      The term grimoire, or grammar, means essentially a book of learning and the name
        seems to make sense for a universal term for this book. The name "grimoire" is not
      the actual name used with any tradition. This name is used solely because the real
       name of the book is secret, and so it serves as a point of reference for the same item
between traditions. The things which are written within the book are religious
rituals, amendments to those rituals, and other things which have to do with
the religion. Things related to magick are written in a different book. It does
not serve as a diary.

In most traditions, the grimoire is composed by the individual, and the rituals contained therein are sometimes even written in runes or pictures so as not
to be understood by someone else. The rituals themselves are based in
the traditions and lore of the particular tradition, but also contain individual
flourishes as well. On occasion, the contents of the Grimoire may be
copied from a main book, sometimes referred to as the Great Book of a family.
