Day 18: Book of Shadows
I have one Book of Shadows – a Pagan’s collection of rituals and spells (the how-tos and information) – the binder. I like to move things around and a 3-ring binder allows for that. I can add things as I find them and try them out. And I can remove things that I no longer do and that no longer serve my practice.
The journal (why, YES, that is the Deathly Hallows symbol from Harry Potter – I thought it to be hilarious) is what I call a Book of Mirrors. This is more of an actual journal than the Book of Shadows. Think of the Book of Shadows more as a How-To Guide and the Book of Mirrors as a memoir. In the Book of Mirrors I write about how I felt about a particular ritual or spell. Poetry and art find their ways into the Book of Mirrors easily. Though, to be honest, I haven’t worked in my Book of Mirrors in quite some time. ::sighs:: Too much other stuff going on. But I do document various Pagan-related things in my blog and my Catch-All/Bullet-Journal that will EVENTUALLY make their way into the Book of Mirrors and possibly the Book of Shadows as well.
That is of course, if I ever actually get on the ball about this stuff. ::laughs::
