Handmade Book of Shadows Update Part 1

[@anythmeyax]

I miss your videos. I hope you are doing well, wherever you are in life. ❤

[@nowitssovivid1273]

It's such a privilege to see this personal assemblage of magickal things! I also love how you just FILL a page... That's one of the yummiest tomes I've ever seen.

[@MuneLitePath]

"There is no such thing as death, life is only a dream And we are the imagination of our cells" is in my favorite songs ever

[@slideshowgurl]

I would love to see a tutorial on how you made this gorgeous book! It's fabulous!

[@johnsabo33]

I just started my book of shadows and I have honestly watched your video 5 times. VERY cool stuff in your book!! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing and please continue to share!! :)

[@annoulamaraki5315]

I'm amazed of how well made is this book, so detailed and the best thing in it is how symmetrical are the stars and all the symbols 👍🏼💯

[@bookishb]

oh my god I could listen to you talk all day!!! its so calming and comforting!!!

[@frnkmabon]

that mead prayer is so beautiful like seriously so beautiful

[@lilpinkbear]

Holy flying fuckballs! That is a LOT of work you have put into your book. Amazing! Elle, damn it is SO good to see you again, I have missed you immensely. I am so sorry to hear about your bereavements and computer issues, that will get even the peppiest of cheerleaders down. I hope things are looking better for you and yours now. Where are those paper majors from at the front of your book? They're gorgeous. I love that sign off that Bill Hick's used to do, what a dude. I can't get over you writing/reading runes, so cool.

[@sacredseed1295]

Kelly Bear omg I missed u guys too!! I've totally been playing catch up on your channel recently- you've been busy lady , luv it all so much! and actually I think having this bos project to work on really helped me out thru all the crazy "life stuff," it's so good to have a creative outlet, I know u know that with all the cool stuff u get up to... *cough* washi tape projects hehe. and omg bill hicks was a god lol. xoxo xoxo

[@tamipie]

I know right?? the rune writing is amaz-balls! my brain is exploding!

[@nationstate]

I am blown away by how absolutely beautiful of a book that is

[@cordieberke7195]

I LOVE your videos! You're one of the few Pagan KZbinrs I watch who isn't Wiccan in some way. I'm a Wiccan and not really into the Norse mythos or alchemy, but watching you has peeked my interest in the subjects. I just felt the urge to say thanks, so thank you!

[@Lourdes.Kassandra.]

This is the most interesting BOS that I have ever seen 😍💜

[@joker6790]

100 years from now scientists will look at this book confused

[@jesuscrust69]

What do you mean?

[@emilyconor8963]

jajajajajajaa

[@herbalannie7707]

Yes . At how elementary we are today.

[@hospitalcakewalk]

unless she hasn't used archival paper.... because regular printer paper like has doesn't last long unless you make it archival... like doesnt last 50 years long...

[@lornarosemorrison]

True, but as long as it makes them think…. Voynich Manuscript. When I saw that I knew exactly what it was. ❤❤❤❤

[@ImHavinaHoot]

Elle! What a pleasure seeing a video from you in my feed this morning! What a beautiful BOS, you infused so much creativity and juicy bits of wisdom into your Book. Fabulous! XO ♡♡♡

[@Litcott]

I was literally just thinking about you the other day and wondering whether you were still uploading and if I was just missing it. Glad you're back! Your videos are always awesome. This flip through is GLORIOUS. Your book is gorgeous.

[@senpuuryu]

Wow, this is amazing. First of all, the detailed illustration magnifies your BoS! It's like looking at a master mage's personal book, or an elder sage's personal takes and travels! I am having the same blank bible type of A4 pages being made by my friend and I am excited to write on my book of shadows! The problem lies on my knowledge in drawing, however. I am not that skilled to draw the things I like, especially on the detailed seals.

[@bobbys6945]

The timbre in your voice is so elegant! If I may, you sound a lot like Demi Moore! Cheers!

[@JKMa11]

Bobby J S-Abilo YES!!! Was trying to place the voice!

[@qre315]

Oh my god I missed your videos so much! I'm constantly listening to them while working on my witchy projects. Your book is so beautiful!

[@Obsidian_Iris_]

Absolutely stunning! Thank you for the privilege of taking a peak at your grimoire and through it, your incredible breadth of and variety of knowledge and wisdom. It is particularly helpful for those of us that while Pagan, embrace (or in many of our cases, are embraced by) a different pantheon and culture. I especially loved hearing you recite the prayers and poems. It allowed me to hear and understand more than I would have by simply reading them myself. While I would have understood the words and concepts, I wouldn’t have felt them as iI did while you were reading them. It would be great to hear you recite more of them in their collective entirety. My patron gods are of the Hellenic pantheon. While I’m lucky there is so much written history and myths of these gods, I have to admit I’m not greatly enamored of the traditional hymns. I have written my own while incorporating the traditional elements I feel are meant to be in them.

[@ralextv]

I missed you sooo much, i almost screamed when saw the notification haha, beautiful pages and content. I love uu and your videos haha

[@sacredseed1295]

Rene Alejandro Tinoco Vega haha awww thank u so very much!!

