Real Question How Many Years Of Calling Myself A Baby Witch Does It Take For Me To Acknowledge I Might

Real question how many years of calling myself a baby witch does it take for me to acknowledge I might know a thing or two?

New Year, New Grimoire

With the year coming to a close, now is as good a time as any to start a new grimoire or book of shadows. Maybe it’s your first, maybe it’s your 10th. But there’s just something nice about starting a new magical journal around New Years.

This post is going to be similar to my “Great Big Wichy Video Starter Kit For Beginners” in that it is essentially a YouTube playlist, a curated list of the videos that helped me the most.

This is not a sponsored post, these videos are not mine, and I have no connection or affiliation with the creators of these videos. If you find contrasting opinions in these videos, don’t stress, just decide which you like better and keep that one with you. Also, if you change your mind later, that’s okay too! This is part of growing.

First Things First, You’ll Need A Book

You can use anything from journals, to binders, to planners, to sketchbooks, but if you can’t seem to find the perfect one in any stores, you can make one yourself!

You might also want something more specific, like a dream journal, or a bullet journal for weekly and monthly intention setting. You can be as specific or as general as you want!

The First Page Is The Hardest

How do you begin? An “About Me” page with your natal or solar chart? Maybe your personal rules you’ve set for yourself?
