i do not have a book of shadows and i realy wount one but i cant get one so please can u help.

When you first get started in the Craft, it isn’t all that important to have your own Book of Shadows, but you can develop one as you study.

To save money, many of the Wiccans and pagans I know keep their spells in a binder or even a spiral notebook. Most of them have found a blank book, like a journal, from the local bookstore and use that.

The book itself, that you use for your book of shadows, isn’t important. In fact, some of the very pretty hand bound books with all natural papers are simply impractical. This book will become your book of knowledge, so you need something sturdy and soemthing you don’t mind exposing to the elements. After all, most of practice outside at least some of the time.

Once you find a book that you are comfortable with, talk to your coven about what types of protective magicks you will need to place on it. Normally, a person would place fairly simple protections on their book of shadows to keep out people who would try to use it for evil, but that, like most things, varies person to person and coven to coven.

The other good thing about using a blank journal for your book of shadows is that someone who doesn’t know what they are looking for won’t be able to find it easily. this comes in handy with friends who don’t know or understand about your religion and snooopy visitors.
