Types of Witches

Animist Witches - You've probably been told that animations are created by quickly flipping through lots and lots of still frames, but this is all an elaborate coverup. Obviously that shit is magic.

Cristal Witches - Made from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, Cristal Witches are aged for six years, then left for a further 8 months after dégorgement.

Dianic Witches - Only witches named Diana are allowed to join. No, Diane, you aren't "close enough".

Elemental Witches - This is who you call if the heating element on your stove goes out.

Gardnarian Witches - Very good at gardening. Less crossover with Hedge Witches than you might expect.

Green Witches - They are green. What are you not getting? Think Wicked Witch of the West. The melting in water thing was greatly exaggerated for the story, though. That almost never happens.

Hearth Witches - This branch of witchcraft is known for their fire building techniques, most likely developed in response to living in drafty houses.

Hedge Witches - Work with topiary mostly, but may dabble in bonsai or flower arranging.

Kitchen Witches - Like Sandwiches but less specific.

Solitary Witches - Hard to say what they get up to as most of them are extremely reclusive and/or off the grid entirely.

Traditional Witches - Very concerned with broom regulations and authenticity. Will give you shit if your pointy hat is not historically accurate.

Things to put in your book of shadows

Of course, only put in your book of shadows/grimoire what you want. If you don't want to put certain subjects in your book then that's fine. It's your book, utilize it how you want. This is just a masterlist of ideas that I've put together. Feel free to add anything else to the list that I may have missed, because there's absolutely no way I included everything.

And for the love of all the gods, if you come across a closed entity or practice, don't try to work with the entity or practice if you're not already part of that group or tradition. You can research it but don't practice it.

The Ultimate Grimoire Guide

So! I have been seeing a ton of grimoire ideas and thought I’d stuff them all together. A lot of ideas are from @manifestationsofasort, @banebite, and @pigeonflavouredcake. Check them out! They have a ton of cool stuff there.

What Do I Use For My Grimoire?

You can use anything for a grimoire! For a physical one, journals, binders, and notebooks are good. For digital ones, Notion, Tumblr, Docs, and even just your file folder are great.

you know what, shoutout to the neurodivergent people with "scary" symptoms.

the ones who:

-say dark things without realizing

-talk to themselves

-have homicidal thoughts

-get really, really angry

-make others uncomfortable on accident

-don't tolerate bullshit

-can't/won't mask

-have dark interests

-have genuinely hurt others before

-have been in a psych ward before

-obsess over people

-have intrusive thoughts about hurting people

-have sexual intrusive thoughts

-don't really care about others much

-always choose themselves first

-have low/no empathy

-are seen as creepy or scary by others

this goes out to my folks with autism that isn't "uwu cute". personality disorder havers. schizospec people. ocders. odd and ied havers. and anyone and everyone else.

this post does not support intentionally hurting people. but people who have hurt others in the past and have changed or are trying to change/in the process of changing are more than welcome here.
