Hi there.
This is what my altar is currently looking like.
As this altar is focusing on celebrating Ostara, the colours are reflecting spring in all her glory.
Green for the main altar cloth to symbolise the green grass we see at the start of spring.
Purple for the secondary altar cloth as it reflects the flowers shooting up.
A large pink candle at the back in the center to show the prettiness in spring.
I have been lighting this candle every day since I prepared the altar.
Today I also added a silver candle to the left, and a gold candle to the right, to symbolise the goddess moon and god sun. Some days I’ve just had the pink candle, other days I’ve also had two white tapered candles burning. Just depends on what I feel called to each day.
You can also see that I have a little piece of white cloth at the very front of the altar. After I’ve finished lighting the candles, I like to choose a rune for my morning reading. Today’s was “Teiwaz”. It focuses on leadership, balance, logical thought and self-sacrifice. Not so much on the leadership or self-sacrifice today, but there was a bit of balance that I felt. Namely, the balance between spending time with a friend and the balance of home time. I needed a bit of both today.
Magical Blessings,
Rosalinda.