[@TheEverseer]

Hey Elle! Oh firstly my condolences to you and your family. Passings are never easy. All my blessings for you all during this difficult period of transition. Glad see your new videos are up today, it seems it's been a battle with those tech issues too! Slowly trying to get through today's new vids, but my net connection's bad atm, but good to see you busy again in KZbin! Told you we all missed you!!! Look at all the love in all the comments 👍Cheers and try to keep smiling :)

[@wrencalder318]

This book is gorgeous and I love the way you talk about it

[@tarotmap]

So good to see you Elle!!! I hope your "misery" is gone now and you'll be shining your awesomeness on us more regularly again! Missed your videos very much! Amazing book of shadows! Thank you for sharing

[@michelleyoo8088]

Absolutely stunning, you have poured your soul into this book!

[@tamipie]

Elle's back! Elle's front! Elle's brain!! Elle's book! (dances a dance of happiness, gratitude and silliness) so psycked. I'm totally a Tool lover....at ear damaging levels.

[@verontage8421]

Welcome back!! It’s so good to see you 😊 I love what you’ve done with your book! Tool helped me through some rough times, and Lateralus helped me awaken spiritually, Im sorry for your losses and I’m glad you’re back ❤️

[@Kat-n-Ollie]

“As above so below”comes from the hermetic principles so that’s really awesome. I wish more groups old wisdom in their lyrics. 😊

[@doryralston8325]

So glad your back. You were missed. Awesome job on the BOS, so cool

[@iammynewbeginning]

So happy to see you back, I enjoy you're video....and discover so many decks. Hope everything is fine for you.

[@Ladihawke]

very beautiful, your handwriting is beautiful, and so straight, mine never looks that great :) looking forward to watching your other videos, as I'm learning and soaking up everything I find, thank you.

[@slydiva]

its been a while elle. i really missed your videos. you are one of the people that I really look up to specially when it comes to tarot studies. I know you have your own deck that you yourself conceptualised but I believe that you'll be able to create an amazing, original deck and book. I'll look forward to more of your videos.

[@missmeg4199]

You are back! I just discovered you a month or so ago. When I realized you didn't post anything in a while I was hoping you were doing alright. Thank you so much for sharing your book with us.

[@Nycsakura71]

Love it! I am glad to understand what you are saying since I am deaf and rely on subtitles. Beautiful book of shadow. Thank you for sharing and educate us. Blessed be.

[@thefortunetellerssociety3835]

[@calibirdlady6723]

Don't practice witch craft still just trying to read the tarot and Lenormand card. Must admit that I am loving your book and can't begin to imagine the hours of work. Love it, now I must go watch part 2.

[@MrParkerman6]

One does not simply PRACTICE Witchcraft 👌

[@maggardyful]

So glad to see you again! B.O.S. is beautiful.

[@themoonchariot]

I had been wondering where you were... Love your videos, your pretty face, and your gorgeous feathered child. Glad to have you back. Hugs 🤗

[@aboz8649]

Please tell us about your phi tattoo!!!! I love it so much! I want to know moree. Also I’m so glad to see you here again. Missed ya!

[@JessicaIsSoPoor]

I’m so glad you’re back! And with such a great video! I just wanted to suggest that if you moved that beautiful stationery to a page on the right side, you would have a better time having pages lay flat. That’s if you could even move it and, of course, wanted to.

[@psychedianic]

Glad to see you back!!!! Edited to say extra thumbs up on the Tool lyrics.

[@irishcladdagh3]

hello gorgeous!!! I was just watching your Norse Paganism video....had a low Elle level going on and needed a quick fix....so glad you and your family are well, sorry for your loss but you are a Witch you witch through it....now to sit and watch and hear you...LOVING THIS VIDEO BTW....blessed Imbolc to you and your wife )O(

[@Shadz.L.A]

I just adore your energy!!

[@kirstenviola7768]

Wonderful! Love it! Can you please tell me which handwriting / fonts style in is per example on the side Multi-Dimensional Meditation? Thank you! Kirsten Viola from Germany 💖

[@ihazmunchies5203]

i didn't even think of pocket areas. And here I am collecting candlewick press books (Lots of hidden pockets and flaps). Thanks for the idea xD

[@thesoundtarot3609]

I miss you. I learned soooo much . Wishing you much love and happiness 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@amina2259]

Is this real life??!!! Return of the Jediii, has my favorite esoteric KZbinr really returned, so glad to have you back, I remember starting with your mega altar video a few months back and then it went like wildfire with the rest of your videos

[@margharetify]

wow... so gorgeous! I feel so inspired to work on mine now

[@Periwinkle9876]

Your book is incredible and so are you!!! How is Artie? Blessings Always...

