grimoire organization 2022
Greetings, everyone! This is how I've organized my grimoire for 2022. I use Obsidian to write it digitally.
This is just my personal preference for organization, so no worries if yours looks different! There are as many ways to organize a grimoire as there are witches and wizards in the world.
Tell me what you think! What parts do you like? What do you think I should add? Anything I'm missing or suggestions to make it better? Feel free to comment how you organize your grimoire below!
Farewell, and good tidings!

Some books that I have read and would suggest to a beginner or for anyone to read! They are very good in my opinion, I do suggest you read Wicca by Harmony Nice as a first option, she goes into a lot of detail about her path but also paths in general and how everyone is different but also is the same thing and how no one person is better then the rest, it’s a great read. 10/10 recommend!

I've thought about it, and I'm going to move all my witchy information from my old composition book to this 3 ring binder.
My organization in the composition book was really all over the place, and it was getting messy (even though I still like how portable it was)
This time, I'll have full reign over the organization and I can now move pages to wherever I please.
Besides, I needed the upgrade.

What do you think of Joyofsatan.org? They claim to follow the Sumerian God Enki-Satan, they’re pro-choice, they follow gay Pagan Gods and they’re the largest Satanist group in the world
Hm...either someone wants advice to see whether they wanna be a satanist or not, or its their leader wanting some criticism.
Well either way, I never opened this website before. I m word vomiting out all my first impressions on the website. I ll admit the only satanic thing i read was anton levays work before stopping because holy fuck that was alot to take in. But either way, lets get started.
Website design is a 3/10. The blue, red, and the black background, with the occasional white for links is making my artist side freak out. Why isn t there a satanic web designer come on!
I read through the read text essay next to the links, on one hand i feel like i m on 4chan with the"Our Past is Being Systematically Destroyed To Keep the LIE of Christianity Going. Expose 5he Conspiracy!! Click Here!!" Feels i m bout to get a virus. However the other half of me is agreeing with most of this.
I read the making a commitment to satan part and i never read anything more cliche in my life. SIGN YOUR NAME IN BLOOD TO ME MORTAL!!!! Like what the fuck guys? I get it, but at the same time its a tiny bit extreme? Like please don t lay awake at night questioning why they hate you when you were initiated through stuff like this.
Thankfully, they DO mention your legal rights and list them all out, and they even mention what to do if you re in custody, things to do with your job, dealing with harassment, EO officiers, even stuff for kids and teens in public schools (this is specific towards the USA though). This doesn t just go for satanism, it goes for all aspects of witchcraft and should be treated as such!
Despite how I praise the website, and how you said they re pro choice, I doubt that. I also found nothing on the main page about the gods your talking about, since only demons were mentioned from what I read. Also, I found an blacklist made from another user (I fact checked it, they re accurate) thats going to be linked in the comments. I found an entry about every main satanic group, heres what it had to say about the joy of satan community:
Tumblr media
I found none of this on the website, however why would you? Plus, I just read so many fucked up stories on the r/satanism subreddit. Maxine (someone related to the joy of satan organization) has also repeatedly stated nazi like bullshit. Their sister site 666blacksun shows their true colors. While joy of satan is their "professional" side, 666blacksun is who they truely are, conspiracy theorists and nazis.
So, in conclusion, stay away from this organization. And if you still decide to be a part of it, stay away from me. My old school was in a jewish town, my best friends were muslim. I already spoke to every color under the sun when I was only 10. They were the nicest people I ever met, and I won t tolerate any uneccessary hate towards them, or ANY minority. You ve been warned.
Feel free to add whatever you d like in the reblogs.

How to Maintain Your Magic Accessories: an overview for novice mages
Many spellcasters-to-be imagine how exciting life will be once they've acquired some skills and a wand, but very few picture the everyday upkeep of said wand. That's why we at the Mage Guidance Department created this guide: to spread awareness so that prospective mages can know what to expect when choosing a life of magic. It's not all fun and mind games—it's a commitment to care!
(This is my piece for Dottolus' Dotnomicon: Grimoire of Wonders, a magic book zine organized by @dotzines. Below the cut are the static versions. It was fun to play with the idea of a book with magically shifting content!)

