…respect 
@Drachir I understand completely. I can’t make altars like some of these pictures because religious parents. This didn’t start out as an altar at all. It is the desk where I first evoked my guide though. I felt urged to buy the minotaur and the little amethyst tree. The rocks I already had. I got those little felt bagged tourist polished rocks at 2 or 3 different locations when i was younger (aquariums in new Orleans and chicago and maybe one other spot). It turned into this. One of the things I’m really learning (because beginner) is how important intent is. Not just in spellcasting, but every aspect of life. My intention has been to honor my guide and through that intention he’s provided me with a way to do that. Which I’m super dooper grateful for! To think that it just started as a candle and a drawing pad!

I just got done redoing my altar with brand new items.
I have a new altar cloth, two new crosses which symbolize the crossroads, a machete, two new candlestick holders, a book stand to hold my grimoire, a skull mug, an offering plate and some cool orange Halloween lights.
I love my new set up!
I hope everyone enjoys

That’s a beautiful display. 
Mine gets tucked away in that box, on a bottom shelf in my room when not in use. I miss having somewhere to keep my stones out on display. Love the Amethyst tree btw, great idea!

@Mercury - Thanks 
A woman I know is asking someone how to make them. If her and I can learn how, I’m going to make a shelf for them : 7 for the colors of the rainbow and then a quartz one for light.

I’ve seen guides for that craft on Pinterest, not all the blogs give designs but the odd one does. They are beautiful ways to keep stones. The amethyst specifically is a neat idea because it naturally cleanses energies in stones when they’re kept nearby. I need a weeping willow of the stuff now that I’ve seen your display. XD

@Mercury That’s a super great idea. I do have some amethyst that I keep for protection. A few stones and some jewelry. I might put little rock-sized stones (corresponding ones) by the trees. Amethyst in front of amethyst and so on. Be an easy way to keep cleansed all the gems I buy and use.
