Hi @megan4
Like Tracy said, there is no need to be scared. Deities will not expect perfection all of the time, especially when you first begin to work with them. When I started working with Osiris, I didn’t have a statue, only a picture I drew. Altars don’t need to be elaborate, just functional for you and you deity to communicate and work together .
Take a look at this post I did about Anubis a few weeks ago. It gives an overview of him and his mythology, but also epithets you can call him by, suggestions for altars, offerings, correspondences etc.
Hope this helps but if you have any questions, just ask and I’ll be happy to help.
Blessed be
Alan.
