My Private Spell

Some people believe that you should never show your spellbook (BOS...books of spells) to anyone, NEVER!!! I personally never follow anyone's beliefs but my own. I feel that it is perfectly fine to expose what you are comfortable with. Above is a pic of my first spellbook. It has been closed for about 6 years now. I am opening it for the first time in a long time to show you a bit of it. As you can see it was very busy at one time. Look at how thick it is.



I keep it bound with a black satin ribbon. It has a gold moon and star book mark.


It is black embossed leather. Some people are put off by pentagrams but if you look closer you will realize they are earth symbols. Each point symbolizes an element. Fire, wind, sun, water and earth.


Knowledgeable pages


You can decorate your spellbook however you wish.


I saved cards from other witches all over the world that I received throughout the years.


Here is a pumpkin I embossed and painted and a Happy Samhain card I received.

Another artistic card


This is inside the back cover. This is the first time anyone has ever seen the inside of my BOS. I hope you enjoyed it.
