In which I give you a look inside my own magician’s notebook at the spells (and crucially the not-spells) that make up my commonplace book.

Some books referenced here:

A Dabbler’s Guide to Witchcraft by Fire Lyte (bookshop.org/a/4988/9781982174347)

Sigil Witchery by Laura Tempest Zakroff (bookshop.org/a/4988/9780738753690)

A Midwife’s Tale: The Diary of Martha Ballard by Laura Thatcher Ulrich (sorry for misnaming her in this video!) (bookshop.org/a/4988/9780679733768)

The work of Patrick Donmoyer at the PA German Heritage Center (paheritage.wpengine.com/article/powwowing-pennsylvania-patrick-donmoyer/)

Also Lee Gandee’s Strange Experience (out of print)

And, shamelessly, I’d recommend my own book, too.
