Crafting a Living Record of the Witch
At Coven of the Veiled Moon, the Grimoire is treated as a sacred artifact of magical sovereignty, but also as a living covenant among witches. Each member is the steward of their personal shadow book, yet we also honor a shared body of knowledge passed between us—spells, rituals, and reflections that have proven resonant and effective across time. This covenant is built on respect, reciprocity, and self-accountability.
Our Books are therefore both individual and communal:
- Individual: Each witch includes private spells, dreams, visions, correspondences, and divinatory results and maintains their book as they see fit.
- Communal: We have spells that have been coven-approved—tested, revised, and refined. These are inscribed in each grimoire in a shared, designated section. All coven-approved spellwork is reviewed seasonally, and members have the right to petition to adapt, annotate, or footnote with their own commentary—so long as the original is honored. Changes to the original coven Grimoire must be approved, and all versions preserved for later research and reflection.
- Philosophical: We believe no book is ever finished. These books are alive. They evolve, mirror our growth, and should reflect both praxis and philosophical insight.
Governance & Ethics
As a coven, we govern ourselves through consensus and informed participation. No one witch holds dominion over knowledge. However, we honor the wisdom of elders, the importance of citation, and the integrity of contribution.




Your Book of Shadows is a companion, not a static archive. It is a whispering forest, a ledger of trials, a record of ecstatic magic. It will grow with you—and, if shared mindfully, become part of a tradition that outlives any one witch.
In Coven of the Veiled Moon, we honor the mystery, but we also value clarity. We believe magic is both wild and reasoned, intuitive and crafted. Your book should reflect your spirit, your mind, and your devotion.
