What to put in your Grimoire

There was a really nice ask from a beginner witch about how to start a grimoire. And I thought another article about grimoires couldn’t harm so here you go. Buckle up witches and pagans because this will be a looong post. :3

First of all decice if you want a digital or a physical grimoire. The pro of having a digital grimoire is that it doesn’t take up much space and it has no limitations when writing. You could also just copy and paste from various websites if you feel like it. Still you should be careful, because the information could be easily lost e.g if your PC crashes. Personally I prefer to have an actual book, because you can draw in it, personalize it in any way you like (a scrapbook, a messy notebook, a big leatherbound journal, several small journals bound together etc.) and I guess it just feels amazing to hold and to feel the energy radiate from it. (: Also don’t be afraid to write/draw in your grimoire. If you think that you will ruin a beautiful big book just put it aside for the moment and write in a small notebook. Then carefully plan out the layout of the page and transfer the information to your main grimoire. This way it really shouldn’t be a problem.

Over the time the grimoire becomes a part of yourself and it could be very painful if it gets lost or destroyed while you are still alive. I mean you put tons and tons of time, hard work and very personal information in it. It would be like a part of your soul or brain being ripped out (at least for me). That is also the reason why many witches take it with them to the grave or burn it. (In older times witches (or just wise women/men) burned their grimoires to avoid getting recognized as such). Of course nowadays a lot of witches just give their grimoires to their children or people they consider worthy of their knowledge.

Now what about the content?

I would recommend to start your Grimoire with a *You*page; Introduce yourself, write down your name, your age, write down your beliefs and thoughts (What has inspired you to become a witch?, Are you religious or not ?, What is witchcraft/magic(k) to you? etc.). Write down your wishes and fears and get to know yourself a little better. On the second page you could write down a dedication to your deities/god/gods, to nature or to whomever you like. (The wiccans have the wiccan rede for example.) After that just write one or two of your favorite spells. Maybe write down some basics; How to cast a circle, sabbath information, the purpose of salt, the elements, some herb information. The grimoire will fill up automatically if you record your progress as a witch daily (or whenever you feel like it ). So don’t worry too much. :) Also always leave some blank pages in between, where you can add some additional information later. (If a page really looks that bad you just could glue another page over it. No problem there.) !!!! A tip from me - always ALWAYS do your research , it’s always better to use several different sources (books and/or the internet) and to always read twice! Because in some cases e.g brewing a potion, you could misread the info about a herb or crystal being poisonous and that could be life threatening !!! Please take care.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Alright - Here comes the difficult part. Now, I am a perfectionist and for me everything in my grimoire must be somehow organized.
