Basically, it contains all your magical research. It also contains lists of correspondences and magical properties of herbs, gemstones, food, colors, etc. It holds information about rituals, spells, potions, and how to prepare magical tools. Will not only help you progress as a witch by seeing your power grow,īut will also allow you to see what works and what does not work for you.Ī Grimoire is like a BOS, but not as personal. It's always a good idea to keep records of your magical workings. If the witch does not also keep a Grimoire, it can also include spells and other magical information needed to perform magic. It includes records of all magical workings, dreams and their meanings, rituals, etc. A BOS is a witch's personal book of magic a diary of magic if you will. Most witches keep a BOS, but not a Grimoire.
In passing conversation the other day, I was asked what the difference between a Grimoire and a Book of Shadows (BOS) is.
