You're so kind thank you! I was having a bit of a 'tower moment' just now so to speak... and then I just saw and read your comment and now I am smiling again :) ❤🩹✨
That little pocket watch looking thing is a sovereign case! The idea was you'd use it to put a few coins in there back when a small handful of change could get you all your groceries on an outing, then hang it from a watch chain, a necklace, or a chatelaine belt.
Your book is gorgeous! So glad I discovered your channel. I’m also a chronically ill witch and can totally relate to needing low energy witchcraft. I love how personal your book is to you and not just a bunch of regurgitated beginner info like correspondences lists, etc.
Thank you very much how kind! 😍Also hello fellow chronic ill witch 🫂I'm glad you like my book and yes indeed I tried to not be just full of info I won't need etc, and more like an art/creative journal type book but with info that I wanted randomly through it! 😉
I love owls as well! I always have since I was a kid. Once as a kid a barred owl flew down and landed right in front of me and the silly guy had one wing up and one wing down because he was so surprised that I was there 😂We hear them sometimes at night and it always brings me such joy. 🦉 Thank you for inspiring me to start up my grimoire again! Decided to get a binder similar to yours because its just so much easier to move pages around haha
@@themossyowlhermit aww haha that’s really sweet I can imagine that silly guy with those wings just looking at you like 👀🦉 Same here I can hear owls outside at night and I can’t help but go ‘hey spirit guide’ when I hear a hoot hehe I’m so happy to hear that you’ve been inspired to start up your book again that’s great! Best of luck with it! ❤️
I love everything about your BOS! There is just something so profound about the way you wrote it. The words struck my heart many times. Blessings be to you. 🦉🤎
A beautiful book Alexandra 💜 I had my full M.E. Tower moment 12- 11yrs ago now , so totally appreciate its lesson in life & why you would give it space. Thankyou for sharing 🌞🌻
@@AntoinetteTarot Hey! Thank you so much! An ‘ME tower moment’ indeed 💙 I’m around 10 years now myself. Although I wouldn’t wish this on anyone I’m touched that you enjoyed my book and love that you understand why I would include the tower and my illness in my witchcraft. It’s a huge part of our life and impacts who we are (if we want it or not). Sending hugs through the screen 🫂🥰
Some hopefully helpful advice for removing your butterfly sticker: try using something blunt and flat to gently scrap the sticker and residual adhesive off the leather without damaging it. Something like a cuticle pusher, (think that's what it's called) Also, with calling it your book of shadows or grimoire, bottom line is it's YOUR BOOK call it whatever you like. I call mine a book of shadows even though I don't practice traditional Wicca. Shout out to a fellow Capricorn!
@@huntressmma1822 thanks for the advice that thing is well stuck on there 🤣 and yes indeed I agree if it’s your book you can call it whatever you want! Also yay welcome fellow Capricorn! ♑️ 🥰
Just discovered your lovely channel and you have given me a great idea how I'm going to format my Tarot journal. I also love your Saturn page and your Book of Shadows. Thanks for sharing.
The little locket looks like a sovereign holder or for 1/2 sovereign coins. I tried a ring binder but the holes wore out and I wanted a proper book, that 1st binder is the front and back covers of my current book of shadows, it feels right that way.
@@SandWitch-y6m ohhh that’s interesting bout the coin thing 🤔 might do some more research on that! And yeeeesss good point I had that same issue the holes got torn sometimes cause I wanted more inside than the book allowed haha I ended up having to tape stuff and fix stuff got a bit messy. I think I like the freedom of moving pages but proper books are just as cool!
I love your BOS, it's so beautifully put together, your hand writing is amazing! :) I love feathers and try to collect them but have never seen one like the one you have in your book, may I ask where you got it, I'd love one? 🥰 new subscriber from Scotland 🤗
@@angelbabesuz1612 thank you so much ☺️ ❤️ the feather I got is a pheasant feather, where I live in the countryside they are quite easy to come by in the wild so that’s how I got mine. I believe you can buy them online as well if needed! Hope that helps 🪶 also yay for Scotland! 🏴
I'm almost certain it's the other way arround but now i'm confused XD - had to google it and it's saying Pentagram 'without circle' and Pentacle 'with a circle'! 🤷♀❤ (they need to make all these symbols easier hehe)
Oh yeah true! The one I drew looks a lot like those two, but I think my intention was the eye of Nazar 🧿 aka evil eye! But I think all those eye symbols do the same thing which is a form of ‘protection’ 🤔 ❤️
😲oh wow haha you recognised it, I didn't expect that it just happened to be there hehe, it's a very cool concept for a book, read a tiny bit and like it so far!
I love this! The binder itself was is a planner binder at one point? I'm looking into the binder method for a bos and wanted a removable method. I'm looking for a pretty binder or trailers notebook style. My other question is where did you purchase the binder itself?
@@kirstenbuckhalt5280 Thank you ☺️ umm.. from what I can recall I bought this book from Amazon, and it came exactly as it looks, ring binder with brown paper inside I believe. I took most of the original paper out and swapped them with other types of paper cut to size etc. The tarot pages are on the original brown paper for example. Let me have a look and see if I can find anything similar and I’ll pop a link down for you 🤔

Hey! Your BOS is gorgeous. I gotta say though… that page about The Tower? Exceptionally beautiful. The whole entire thing - Chef’s kiss!

My favorite part was the collage of your spirit guide and hearing the story of you meeting yours. Really beautiful.❤

Nice. I like how its a ring binder but doesnt look as much on the outside like a ring binder
Ty ❤️ yeah I really like that part of it as well, from the outside it really looks like a old tome from a movie rather than a ring binder hehe 🧙♀️
I love everything about your BOS! There is just something so profound about the way you wrote it. The words struck my heart many times. Blessings be to you. 🦉🤎

It's a pentacle if it's just the star if it's in a circle it's a pentagram just to let you know❤

@@starsweetpea111 Yes, it’s pentacle with the circle.
@@Sovereign.Alignment Thank you for the confirmation haha 👍
There's the eye of Ra and the eye of Horus I don't know what they are used for
Oh yeah true! The one I drew looks a lot like those two, but I think my intention was the eye of Nazar 🧿 aka evil eye! But I think all those eye symbols do the same thing which is a form of ‘protection’ 🤔 ❤️
