What’s inside a Witches Book of Shadows?
A book in which a Witch records his or her personal spells, invocations, rituals, dreams, recipes for various potions, and so forth. Some traditions say it must be hand-written, others say it doesn’t matter. A Book of Shadows may be kept by an individual witch or by an entire coven . In the event of a Witch’s death, the Book of shadows may be passed down to his or her children or grandchildren, kept by a High Priestess & High Priest of the Coven (if the witch was a member of
one at the time of her death), or burned in order to protect the secrets of the Craft. whichever course of action is taken, depends entirely upon the customs of the particular Wiccan tradition and/or the Witch’s own personal wishes.
A BOS is also the magickal journal kept by each wiccan initiate, in which spells, invocations, ritual notes, herbal recipes, dreams, divination results and material from the coven book can be recorded. Some people write in Thesbian script or in other alphabets.
Sew into the cover of the Book leaves of the sacred herbs vervain, rue, bay, willow or others, if you wish. They should be well-dried & secretly placed by the light of the moon. The covers of the Book of shadows should, of course, be covered with cloth.
