Items To Include In Your Book Of Shadows

Items to include in your Book of Shadows

Everyone’s book will be different because all Witches are different. This list is a bunch of examples I have come across over the years of things you could include in your BOS if you so desired. Nothing on this list is mandatory, nothing here is required. If you don’t know what something is, please feel free to ask! If you don’t think that something on the list is for you, awesome, don’t include it in yours.

Halloween

One type of witch: Be very careful around Halloween time, the border between the worlds is thin and you never know what you might bring through. Cleanse your space and be very careful not to let any spirits attach themselves to you.

Other type of witch: Alright bitches, grab some cookies cause we're inviting the entire family tonight. Hey Grandma, how's the afterlife?

NASTY WITCH’S BREW PROTECTION POTION

cayenne pepper

coffee (turkish if possible, but any is okay - choose black coffee over any other coffee tho)

salt and/or black salt

black pepper

basil

mint

bay leaf

onions

lemon

iron nails

black tourmaline, amethyst, red jasper (these are the crystals i have for protection and strength, you can arrange a crystal grid of any sort you want, or you don’t even have to have a crystal grid, the idea of this is to add more power to the potion. a simple representation of the elements would do good too. or a spiderman comic book idk whatever floats your boat)

chosen piece of jewelry

a shell

boil all ingredients in a small pot, the smaller the better. when it’s done draw an eye on a piece of paper with an X over the eye - this symbolizes the ‘evil eye’ not being able to harm you. the piece of paper should be as big as the pot because you’re gonna need to put it over the pot and let the sigil activate by the steam from the potion. add the grid around the pot, and after a few moments of letting the steam get to the sigil, add the piece of jewelry right in the middle of the eye and add the shell on top of the jewelry.
