Grimoire Content and Logistics (Part 2 of 3, YouTube Pagan Challenge 2017)

[@NobodyWhatsoever]

"I guess, in a way, it's my repentance. I spent the first half of my life running away from who I am. Now I am spending the latter half embracing that identity, and more than that, honoring that." I think this is quite the profound statement, and probably fits more lives than people will ever realize.

[@DanyTaichi]

You definitely have one of the most beautiful and complex Grimoires/BoS that I have ever seen. Thanks for each video! You are inspirational!!

[@BenebellWen]

Thank you!

[@kennydee8296]

Your work deserves to be preserved in the second Library Of Alexandria, such a great example of just what is possible.

[@mysticforge369]

completely in love with your current working grimoire so much so that after your first video is got your new book. with the last video of it, the flip through it was really hard not to pause it on every page and read it.

[@MrKitharo]

As always: I love to see your visually impressive books an the older, more simple ones. Your visual and magical transformation is evident and I love these videos!

[@user-gl1lr2qn6y]

Thank you for being so free and vulnerable to show us your grimoire, Benebell. You’re cool. And your grimoire looks badass 😎

[@DanniEsotericMoment]

I love how you touch on the dedication and persistence that is integral to your work in your Grimoire. So often youtube videos on BOS/Grimoires focus on the pretty are (which of course yours has plenty of!) and forget to mention the deeper practice that goes into creating that magical item. It wonderful you help bring that balance to the conversation on magical books here on youtube!

Lady!!! Just after watching only TWO (2) of your KZbin videos; I can honestly feel your VERY HIGH-Vibrational Frequency... As your Creative & Positive Energy literally radiates through the screen I'm watching from & through the speakers I hear your voice from! ⭐Thing is... Not only do you have AUSPICIOUS Talent, Patience & obviously a real Passion for the Spiritual Path you're walking... But as an Empath... Its almost as if you were sitting right here in the room with me... Inspiring me... Empowering me... Telling me~I REALLY CAN make something if this HIGH CALIBUR!!! ~As strange as this may be, I need you to know that your ancestors (Especially those who haven't "been gone" all that long) Are SO CRAZY-PROUD OF YOU!!! ~AND~ The Legacy you continue to uphold, respect & add to... With the utmost Respect & in The highest regard! ~May you experiance GREAT ABUNDANCE in every area of your life as you continue to encourage, serve, empower & bless others! (You SO deserve it ALL!) ~Blessed Be~

Hi Benebell, I've been waiting patiently for this video. Quite informative. BTW, what a lovely Bagua (Eight Trigram) Mirror.

[@Mang0Tango]

Thanks for talking so candidly about the process of making your pages - I was curious about how you organized your drawings and kept from running out of space if you make the boxes before you write the text! Knowing that we're 'allowed' to sketch beforehand and that we don't go from 0 to adult-coloring-book-level intricate drawings is really reassuring.

[@BenebellWen]

lol, I finish a lot of decorative frames and borders before I even know what will go on that page. Then when I've got a completed idea for one page of content, I'll see if it fits on any of the pre-existing bordered pages and work from there or, if not, then create a new one. Yeah, I will plan out everything, sketches and text inclusive, on scrap paper before attempting anything in the Actual Book. =D

[@simont.b.2660]

Of great inspiration. Thank you. (And you are not only humble but you also ARE talented).

[@ultraclaveshermetium5709]

I love your book activation ritual diagram at the start!

[@TSchrader90]

I absolutely love your book. I love the way each page and the detail in each page. I have been trying to work on mine but am having a hard time with the detail I want to put in it because I have a smaller sketchbook.

[@noahj.9]

Tara Schrader You can always utilize fold-outs, envelopes, and pockets :)

[@TSchrader90]

I am trying that as well. I actually put a couple pockets in for the holidays and different rituals you can do for each.

[@noahj.9]

That's awesome! :D

[@TSchrader90]

yeah I am trying to make it more personal to me with some of my artwork and combining different things

[@BenebellWen]

That's awesome and I'm totally cheering you on in all your book endeavors!

[@courtneylee2691]

thank you so much for sharing! your book and process are always inspiring. (:

[@sebastian122]

This was a delight. Thank you for sharing.

[@CynnaAel]

My past grimoires have been more calligraphy than decorative and informative. I began slowly shifting a few years back, but still it’s a slow going yet loving process.

[@leslybeauvais]

Hey, thank you for this video. Its very inspiring to see your Grimoire. And thanks for showing your old ones as well, it feels good to see and hear when you said that it takes time. Reminding us all that is a process.

[@thomasackerman3995]

Love it..you are making art and living it at the same time. Sweet.

[@MrsBeeHaven]

Outstanding! Simply gorgeous , A wonderful stunning heirloom work

[@shadowdwella9058]

ill say this....even though you almost broke your book, you actually breathed your biggest brewth of life into it by managing to keep it alive :-)

[@lisalacy688]

I would also like to know what journal you are using. Many fine ones don’t lay flat like your and one that does has not very many pages.

[@janetcochran6679]

Beautiful Grimoire !

[@moriblackknight4030]

I purchased the Tao of craft I shall look into this as well.

[@mariaprestonbookofshadows3289]

[@BenebellWen]

Hi Maria! Thank you! I've already posted Video 3. It's up on my channel! :-D

[@claudialovemair9455]

Your drawing is beautiful!

[@samm9496]

Hi Benebell, Great presentation. In your video, you did touch on your previous earlier books to which you wrote of your thoughts and researchers into metaphysical practices. Thermodynamics?... hehehe... I strongly believe you were a proud graduate of an engineering student. 😁... BTW... I bought and read your "The Tao of Craft". Great book. ... Sam...😁

[@DetailHunter]

I love all what you are doing! ❤❤❤

[@cetvies-author-writer]

did you do a pdf of it? really appealing shape.

[@TheCarrifaery]

HOLY COW i have never seen anything quite so lovely!

[@roevswade]

Your book is beautiful

[@davegarciaofficial]

I looked up Tulpa and am a little confused as to exactly what they are (and how they can reside in the figurine).

[@crystal_cave.9202]

Hi the red hexagon thing please can u advise I have commented earlier for info . Many thanks

[@elementalbirdmelusina6686]

Stunning Book!

[@BeyondtheRecord]

HOLY SHEEP! THAT'S BEYOND INCREDIBLE!

[@thehighpriestess8431]

I just order your book!

[@strangecatbarber]

Do you hand make your sigil envelopes? @3:27

[@davegarciaofficial]

Is there a specific reason why you choose primarily black and white vs more color?

[@crystal_cave.9202]

@1.36 you have a red hexagon thing what is this as my partner got one as he liked it and was wondering what it's for?

[@melanierouge588]

It’s a cowlick page 😂 I use graphite paper to trace those really hard images or fancy font

[@CheezyLove1126]

You have a new subscriber! I love the spirit and intention behind your action of creating this. I'm also in the process of writing my own to commemorate my ancestors and your video has greatly inspired me because I was having such hard time figuring out the layout for my own. But I LOVE how yours is turning out and thank you so much for sharing. When do you think you'll be uploading Part 3?

[@portlandtarot1446]

You are so fucking talented. And? And smart.

[@crazypikachucrcr7529]

I left out some of the methods of bringing to life a hand puppet a ventriloquist doll. One was a drop of blood , night time (full Moon).
