Start your own thread named "[Name's] Book of Shadows" and add spells, rituals, correspondences, music, videos, etc. that you would like to keep for future use or share with others. Use as many posts as you'd like. It's not private, but at least your family won't see it. You can also get ideas from other people's Books of Shadows.
I like sleep more than most. It is always refreshing to wake up to... forgiveness. If I want one thing I will get it. The Virgin God is a truth-teller, so as I want bare nothing I am bare nothing. Peace wants silence.
Magic is the miracle of life made perfect, ie honouring all men and appreciating all women for being tolerant. To have this happen, the magician must love himself in such a way as to ignore enemies. The enemies are both right and wrong, so such a concept must be dropped. What is between right and wrong? Pure fun. It is necessary to have mastered ego, which thus can be put to use as service. [Service wins.]
So,
1) Accept your purpose - heaven on earth
2) Win your only game - you should know
3) Be magnanimous - magic is not for heroes
4) Tilt when unhappy - cheats are out
Everyone who knows spirituality at some point understands that Love is the only meaningful thing. Now, there are two ways this understanding lives. By light or by sound. Light, for believers, sound, for followers of anything. Everyone literally believes in the light, when they do believe. So be that the choice is unique, then.

The Spirituality of Fear
Fear is post-life and pre-birth - people are being rebirthed all the time. The difference between sane fear (innocence) and victimhood (guilt) is consciousness. Consciousness wants TO love, it is just a question how how. So, what do you want next? What is in your memory that will transgress into the future? Will you be a sound now? These are the questions that determine your Divinity. Of course, divine fear is not afraid - it is simply too unique and fun-loving.
One can fear any way at all, any thing at all, for any reason at all. The sketchboard is fair and apt to knowledge. It's just a matter of realising the past and the future, right now, and calling it a journey.
Fear is the heart of love - once feared it is chosen. So be good to yourself and make that choice conscious.
The difference between honesty and truth is purpose.
The difference between purpose and life is the divine.
therefore,
The truth is as divine as it is guided - not to be typically normal but to know something more, which we call heaven.

The Heaven Trick is to smile having healed. By all means make it to the end of your path and you will certainly meet fate. Thing being, when you're happy fate is not an antagonist. People follow, OK. All that comes of that photosynthesis is divine and fortunate, ugly as the situation may actually seem to be. barker
the one thing, the best finding
the least of all guilts, made me understand,
the significance of time,
and i never knew why.
things that happen, things that don't,
love that means it, life that won't,
i must regress to eternal proof,
the matters that were not brought of youth.
for less to understand i acknowledge truth,
for more to realise i forget,
i don't need a hammer,
for a hammer has no wonder.
all good things i may beget.
the overly bored and the tiresom,
two different people.
all meet at death though,
and agree on the theory
that all cannot understand the significance
of a lifetime of trying,
unless one can overcome
the certain fear of dying...
1. establish your mind as alone - this is about the fear of death
2. realise what you want - sex and money and everything in-between
3. affirm the best choice - knowledge/knowing is the gateway to more
The rest is working with love. Clearing, healing, and whatever magic suits best. Your depth is your level of wisdom, dig as far as comfort joyfully allows. Bliss.
