Thank you this is a lovely idea… As this is only placement otherwise know as work experience, i do not want the staff reporting me for something so i maybe a little iffy about it and lunch breaks are just long enough for food and toilet breaks… Otherwise i have been planning to make a mini travel altar and may plan one instead for now. Thanks for the idea :blush:

I actually put crystals in my bra when i go out in public, it helps cut down on all of the noise. And/or carry a mojo bag if i have pockets.

I have little pouches that have drawstrings. I put my crystals in those & tie the strings to my bra strap or belt loops to carry them with me. I have attached them to my purse to hang inside or my keys if I am walking somewhere. If I just put the actual stones, then unless there is a pocket type for the pad to come in & out of the bra, I lose them too easily.

You’ve got some awesome ideas of your own and some great suggestions from the coven on top of that! :blush: I would put another vote for meditation- it can be done anywhere at anytime, requires no items to prepare, and won’t raise too many eyebrows if people come across you while you’re doing it :person_in_lotus_position:

There’s also spending time in your Inner Temple- if you haven’t done the practice before, you can use that time to build up and design your inner sacred space. It’s a fun and personal project that you can do :sparkles:

Good luck- I hope you can find some great ways to spend the time and connect with your practice, @TheMuslimWitch ! :heart:

Good day Sweetness,
I carry a pocket altar with me. An empty Altoid tin, filled with altar tools, even if it’s only a very small cut out pic, A birthday candle, matches. I use incense matches, kills 2 birds with one stone, incense & match. A small vial with whatever you choose. McDonald’s has really small salt packets, perfect for making holy water and any other needs. A tiny wand, a tiny knife. There’s no end to what you can put in the {now decorated} tin. Your suggestions sound great too. How about a smokeless candle? Charms will also work for your tin. Like from a charm bracelet.
Many Blessings and lots of love
Garnet

The smokeless candles aka electric candles is a great idea! Now all i need to do is find the time to gather the right supplies…

I couldn’t help myself and realised that I can make my own travel/pocket altar from a lot of small things I have at home such as a small point quartz crystal as a wand, white spell candles, feather, shell, cone incense, a sparse bottle to put moon water for cleansing, moon water, small wooden moon box, small herbs and crystals. The only spare items I didn’t have was a small tarot deck, a spare altar cloth and an athame so I purchased a nice foldable pocket knife for the athame, brought a pentacle altar cloth and printed out some mini tarot cards and I will later use clear tape to make sure they last longer>>>>>

This is a wonderful question @TheMuslimWitch! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: I found myself in a similar position of not being able to openly practice while on vacation with family. My husband knows I’m a witch but my adult child and my in laws do not and I kinda want to keep it that way. lol I think that’s the wonderful thing about our individual paths and practices is that we can adapt them to suit our needs, situations and environments. I wasn’t able to do the spellwork I had hoped to do while on vacation but I managed to make moon water and charge my crystals and meditated when I could as long as I could or until I was too distracted to stay focused. All of your ideas are wonderful! It shows that despite your busy schedule your dedication is very important to you! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:
