My Spring altar
I thought it would be nice to post a picture of my Spring altar. Notice the little broom as a symbol for cleansing my sacred space. Yesterday I've lighted my candles, touched my element representations and performed a little ritual which felt really good en familiar to do. Hopefully this wil bring about a fresh breeze through spiritual practice.

How beautiful! I was just thinking of redoing my altar today and dedicating it to Artemis. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Eowyn! I Hope you will share it with us. :)
DeleteA beautiful arrangement. I usually don't change my altar setup, having the Green Tara as my center figure. But when I see your altar I really think about changing mine as well on a regular basis. BTW, where are the cards on the left side from (any specific deck)? Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThank you Radulf. I like to change my altar because I like to represent the changing seasons but even more because otherwise it becomes "dusty" in very many ways. It feels revitalized if I've changed something :D
DeleteDecks: Goddess Inspiration Oracle and Druid Plant Oracle
I also enjoy changing my altar. It does need to be cleaned regularly. That is part of my devotion. I usually change it at new and full moon, and will also change for sabbats or any special occasion, and always for ritual or special occasions.
DeleteI call it "altar altering" It is such a soothing thing to do. Perhaps I could think of something to symbolize the moon phases which then I could change during the month.
DeleteWow, that is beautiful, and it gives me a feeling of fresh, new starts! What is the lovely framed picture to the right of the candle? Honestly, your altar makes me sigh contentedly just looking at it. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you my dear sycamore. It works for me exactly the same way. Just standing before it makes me feel peaceful. I've found the picture on the internet and printed it (oeps) The artist is Wendy Andrew. If you like I can mail you the link
DeleteJust found her wonderful website! Good grief, this woman needs to do an oracle deck. :) Her "Luna Moon Hare" book looks lovely.
DeleteYes she is so talented!
DeleteYour altar looks beautiful, simple yet colourful. The daffodils look amazing, and the little bunny made me smile :) I'm missing my altar, which is still packed away in boxes...
ReplyDeleteThings will be normal sooner than you think. As I was writing earlier sacred space doesn't have to be set up in the physical world. Just imagine it as you would like it to be :)
DeleteAbsolutely lovely, Ellen. It looks so fresh and new ... and so spring. Perfect picture for me to see today :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Carol, I am so glad you like it :)
DeleteThat is so beautiful, such a warm welcoming space!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much
DeleteI can tell how much love you put into your altar. Beautiful and thorough! I am starting to feel that out houses are like altars in a kind of broader way. We adorn our space and set an intention.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Thank you MM. In that way sacred space is where ever you are in your house :)
