Until this website is
finished, many of the links
will direct you back to
our eBay Store.

They are bound solidly - they are not a loose leaf book in which you can add or remove pages.  We have put together a page of photos to show the binding and internal aspect of the Books.  This page can be viewed here.  Just close the new window that will open on your browser to return to this page.

Each Book has a wonderfully designed Willow peg closure, frequently tipped with a Crystal Point, in a colour and design to match the Book. 

Reverse of some of the Books.

The price quoted is the full amount for the purchase, but you are required to make a 50% deposit at the point of sale, that secures your order and the Book will then be handcrafted to your specifications by the artist and ready for you in approximately 3-4 weeks.  An email will be sent to you a week before delivery is due, so that you can then pay the remaining balance in time to have your book shipped as soon as your payment clears.   

The Books are also available from our Store, either at Auction or occasionally as a *Buy it Now* item, depending upon our stock - or else an order may be placed for the Book of your choice.  

We have designed several pages within our Store to show the many and varied Books of Shadows that are available for you to order.

WITH THESE EIGHT WORDS 
THE WICCAN REDE FULFIL:
"AN IT HARM NONE,
DO WHAT YE WILL."

**Each Book of Shadows from the Collection is individually handcrafted and so they are all just a tiny bit different, even though the basic design is the same.  It depends upon the shapes cut into the leather and the decorations attached, which makes each one completely individual.  The photos in this listing are of  books of the design nominated, although they may have slightly different shapes in the leather.  It is too time consuming to take photos and do new listings for each individual book, so we just have one listing for each design in the Collection.  Please email us if you have any queries or requests.**

Occasionally, we will offer a selection of some of the designs from our Collection as a SUPER SPECIAL

.... but BE QUICK
as these offers will ONLY LAST FOR 3 DAYS!!

• In Wicca, a book known as the Book of Shadows is used to record rituals and serves in some instances as a diary for the coven or solitary practitioner. The first Book of Shadows was written by Gerald Gardner, although there is still much scandal concerning who actually wrote it. Gardner supposedly received the Book of Shadows in fragmentary form during his initiation in 1939. Before Gardner, there is no known record of a Book of Shadows. 
  
  The name, Book of Shadows, is used to refer to the so called witch hunt days and the need for secrecy of the religion, and thus an allusion is made to practicing within the shadows.
  
  
• The term Grimoire, derived from the word grammar, means essentially a book of learning and the name seems to make sense as a universal term for this book. The name Grimoire is not the actual name which is used within any tradition. This name is used solely because the real name of the book is secret, and so it serves as a point of reference for the same item between traditions. The things which are written within the book are religious rituals, amendments to those rituals, and other things which have to do with the religion. Things related to magick are written in a different book. It does not serve as a diary.
  
  
• Most of the time, this book is hand written by the individual. In some families, this book is copied from what is referred to as a Great Book. Each family may have their own name for such a book and still other families retain no book or written manuscript and are entirely dependant upon an oral tradition.
  
  
• In most traditions, the Grimoire is composed by the individual, and the rituals contained therein are sometimes even written in runes (i.e. secret letters) or pictures so as not to be understood by someone else. The rituals themselves are based on traditions and lore, but also contain individual flourishes as well.
