An altar is a space you can gather all of your favorite things (Crystals, statues, herbs, smudge substances, etc). It's the area you can go to find your centre and it is the place you can perform important self function (yoga, charms, rituals, meditation, and etc). For me, my altar space feels just like home foundation. When things get crazy (and as a mother of 2 littles, it DOES get crazy!) , I just take some deep breaths and reconnect with myself, will come to my altar area, light some incense, and re centre until I jump back into existence.
Altars can be almost any size or design that suits youpersonally - but that is the essential component necessary for any change...YOU. Your living area may be an whole space or it can be a badge. It can contain merely a few, or dozens of things. When you have children or pets, then perhaps your sanity (like mine) is in a secret location that no one else even has access to at all.
Since those tend to be where altar-type substances can accumulate, many people like to use coffee tables or dresser tops because altar spaces.
Should you keep crystals, incense, herbs, candles, statues, etc all on the area, that is okay. But for a lot of us, it can help to keep things organized by bringing them all together.
So where to begin? If you are ready to create an altar space, it is pretty straightforward and cheap (or even free!) For one started.
Things which bring you pleasure, harmony, peace, and goodwill such as:
Crystals (large, little, tumbled, rough- there's no rules) . Think about a dish of some kind, In case you've got more than just a couple Crystals. I love to keep my Crystals in a bowl full of sand so that they stay where they are put by me. Himalayan Salt lamps are also a terrific addition to any space that is change!
Altar fabric - may be some other fabric, blanket, or a tapestry which you are able to put on the surface of the altar room to soften the place or deliver the vibe which you enjoy.
Candles- lighting candles is a terrific way to establish intentions. Bring as many or few as you'd like. You might choose to set your candles on a plate or other dish in order to avoid any fire dangers if you are employing an abysmal fabric.
Herbs and incense encourage energies and to clean the atmosphere. I love to keep lavender for sage and calming for smudging. Palo Santo is another choice that is fantastic. Again, be sure to keep any burning materials away from surfaces. Shells are a good resting spot for burning herbs along with a bowl of rice is a good spot for incense.
Statues, photos, eyesight boards, boxes, jewelry, and other visual items to remind us who we are and powerful love crystals what we aim to do in this lifetime.
An altar space is a area that people don't have to talk about with individuals. Should you choose to invite someone in, then be sure whenever they leave to wash it.
Crystal Grids are a terrific thing to do on your distance. Developing a grid be created or can be complicated or simple, have a goal, temporary or permanent.
Simple grid: Put a bigger crystal (such as a cluster) in the center, surround it with four equally spaced transparent quartz crystals (extending out), and put several other crystals alternating the crystal clear quartz. It's possible to use Sacred Geometry (the blueprints of creation) or not, it is totally your choice.
Simple cleansing ritual: light a candle to set the intention, To cleanse the space around your change, burn some sage or palo santo to wash the atmosphere, and place any crystals. Contemplate Black Tourmaline and block and Amethyst to clear negative energy, Selenite for stability and calmness, Himalayan Pink Salt for cleanup agents, Clear Quartz for hydration, or any other stone you feel drawn to.
Whatever kind of altar space you decide to create, just remember to create it for YOU.
