Ok so I have a question, what does it mean when you see hazy lights around your altar? I have been seeing these strange lights that are hazy dance around my altar quickly and swirl. AM I NUTS?

Hi @sarah36 and welcome. I too am a new witch and can understand what you are talking about… To me personally, I think it is just how I am visualising my energy and the energy I put around and into the Altar, however there maybe a more specific name for this or other witches interpretations. I hope you will find your answer soon and others will also give their more experienced explanation

Hi Sarah and welcome to the forum!
Hazy lights around your altar could be a few things and only you will be able to determine what it is. First and foremost, I have to make sure I mention that seeing hazy lights could be a medical condition and if it persists, you should see a physician to make sure nothing is physically wrong.
As for spiritual, it could be energy or spirits that you’re seeing. It could also be a trick of the light if you have candles lit, too.

Hi, it only does this around the altar and no where else. I had my eyes checked recently.

Yeah it almost looks like a bulb of light with a tail huh? I have been known in the past to see spirits and I’m very sensitive (empath). I just was wondering what it could mean or if I was nutty.

No i am sure it is real and just because you can see it and others can’t still doesn’t make it not real and perhaps it means as you said that you are more sensitive to energy…

Merry meet @sarah36
That’s a great question! Since the lights are only appearing around your altar, then I agree with Megan and Khadija- it’s likely a form of energy appearing there.
If it is bothering you or giving off negative vibes, I’d recommend doing a thorough cleanse of your altar and the space around it. There some good suggestions for how to do this in Cleansing the House and Helping Spirits to Move On. You could also try cleansing with sage, palo santo, or salt.
If you believe it is a spirit/ghost who is there and not posing any danger, you could try to contact it. In addition to divination methods (tarot, pendulums, etc.), you could explore the following the discussions to learn about ways to contact and work with spiritual energy.
Wishing you all the best as you explore what is happening around your altar! Please keep us updated- Blessed be!

Sounds exciting to have positive spirits bouncing round the altar. Could they be little tricksters playing around?
Keep us updated on how you go attempting to communicate with them?
