A spread with questions I often ask myself when I’ve gone too far out. Great for those nights where you question existence. You don’t have to do each card in order, do it as you please!

Word of Caution: Past life readings can be rather difficult, emotionally to read. When I did mine, I almost started to cry. 

Who was I in my past life? 

Was I married? 

Was I happy in my past life?

What kind of work did I do in my past life?

Was I an honorable person?

What types of problems or challenges did I deal with?

Was I a famous person?

Was I in good health during my past life?

How did I die?

Did I have a soul mate?

Is my present love, someone I knew from my past life?

Am I linked to my parents of today from a past life?

Are any other family members from a past life of mine?

What do I need to learn during this life time?

I researched about familiars today, after re-reading the post I reblogged about them. I looked for a tarot spread to help me find my familiar, but I didn’t find any (if you know one, feel free to share it in the comments) so I made my own !

And I made a sigil too. Because I love sigils. (Same, if you know other sigils with a similar effect, don’t be shy !)

I struggle sometimes with what to write in my grimoire, so I thought I’d write a list to help myself and others :) and even though I keep my personal grimoire plain on the covers, I will include decoration ideas because not all people want theirs plain, and the decoration could also be for the inner pages :)

Decoration:

📖 paint the covers a colour or pattern that gives you energy

📖 a picture collage

📖 a pressed flower and leaf collage

📖 draw sigils, which are practical as well as pretty

📖 draw a pendulum or ouija board in your book, which is also functional as well as decorative

📖 washi tape borders, book marks and page keys!

📖 when writing in your grimoire, you can separate bits of information in boxes. Using coloured pens/pencils or patterned lines looks nice :)

📖 carefully paint the edges of the pages. I like it when this is done with metallic paint but the colour is a personal choice :)

Content ideas

✨ write a list of trees, types of animals, flowers etc that you feel a connection to if you think nature is important to your craft

✨ you could also do a list of objects in general

✨ write magical recipes that you like into your grimoire and what properties you feel the finished product has

✨ a list of your crystals and stones and what vibe they give off, and their properties

✨ write about solstices if you follow them

✨ when you do a spell, I recommend writing down your method and what result you got, for future reference. This way you can repeat the spell easily and it can be tweaked if necessary :)

✨ write about deities you have a connection to, if any

✨ write about your familiar if you have one

✨ If you feel drawn to a certain type of animal, you could write about what animal you have this feeling towards. It may be worth looking into getting one if your situation allows it! I believe that the animal I feel drawn to (more so after practicing witchcraft for a while!) could be a future familiar for me. For example you could write about how to care for them, whether they have any magical connotations, and name ideas if you think you’ll get one! :)

✨ tarot card spreads

✨ results of tarot/pendulum/ouija sessions

✨a list of sigils so you can remember them (they don’t have to be activated if they’re just for reference)

✨ if you feel drawn to a particular tarot card or one of your pendulums (if you don’t have multiple pendulums that’s fine! You could write about the one you have) write about it and how it makes you feel

✨ magical correspondences of herbs

✨ general information about the path you follow (or if you are eclectic, parts of each type that interests you :))

The Hallowed.

a tarot spread for samhain.

1. The Coffin.

This is what needs to be buried. What in my life needs to be left behind?

2. The Grave.

Some things are written in stone and can’t be changed. What in my life do I need to come to terms with? What can’t be changed?

3. The Hallowed.

A spread based on how your being is doing, how to learn more self-love, and what your heart wants you to know! I would suggest using this spread when you really need your heart’s advice.
