Ta-da. Now back to your regularly-scheduled lurking and not commenting or posting. :#)

So, with summer here. I thought I would set up an altar to have from Mid-summer Solstice through to Lughnasadh! And what better then to have a warm, summer playful altar to do so! :) This isn't my everyday altar, but it felt right to put together. :)
Hope you enjoyed!!

It's not sacred space to most but it's open to the public!
Now who wants to go on a field trip and say some hymns? :D
It shows the phases of the moon!

I like the white finish and how candles look reflected in the mirror, Also the mirror allows me to look back at my ever changing face,I dunno :/ What do you guys think?
The ancestors are fed behind the bathroom door in our rama [lineage of Santeria]. The image on the wall is drawn in efun or cascarilla which is a powdered egg shell and is a powerful symbol for use in ancestor reverence. The stick that is decorated with ribbons and fabrics in multiple colours is used to call the ancestors, to get their attention and is tapped in rhythms to the prayers that are been made to the ancestors.

( into the relationship corner of our dinning room )
- images of health/fitness activities (most likely people running)
- candles for transformation
- a small Ganesh (remover of obstacles and god of new ventures)
- sunflowers (which to me represent the vitality of the sun)
- possibly a representation of Artemis
**UPDATE**
Besides training for a 5k I recently signed up for (think of it as daily communion with the gods thru exercise) and buying new sneakers, I am creating a bulletin board as my altar complete with motivating pictures of runners (mostly of women i.e. the Goddess as the Runner), quotes, and a big flyer for my 5k event. Also, I put a small statue of a turtle at the bottom, slow and steady wins the race...
I mentioned in a comment to my last post that because of space limitations I'd had to get creative with setting up a kitchen altar. I think in every apartment we've lived in, one of my main gripes has been a lack of counter space in the kitchen. :-P
( For the kitchen witch, the entirety of the kitchen is sacred, these are just little reminders... )
These pictures are a few years old, after we moved out of this particular apartment I never really had an opportunity to setup another kitchen altar. And we're thinking about moving (again!), so it's not likely I'm going to set one up here, either. Meh. Hopefully the next place will have actual counterspace. ;-P
