CREATING AN ALTAR












           Creating an altar can be a way to focus our energy to a specific intention or can
           become a little nook of remembrance. Altars can be an anchor to reconnect you
           to you, or you to the wider world.


           It  can  be  a  place  to  gather  sacred          adornment suggestions

           reminders,       symbolize         values,
           relationships,  parts  of  selves,  or  a           photos, crystals, herbs,
           simple  space  of  calm  in  a  hectic              flowers, candles, oracle
           world. Make it yours. Make it mean                  cards....

           something.
                                                               anything that means
           Rather  than  just  letting  it  collect            something or is a symbol of

           dust,  I  encourage  you  to  let  it  be           something you are trying to
           animate, even if it feels odd. Feed it              call in, honor, or get to know
           offerings,  tend  to  it,  clean  it,  stop,        more fully
           pause  and  acknowledge  it.  Maybe                 acknowledge where you are
           you’ll even pick up on a pulse or a

           whisper at some point!                              from - represent ancestry,
