I love my lists, calendars and collections. My Bullet Journal has my entire life contained in one (somewhat) tidy place. But for a long time, I had nothing in there about witchcraft or spirituality; arguably a big part of my day to day life. Perhaps it was because I was using the BuJo as a tool for trudging through the ‘mundane’ things in life I needed help finishing. I tried incorporating my craft into it, and found that not only was my witchy life a lot more organized, but I was also enjoying my Bullet Journal that much more!
Here’s some stuff I recommend adding to your Bullet Journal. Or better yet, make a separate one just for your path (BuJo grimoire, anyone?)
Witchy little add-ons:
- A sigil on the inside cover to prevent the journal from being lost, stolen or read.
- Enchant a bead or charm with a productivity spell and tie it to the bookmark ribbon.
- Create additional symbols for your legend to mark witchcraft or religion-related entries in your daily pages.
Collections to make:
- Quick-reference stone and herb properties for your most commonly used ingredients.
- Sigils and their meanings.
- Wishlist of tools, stones, herbs, books, etc. that you wish to get.
- Wheel of the year (if applicable) or other dates relevant to your path.
- Dates of full and new moons.
- Quick colour correspondence chart.
- Keep track of spells from books you’d like to try by listing the book titles and page numbers in one place.
- Make a portable spirit or pendulum board on a page.
- Doodles of potential altar designs – or design one you dream of putting together!
- Your star chart (sun sign, moon sign, etc.)
- Dream log and/or record for lucid dreaming.
- Make a paper shrine to a God or Goddess you work with; paste or draw images related to them, write prayers, pen letters to them.
- Goals for your craft that you wish to reach in the next month, six months, and year.
- Quick charms, glamours and affirmations that can be done on-the-go when you need a boost.
- List of self care ideas. Because self care is totally magical.
- Tarot cheat sheet (like this).
- Tarot spreads you wish to try, or often use.
- For Vultures; progress log on bones/hides you are cleaning.
- For spirit companions and workers; info on your companions and interactions.
- For servitor creators; info on your creations, including their tasks, code words, names and rules.
- For gardening witches; garden plans, sketches and progress.
- For hedge witches and astral travelers; record of places you’ve been and your success rate with travelling. Or of you build astral spaces, draw blueprints of your next project.
- For kitchen and hearth witches; recipes you love, correspondence chart of food ingredients, natural cleaning solutions.
Please feel free to add on to this with your own ideas! I would love to read how you keep your witchy life organized.
Love, love, LOVE!!!!