[@HauntedCadaver]

My soul quivered when you read I Will Drink thy Mead

[@Marizeye]

OMG the tarot Encyclopaedia is baaaaaack!!! I hope you're back? Be back! We need you!!!!! I'm not a witch & don't use BOS but enjoying this anyway :-D :-D :-D

[@vintageadventureswithrobert]

I myself have made several books by hand. The first book I made was first Corinthians and first Romans then Genesis, Job, Beowulf, Hiawatha The four Gospels. Those were copied out by hand with calligraphy pens and the only hand made printed book I have made was the Heimskringla by Snorri Sturlson. Right now my latest project is copying out the Odyssey by Homer. And I have been working on that book for four years now. The covers on my books were made out of yellow birch and the designs I chose were burned into the covers. My next book is going to be a book of hours and then I want to do Beowulf again. You did a very nice job of copying your book and it came out well. Good luck on future projects.

[@insectreflection623]

Ahhh so good to see you back! You have been missed.

[@crowquilltarot9008]

The. Best. You're dear to share. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@SacredHeartTarot]

Yayyy so happy to see you back!! 💚💚💚 My God Lateralus is sooooo good. Well placed.

[@chris379000]

Really enjoyed watching a video by you again :) Your book is AMAZING!!!! WOW, just WOW!!!!

[@kellythomas9101]

Looooove this. So inspiring. And I am so stoked to see Tool lyrics in your book. Tool songs will 100% be going into my Grimoire. I saw them twice in one year and it was like a portal of awakening for me in a crazy, Dark Night if the Soul sort of time. Their music is definitely spiritual and magickal. Sort of surprised that Parabola wasn't in there, but the ones you have would be the others I choose. This video gave me so many great ideas on what to incorporate into my book. Thank you for sharing!!

[@colinsmith8523]

Welcome back!! :) Nice to see you again....

[@LinCMA]

so happy to see you again! i love your videos 💜

[@InfiniteText]

This is the most beautiful book of shadows I've ever seen

[@lisbethnemandi369]

I love seing you so enthusiastic !

[@crowquilltarot9008]

P.S. Yes, my 42 year old son turned me on to Tool. I love them. They are such a treasure. I call much of the meaningful art and music "Tangible Evidence." Perhaps that is what I will name my book. Thank you for sharing your tangible evidence.

[@dawnrano132]

I really loved your video and your book is great. I can really see the heart and soul you have put into it. May I ask you where you got the floral and gold envelope with the matching writing paper that you put into the book a few pages in? I love stationary and in this time when writing emails are more the way to go, I still sit and write letters to family and friends. I feel it is much more personal to write a letter then to type one. For me is almost like a meditative process when I write it myself. Anyway I just love that writing paper. Any information you can give me about it would be greatly appreciated. Many blessings.

[@BrianCormackCarr]

Great to see you back! This is going on my “to watch” list for the end of this week 👍✨

[@sacredseed1295]

Brian Cormack Carr aww thanks love! it's funny, I was literally in the middle of watching some of the VRs to your awesome tarotrio challenge when u posted this! lol I'm totally gonna try and join in on the fun. xo

[@BrianCormackCarr]

That would be brilliant, I'd LOVE to see your choices! :)

[@PAB1068]

I just found you and noticed you haven't posted in a few years. I hope all is well with you. Blessed be 💞

[@zengilc]

Nice to meet u Elle .. i found out about your channel recently and since than i'm following you .. keep up the good work & thank you ! CeeCee :)

[@user-zx4vd5hc3d]

I LOVE TOOL. I plan on putting a few lyrics throughout my Book of Shadows. Most of them are definitely tool.

[@AmarnaJenniferWhitehouse]

Stunning BOS! Love this. BB ❤

[@queenofbling6292]

This is stunning!! Just starting my own grimoire

[@paulwesterfield2252]

Welcome back! You have been missed.

[@LauraLoken]

Youre BoS is soooooo beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing. Love it, Love it, Love, Love, LOVE! I'm so sorry to hear about your losses and hope that things get better. Regarding the person who may have written the Lesser Banishing Ritual, was it Donald Michael Kraig? His book Modern Magick is amazing and has lots of great information that is powerfully written yet easy to follow.

[@teapotsandtarot]

Pleased your back. Sorry for the difficult times you have been through.

[@corinatrian.2073]

So pretty book, so work to do, I make my book of shadows all made by my self too

[@LaDameDeLaNottTarot]

[@jamieloom22]

Welcome back we missed you

[@ancientesotericknowledgeme3042]

i really love all the detail and work you put into this book you have made you have dont very good work on it i love it, im also familier with dennis william hawk his work is very informative in regards to alchemy in the western hermetic traditions, i own this book named plant Alchemy and basicly its based on the traditions of using plants by way of alchemy, and ive studied a medieval Alchemist his name is Paracelsus he goes by that name for short but he has a longer name though, he is a practioner in the arts of herbal medicine and has studied the traditional systems of the chinese and western european alchemical plant medicines of as well, along with the greeks i believe also, but his studies are very complex once you really get into researching about him its great information about Paracelsus.

[@idkkimberlyanne]

Thank you so much for sharing! This is amazing

[@butterflymagicwithhottea9291]

I really enjoying seeing your BOS flip through as I work on mine. This video is awesome and I will watch more than once, for sure.

[@wolfofcoins]

[@marya.martin7455]
