There's Magick Afoot.

So yesterday was Easter. We didn't really do anything. My mom and brother's sat down for Walking Dead and Game of Thrones. Me... I was up here working hehe. I won't tell you all that I did. But I gave myself a tarot reading, which I have to say was pretty fucking accurate.

 So first let me show you the spaces so far. This of course is the main altar, that I do work at. I found some fabric in my stash, perfect for spring. The stick will  be made into a wand soon. I am an air sign and since I'm not bound to any specific rules I think it's one of the few altar tools I need.
 This is a faerie Altar. I need a few more gems. But it has some purple lights that I bought for Halloween a couple years ago. That is an egg candle, which was a semi success ^^;;
 This is a close up of a the faerie bed. It's just a nice place for them to rest should they stop by or in need a rest after working with them. It was an old case for contacts, I just painted the top and sides and dusted with blue and purple glitter.
And here's the spot for Lord Ganesha. It's right beside the faerie altar, mostly due to limited space. Just some golden yellow cloth, with a pink trim. I think it's very fitting considering how simple it is.
Now on to the good parts right? Sorta.  This is just a preview to how the altar looks lit up. I don't have just one deity with whom I work with, there are several. But I do keep chalices. The one on the left is filled with healing spring water, from South Carolina. Can I tell you how delicious that water is. It is so pure and clean. The chalice on the right has sake in it. I didn't know what the spirits and deities would like. And my Sake hadn't been open. And I think it was a good that there was a choice. Some deities do have specifics when it comes to "Adult" beverages and I will honor that when I can.

This was actually the best photo I could get of the faerie and Ganesha altars lit up. They wouldn't let me have clearer close up even though I really tried. It's all good though.


 The altar lit in color. Candle on the far left there is a seven day candle. We generally light them for protection. But they do have some specific meanings when you delve into the different colors. Mine is white with the The Virgin Mary on front.

Close up of the tarot reading that I will allow. Just a three card spread nothing fancy. Though with all the candles going I don't think it would have been great to do something too big ^^;;;  All in all, it was a great night. I had trouble getting to sleep though. I managed 3 hours. Hopefully going to bed early will help with that.
