🛐 Weekly Witchy CHALLENGE - All About Altars!

I most definitely will not ignore the gnome, he’s lovely!

Had a bit of an update this afternoon to my Beltane altar.

After a garage tidy this morning I found this material that I’ve been savings for years for the right purpose, a piece seemed ideal as an altar cloth. Also found the dragon incense burner I’ve had since I was a kid. I added the Norwegian troll which was handmade and bought at a Christmas fair in my home town years ago from the stall hosted by Norwegians who used to come over specifically for the fair.

The small picture above the altar I found on Etsy.

Planning to cleanse and bless the altar this evening.

Tonight my Beltane altar has been cleansed with palo santo and I’ve offered a prayer to Persephone.

I’ve also carried out tonight’s moon ritual, using mint and rose petals as incense in my cauldron.

The moon in Libra calls to me as I’m a Libran and a lawyer, and the emotional side balanced with the logical side certainly rings true. My head and heart have had battles in the past but I’m hoping they’ll walk in harmony from now on.

I feel very peaceful and blessed for all I have.

Blessed be :sparkles:

The sun has gone down and the Altar is all lit up :star_struck:


I held a ritual for the energy circle for healing and strength for everyone and I made my new protection oil as well :slight_smile: Grapeseed oil carrier, Geranium, Pine and Lavender essential oils :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Greetings everyone, I hope all are doing well. This challenge is a nice one so I am glad to see so many sharing their altars. Here are some pictures of mine. I have three altars, four if you count the table that holds some of my books, my Tarot and Oracle cards, and a few other things.
This first one is my main altar and the main place where I do my rituals and spell work.

The second one is used when I am doing any extra energy work or when there is a Sabbat, although it is left in place all the time.

The third one is used when I am working with the elements and calling on the quarters and I use it at least once a week.

And the last one is my Tarot table which probably gets used as much as my main altar (please pardon the dust). :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

I would like to eventually have a room dedicated exclusively for an altar, but I will make do with what I have for now. Blessed be and have an amazing day.

I wrote my husband a cheesy love :love_letter: letter! If you didn’t notice there is a harp on my alter and I played some music! I heard the beautiful vibrations that we’re harmonized! I called on Aphrodite

And passion mighty

Okay, so I have two altars. One in front of my computer, where I spend most of my time, and one on a bookshelf behind me. Then I have another shelf which I’m starting to decorate with altar items, like my cauldron and chalice, and my box of crystals. It’s not done yet so I’ll just show you one level of it with my new God and Goddess miniatures.

That’s in front of my computer.

That’s from my corner shelves.

And that’s from my bookshelves. All of them are decorated for early summer/Beltane.

Hope you liked!
