How do 당신 start a Book of Shadows?

당신 don't need to use a quill. Some people write their book of shadows on the computer.
First 당신 can add some basic information to your Bos.
And here is a small tip to begin.
Grab 7 sheets of paper;
on the first 당신 write Deity concepts
on the 초 당신 write Tools,altars,jewelry
on the third rituals
on the fourth beliefs
on the fifth rules
on the sixth symbols and runes
on the seventh spells

So 당신 can add information on each page and that will form your Book of Shadows. This is just a tip so it's entirely up to 당신 what 당신 do :)

A Book Of Shadows is your personal book on your experiences of your Craft. In it 당신 write how you're feeling before and after doing a spell 또는 a ritual. How you're going to do your alter and whether any changes occur to it (excluding the natural changes as 당신 go through each monthly holiday) and also reminders as to what 당신 use for each main event and why.
I'm completely different from deathRoman13 - my BoS is mine and mine alone, and that's what i put my own spells in 또는 my favourties i have found and copied. My experiences with Tarot 또는 gems 또는 scrying etc.
What you've called the Grimoire (which i call my second) is where i copy all the main rituals for each event in case i forget what to do and need some prompting, all the different meaning for symbols and runes, other people's spells i have tried 또는 like etc.

To be honest no one can actually tell 당신 how to use your book of shadows as it is yours. All we can tell 당신 is how we use ours. It is your choice and responsibilty to find out what is best for 당신 and your craft :)
