The Altar - The Heart of Power

Altars have been used for thousands of years and are used in nearly all religious practices. Regardless of your faith, you too can erect an Altar as a place of worship to your divinity. So what is an Altar? what is it's purpose? What is the difference between an Altar and a Shrine? In this video, Helen discusses the workings of the Altar and what it means to her in her craft.

technically there's not such thing as "correctly set up altar". There are 1 part, 2 part, up to 10 part altars. And it's all up to the individual. just FYI to anyone who thinks otherwise. You should do what feels right to you.

@ibkristykat exactly! the altar is a reflection of ourselves
