I want to Be!

I definitely agree with Jonathan.  Only you know what should be in your BoS.  A binder seems to be a fine form for it to take.  Jonathan also has great ideas for what to put in it.  A table of the planetary hours would also be a fine thing to include.  It's YOUR  BoS.

@Wolfsong> Well, if you want tips what to include, I use the most my section where I have copied down sets of runes, symbols, sigils etc. and where I can readily find their respective meanings. I use them when crafting spells. What also came in handy is a list of banishing and summoning pentagrams - how to draw them and at what points to start respectively for different elements (includig active and passive spirit). But you should include what you feel is good to be there. I list spells, formulas and loads of other stuff in mine. Individual Book of Shadow is in my opinion a reflection of its creator and you can't really have definitive set of rules what to put there, what not and what it should all look like. Let the Goddess and God guide you sister...

i have a sort of binder it's in at the moment, and i will use binders for other parts to separate it into sections.

What form do you want your BoS to take?  You can get plain or fancy.  There are black blank books you can get marked with a silver pentacle.  You can get a silver pen or a colored decal and mark it yourself.  Scrapbooking is big right now, so every spell can be embellished as you Will.  You have a lot of decisions to make at this juncture.  The main question is the one I asked at the beginning of this comment:  What form do you want it to take?

need some advice/help in starting a sort of more permanent BoS. all i have in mine is a Book of Days section that i copied from a pagan book of days from the library. and even then, it's pretty bare.

@stromymeadow: as ShadowDancer says. Also as far as a good page with interpretation of symbols goes, try http://en.mimi.hu/dreams It's a meta-search of dream symbol databases all over the net. Usually it's good to have a look at what several databeses say as dreams are a very personal thing and if the interpretation listed doesn't feel right to you, than it simply isn't. You will know once you see the right interpretation of the symbol. Dream interpretation of your own dreams is pretty much foolproof that way. Don't beat yourself up over something that feels bad if you feel it is not the right way of looking at the dream. Another site worth looking at is http://www.dreammoods.com/ It's a really good dictionary and there's plenty of info, also pertainig to how to interprete your dreams in a general way. Also if you are inclined that way, some people say some dreams are visions sent to us from outside sources (such as God/Gods, ethereal intelligencies etc.). However, I think that a dream vision is something you KNOW is a vision. You wouldn't have trouble confusing it with ordinary dream (i.e. the one coming from your subconscious). But as I said, each of us has different views on these things I presume.

This is your subconscious's way of calling your attention to something.  I hope that you are recording your dreams in the dream journal.  Go over them, and see what the symbols mean to you.  You are the one best equipped to interpret your own dreams, since the symbols in them mean to you what they don't mean to anyone else.
