Traditional BOS Symbols

Tradtional BOS Symbols
Images by Kathleen

The average witch usually records his or her book of shadows (or grimoire, whatever) which is meant to be a "diary" of all their magickal workings. In order to make their recordings simpler, as well as maintain secrecy symbols were used instead of words in sycopation with non-arabic (non english script) alphabets to represent some of the basic ideas that are common to almost every ritual. These symbols are still used today and are very useful when recording your rituals and spells.
