How do te start a Book of Shadows?

te don't need to use a quill. Some people write their book of shadows on the computer.
First te can add some basic information to your Bos.
And here is a small tip to begin.
Grab 7 sheets of paper;
on the first te write Deity concepts
on the secondo te write Tools,altars,jewelry
on the third rituals
on the fourth beliefs
on the fifth rules
on the sixth symbols and runes
on the seventh spells

So te can add information on each page and that will form your Book of Shadows. This is just a tip so it's entirely up to te what te do :)

A Book Of Shadows is your personal book on your experiences of your Craft. In it te write how you're feeling before and after doing a spell o a ritual. How you're going to do your alter and whether any changes occur to it (excluding the natural changes as te go through each monthly holiday) and also reminders as to what te use for each main event and why.
I'm completely different from deathRoman13 - my BoS is mine and mine alone, and that's what i put my own spells in o my favourties i have found and copied. My experiences with Tarot o gems o scrying etc.
What you've called the Grimoire (which i call my second) is where i copy all the main rituals for each event in case i forget what to do and need some prompting, all the different meaning for symbols and runes, other people's spells i have tried o like etc.

To be honest no one can actually tell te how to use your book of shadows as it is yours. All we can tell te is how we use ours. It is your choice and responsibilty to find out what is best for te and your craft :)
