What’s the difference between a Grimoire and a Book of Shadows?
In this episode of Witches Wild, Auric and Jess break down one of the most confusing beginner witch questions and make it finally make sense.
We’re talking about what a Book of Shadows actually is, what belongs in a Grimoire, how to use both in your craft, and why neither of them needs to be perfect, aesthetic, expensive, or Instagram-ready to be powerful.
This episode is part witchcraft teaching, part permission slip, and part real-time conversation about shadow work, old timelines, nervous system spirals, and what it actually looks like to stop dragging the past into your new chapter.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, intimidated, or stuck when it comes to starting your magical practice, this one will help you breathe, simplify it, and just begin.
Inside this episode:
✨ the difference between a Grimoire and a Book of Shadows
✨ how Auric personally uses both
✨ why your Book of Shadows is your witch workbook
✨ why your Grimoire should hold your tried-and-true magick
✨ how perfectionism blocks the craft
✨ why messy magick is still magick
✨ a real conversation on shadow work, healing loops, and reclaiming your power
Your craft does not have to look polished to be real.
It just has to be yours.
