Most Witches know that a Book of Shadows is a
place to put rituals, spells, and journal entries of your Craft. This
is the Blog of Shadows.
Think of this Blog as CyberWitchcraft's online
Book of Shadows.
It's a place we post additions and changes to the
site, as well as articles of interest that are just too small, or too
time sensitive to be a normal website article.
All without having to actually come to the
website! If a blog interests you, simply click the link in the blog to
be taken directly to the page of interest.
To subscribe to the Blog of Shadows (no
e-mail necessary), right-click on the orange RSS button (see the
buttons to the left, under the Navigation buttons) and then paste the
URL into your RSS reader. Or click on the My Yahoo! button, My MSN or
Add To Google
button if you keep a personalized home page there.
If you're using Internet Explorer 7, or Firefox,
you can set them up to notify you of new Blog entries too!
