I wish I could post a couple pics of my BoS. But, I can't...at least, not at the moment. I started out with a blank journal purchased from Walmart. I then brought it home, and crocheted a green cover, with gold ruffled trim around it, to cover the book. On the inside, every page features artwork. I have pasted tarot cards into it, and have used colored pencils to draw in it. I even have glued coffee-stained pages into it, featuring things that I wish to place in my book. My desire was to have more than just a book with information written down. I wanted a work of art...something that was beautiful, and trulty inspiring to come to.
My BOS is a 3 inch 3 ring binder. I have printed in-color pictures on the front and back, with pentacles. I used binder dividers to separate my different areas of study. I have a 3 ring notebook for each area. All in all, it works wonderfully!!!! I never want a new one. So I wanted to make sure my BOS had enough room for many years of use. I used rainbow duck tape to reinforce all the edges and sides. Rainbow, to embrace my sexuality and also to embrace 'uniqueness'. After all, rainbows are ALL colors... and nothing is black and white, after all. ;) Isnt the Airts a 'rainbow', in a sense? Representing EVERYTHING? something to think about... anyways mine could be put in disguise too... as a school binder for college. I love it. :) Just sharing my BOS! I also have a pencil holder in the front, where I keep all my gemstones and divination divices. (well, not my tarot cards).
I would like to share something with the group...
A Beltaine story...
I have come to the tradition of leaving out libations for the Fairyfolk as part of my celebrations of the Pagan holidays. I leave out elderberry wine in a little porcelain thimble and butter cookie pieces in a small glass bowl. I left this out for the Ostara celebration and refilled it a few times. One day I noticed that the thimble had gone missing. (Honestly I thought it was a bird from the large elder tree in the back) I said to myself I hope it is returned before Beltaine or I may NOT be leaving out a libation! I further went online looking for and pricing thimbles to replace the one that was lost/missing. My goodness they had become spendy since I had gotten my 6 thimble collection some 5 years ago at the Dollar store in Kennewic WA. Anyway time goes on and here it is Beltain eve, so before going out to have coffee with my friend I put out some traditional libations for the Fairyfolk. Later when I returned took my little dog Wahldo out back for a potty break and while heading back up the stairs I noticed the thimble lying on the ground. The fae are so sweet and playful!
Thanks for letting me tell this sweet little story. Blessed Beltaine! ~M~
