a lot thank you .
But if I'm a beginner in Wicca should I make a book already or wait?

was it hard to get your cover materials?
Louise Cooper you mean the fabric?
Waterbound Witch sorry I should have been clearer yes it looks interesting
Louise Cooper I got the materials from a large craft retail store called Joann Fabrics. All on clearance 😌
Waterbound Witch thanks
Where to get that image of God in your book ??
I don't understand your question.
I have the same ring lol
mindless child where did you get the I dear it was stolen from the Ancient Egyptians it could have been any culture I read your comment and I am interested I an interested in all things Egyptian thanks
On 3:44 that drawing is holding an upside down pentagram doesn't that mean that that is satanic ?
Yes it is.

+Wendigo of the North Woods Actually you can use all sorts of Gods and Goddesses as and when you need them. Its not negative to change who you use.
What? She shouldn't work with a deity because of what other people think? I don't think that's how paganism works.
I think I saw a picture of a saint on your Book of Shadows. I also think you said his name. Why did you add him? Just wondering. I feel like it's an insult to the people who died protecting this tradition. I am an Atheist, and I feel insulted to see that. Good looking book, by the way.
