I chose Creating a Book of Shadows because this is one of the first classes that I want to take once I finish the orientation series. Which is why I chose to write about this class in particular. I have tried a few times to create my own, but I have never gotten very far in doing so. Because of this I am hoping that with a little structure and support I will actually be able to finish this time. My expectations from this class are not very difficult. I expect to have the beginnings of my Books of Shadows by the time the class is done. I know that the Book of Shadows is a growing thing that is never really complete which is why I say I will have the beginnings of my Book of Shadows. I am looking forward to this class though because this is something I have wanted to start for a very long time. I know that this class is required for some other classes, but when I first saw this class I knew this was one I was going to take. I have been very impatient to get to this class and I think I am still a bit impatient to get to this class, but I know that it will happen pretty soon so for that I am grateful.

When you are grounding, you are usually pushing excess energy into the Earth with allows you to relax. Centering in making sure that the energy within is flowing the way it should be. The use of visualization in centering and grounding allows you to see where the energy is and where you want it to go. In this manner one can see what is happening with the energy within him or herself to use it more effectively.
Another way to ground and…

Starting your Book of Shadows

Image
So, I've been working on something and thought I would give an update on it. I have wanted to start my BOS for a long time and now I finally have. The very first page will be my blessing for the book. Then after that I added Magical Rules I will follow, Code of Conduct, and Spiritual goals. They look like this:




I will have an index at the back to give page numbers for everything so I can find things quickly.
