Book of Shadows Blessing
Preparation: At the time of the Full Moon, take your new Book of Shadows, a cup of water, a bowl of earth
and some incense (sandalwood, copal or dragon's blood) outside.
Ritual: Under the light of the Full Moon, draw a pentagram on the first page and under this
write the following information: date, time, place, your magical name (and sigil if you have one), the moon's phase and any other info you feel is important.
Light the incense and waft it over your BOS while saying:
Powers of Fire and Air I ask you to bless this book. May it's use be for the good of all.
Rub some water on the book's cover while saying:
Powers of Water I ask you to bless this book. May it's use be for the good of all.
Rub some earth upon the book's cover while saying;
Powers of Earth I ask you to bless this book. May it's use be for the good of all.
Hold your book up to the moon while saying:
Powers of Spirit I ask you to bless this book. May it's use be for the good of all. Blessed Be!