✨ Creating Your Grimoire ✨
Tumblr media
In the realm of witchcraft and the arcane arts, a grimoire is a sacred vessel—a repository for your magical knowledge, spells, and experiences. To create your very own grimoire is to embark on a magical journey, a testament to your personal growth and a reflection of your unique spiritual path. With each page, you breathe life into a magical world that is uniquely yours. 🌙📜🔮
So, let us delve into the mystic arts and learn how to craft your very own grimoire, a treasured companion on your magical journey:
✨ 1. Choose Your Tools: Begin by selecting a journal or a notebook that resonates with you. It could be leather-bound, handcrafted, or a simple, beautifully designed book. Let your intuition guide you.
✨ 2. Dedicate Your Grimoire: Before you start filling its pages, dedicate your grimoire to your magical practice. Create a ceremony or ritual that signifies its importance in your spiritual journey.
✨ 3. Organize Your Content: Decide on the sections or categories for your grimoire. Common sections include spells, herbs, crystals, divination, moon phases, and personal reflections. Organizing your content will make it easier to reference.
✨ 4. Decorate with Intention: Use art, symbols, and colors that hold significance in your practice. Incorporate symbols, runes, and illustrations that resonate with your magical path. Each stroke of your pen can carry intention.
✨ 5. Record Your Spells and Rituals: Document your spells and rituals with care. Include ingredients, steps, and the outcomes. Personalize them to make them your own and infuse them with your energy.
✨ 6. Herbal and Crystal Wisdom: Devote sections to the properties and uses of herbs and crystals. Describe their magical associations and how to work with them in your spells and rituals.
✨ 7. Lunar and Planetary Magic: Dedicate pages to the phases of the moon and the influence of planetary energies. Include your observations and experiences with these celestial guides.
✨ 8. Divination and Tarot: Share your insights about divination methods like tarot, runes, or scrying. Document your readings and interpretations.
✨ 9. Dream and Meditation Journal: Dedicate a portion to dream and meditation experiences. Record your visions, insights, and messages received during your spiritual journeys.
✨ 10. Personal Reflections: Your grimoire is not just a book of facts but a record of your spiritual evolution. Write about your experiences, your magical progress, and how your practice has shaped you.
✨ 11. Protection and Secrecy: Consider creating a page or section dedicated to protective spells or enchantments to safeguard the contents of your grimoire.
✨ 12. Regularly Update: Your grimoire is a living, evolving document. As you learn, grow, and experience, continue to add to its pages and update your knowledge.
🌟🔮🌟
As you craft your grimoire, remember that it is a reflection of your unique connection to the magical world. With each entry, you breathe life into your practice, making it a powerful, personalized tool for your mystical journey. May your grimoire be a testament to your magical evolution, a record of your discoveries, and a key to the secrets of the universe.
📜🔮✨ Blessed be, as you embark on this enchanting journey of grimoire creation. 📜🔮✨

