Busy, busy day doing a major redesign, cleansing, and charging of all altars. Hard work, but this is something that I always recommend to do before the end of the year, and one must lead by example, right?
My altars are not permanent; as my path, my needs, and I myself evolve, they do so too. They follow my inspiration at any given time, and also point in the direction I want to focus on; they remind me of my goals, and act as a catalyst for future change, just like a spell does.
They are not tied to one practise or religion, and the statues can represent specific entities, and also concepts, just as I choose. Because it is my practise, and my life, and no-one else's, and remaining in a static place is not for me. Because I am a child of Exu Eleggua, I crave evolution, and I welcome change.
I have many plans and project to expand my work during 2024, that will be revealed in their due time; some of the seeds of those projects are being planted today. We are a bit tired (it's the evening already in Tenerife), and covered in (magical) dust, but the energy in the house is electrifying.
So remember: if you want to change/update/transform your altar, do it. No deity or Spirit will ever punish you for doing so, unless you are incredibly disrespectful and sacrilegious with your altar items, on purpose. Spirits care way less about altars than most people think.
