How to Organize Your Book of Shadows/Grimoire

A great recommendation on how to do so! Remember, though, this is only an opinion: always follow your intuition and include what feels right! There may be topics on this list that are not applicable to your practice and/or don't interest you, and that is okay. Each book of shadows/grimoire is unique item that should be personal to you and you alone.

Full moon in Capricorn on July 13th. More at typewriter_astrology on Instagram (watch for fake accounts)


Big changes are underway – and we’re ready for them! Matters of fate, destiny, and spiritual evolution are coming front and center. The universe is giving us a big push forward. The pull towards the future is undeniable.
We’re supported in healing and letting go of our past, and in creating a future we truly desire. We’re getting clear on where we’re going and what we’re leaving behind. It’s time to release old, conditioned ways of being that are out of alignment with who we truly are — and to consciously choose what is in alignment with our authentic truth. And we are beautifully supported in all of this with three powerful trines that are all directly tied into the energy of this full moon.
Great ideas and flashes of insight may dawn upon us now. We are ready to make things real. Something that feels like a well-earned reward could be materializing into reality.The major themes coming up at this time revolve around self-worth, and learning to feel safe, secure, at peace, and grounded within ourselves. We are being gifted with more clarity about what to do with the intensity that came up around the new moon (on June 28th).
However, the push to let go can be quite uncomfortable. Past pain has been brought to the surface because we must see it clearly before we can move on. Emotions can feel intense and heavy. Our heart and mind may feel like they are on different pages. But there is a strong sense of readiness; holding onto the past may feel unbearable or like it isn’t even an option anymore. This push forward is a blessing, no matter how uncomfortable it may feel.
There also continues to be strong support for practicing detachment – being the conscious observer of our thoughts and feelings, and allowing them to be without getting taken over by them. Overall, there is a lot of beautiful, healing, forward-moving, and even exciting energy surrounding us at this time.

Witchcraft: A Guide to Incense + Correspondences
ー
Caution:
Never leave incense to burn unattended! If you have to leave the room, extinguish it first by dipping the tip in water.
Only use incense in well-ventilated areas! Remember, incense is a smoke and breathing it in is not very healthy. Do not use it indoors unless you are in a very well-ventilated room.
Likewise, use it sparingly! There are plentiful alternatives to cleansing and creating a magical atmosphere besides incense that are just as effective. (Many witches and practitioners who can't have smoke in their spaces use water solutions to cleanse!)
Overall, if you use incense properly, safely, and sparingly, it should not pose you any health problems.





Witchcraft: Constructing

Did you know you don't have to use other peoples spells? You, yourself, can create your own individual spells for your own purposes regardless of your experience level. Below are some basic tips for making a spell worthy of writing down.
Naming:
The process of naming a spell is completely optional and always should be. It is my personal recommendation that a Spell Name should correlate with the intention of aforementioned spell. Implementing a simplified summary of the ceremony itself into the title can also be benefital.
Planning:
Constructing a spell will require planning. Taking aspects such as correspondences, instruments, location, and weather into account can amplify the spell’s effect as well. I recommend cleansing and charging your items before preforming it, and resting your self to be full prepared with optimum energy.
Timing:
In magic, time has its own correspondences ranging from segments of the day to Moon Phase, Weekly, Monthly, and Seasonal correspondences. If you are going to preform a spell, you can utilize timing for stronger magical effects.
Instruments:
Instruments can be very diverse in variety but can be chosen based off of the correspondence or use of a particular item. For example, If your intention was to attract abundance and fortune, filling a Chalice with liquid could suffice perfectly. You are always the best magickal “tool.”
Activities:
What are you going to be doing with your tools to cast this spell? Will you be using a chant, song, or incantation during this ceremony? For example, if you want to banish something. screaming while you are throwing, burning, or burying something is you adding your own energy and labor into this spell.