February week 1
Energy Work
This next few weeks we are going to be dealing with rather a lot of definitions and new pages. These definitions can either all go on one page so that you have a sort of dictionary of your own within your grimoire, or you can leave the pages separate and have each definition on each separate page.
Lab notebook/ new page- Definition - what is Energy Work? How do we incorporate it into our craft? How does it work?
New page - Visualization- what is visualization? What does it actually mean and how does it work? What is its purpose and how do we do it? How do we practice getting better at it?How does it work and help us within the context of our craft?
New page- Energy Manipulation -start with the basics and work your way deeper into it. How does one sense energies? See them? Feel them? How does one begin to manipulate them? What methods are used?
Monday
Grounding - define grounding within the context of energy work. What is it? How do you do it? What forms are there? What is the purpose of grounding? How does it help us in our craft? What herbs, gems and tools are associated with grounding?
Charging - define charging within the context of energy work. What is it? How do you do it? What forms are there? What is the purpose of it? How does it help us in our craft? What herbs, gems and tools are associated with charging?
Centering - define centering within the context of energy work. What is it? How do you do it? What forms are there? What is the purpose of it? How does it help us in our craft? What herbs, gems and tools are associated with it?
Research- pick another herb off your list! Find out as much information as you can. Mundane and magical, historical too!
Tuesday
Sending, receiving - is it possible to send and receive energy? How is this done? What purposes does this serve? How do we use it in the context of our craft? What associations does it have?
Raising - Define raising energy. How does one raise energy? What is the purpose of raising energy? How do you perform it?
Channeling - Define it. What is energy channeling? How does one do it? What is the purpose? How does it work and help us in the context of our craft? What are some associations for channeling?
Wednesday
Astral work - Define astral work. What is it? How is it done? What are various methods? What is the purpose? What are some things associated with it? What is its history?
Energy fields - Define it. What are energy fields? How do you sense them? Can you manipulate them? How do you sustain them? What sustains them? What do we do with them?
Research - pick another gem or other magical item/ component/ ingredient and research as much as you can about it!
Thursday
Replenishing - How does one replenish their energy? What are the methods you use? When and or how often do you do it?
Sensing - how does one sense another person’s or another source of energy? Are there different methods? Are there tools that can help? What all things can you sense energy in?
Friday
Meditation - what is meditation? There are various philosophies and techniques. If you prescribe to one, which is it? How do you accomplish it? What is the purpose of your meditation or meditation in general? Are there tools that help you meditate?
Auras - what are auras? Define them. What do they look and feel like? How do you sense them? Can you manipulate them?
Dream Work - What is dream work? Lucid dreaming isn’t the only way to work with dreams. What methods of working with dreams are there? Do you journal your dreams? What are dreams, to you?
Phew!!
We made it. That was a lot of definitions this week! The next couple weeks will have a lot of definitions! Along with the normal prompts. Again all of this is just meant to inspire research and creative thinking as well as actually inspire creative decoration ideas and organization for our grimoires! Don’t feel obligated to do it all week by week. The challenge will stay up after the year is over so we can all look back and utilize it!

Thanks for showing me your spell books and grimoires. Your arcane library is so cute. I love the way that you’ve organized your guides on runic theory alongside your treatises on the applications of sigilcraft. Like those are totally the same thing, right? Lol. Very cute.

Lowkey really don’t like the people in the witchcraft community who see their practice as an aesthetic and nothing more. Like, witchcraft, paganism, and occultism in general definitely do have very aesthetic qualities to them, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with enjoying those aspects. However, you should be focusing on the craft and the beliefs more than you focus on the looks.
You don’t need to have an organized or pretty looking book of shadows or grimoire
You don’t need to have all your herbs in labels glass jars
You don’t need to have cool looking crystals
You don’t need to have a “nice” looking alter
You don’t need to have a Pinterest board dedicated to the aesthetic of witchcraft
You don’t need to have photos of trees with quotes from books that you may or may not have actually read next to them
There’s nothing wrong with enjoying these things, I cannot stress this enough. You can do all these things, and there’s nothing wrong with it. But you don’t NEED to in order to practice your craft. So don’t worry about having things look nice if it stresses you out. If you are only, or mostly, practicing paganism for the aesthetic, then you do not have your priorities straight.

Hex Positive, Ep. 038 - Creating Your Personal Grimoire
Since magic and writing first existed together, there have been books of magic. Grimoires and other mystical tomes dot the historical record, from illuminated manuscripts to beloved props of modern pop culture. For the modern witch, a grimoire is as much a personal reference guide as it is a self-written textbook of the craft. This month, we’ll discuss how to build your own grimoire, with tips for staying organized, suggested topics, and a journaling exercise to get you started!
