info_outlineIn this episode, Morgan unpacks the differences between grimoires, books of shadows, and other magickal texts, helping witches determine which type of record-keeping best suits their practice. She explains why documenting your magickal journey is essential and how keeping track of spells, correspondences, and personal experiences can strengthen your craft.
Morgan dives into the purpose of different magickal texts, from the structured reference book that is a grimoire to the deeply personal and evolving book of shadows. She also introduces the concept of tomes, books of mirrors, and specialized journals for dreamwork, divination, and spellcrafting. Throughout the episode, she emphasizes that no two witches will use their magickal texts in the same way and encourages listeners to personalize their record-keeping methods, whether through handwritten journals, digital files, or hybrid approaches.
She also shares a major announcement about the Inked Spirit Coven’s upcoming year-long theme, The Witch’s Grimoire, designed to help witches build and expand their own books of shadows and grimoires.
