Everything Under the Moon

I'm looking to build my own altar table. I want to incorporate my Zen Buddhism and love of Japanese culture into this table as well. I have some design ideas, but I want to make my choice of wood and stains (I'm thinking a dark stain) matter. Does anyone have any good suggestions for types of wood a...

It kinda looks like it has a hole in it at the top

Someone else in the original board she posted that on suggested that. We have no idea. What is that and what is it used for?

Mine is a name of my own crafting. It is a combination of sylph which is a wind spirit and axiom which means something accepted without proof. If I sit in the woods and feel the world around me the wind whispers to me. I've always felt close to these spirits as well as all elemental spirits and sinc...

A friend of mine was gifted a bunch of stuff to start an altar and there's this fragrant bit of wood she doesn't know what it is or what it's for. Do you guys know?

I have been able to see the growing closeness in Saturn and Jupiter which, according to research, will culminate in a Great Conjuncture on Dec. 21, 2020. I know little of astrology (only bare basics), but I was wondering what this all might mean. I feel something brewing and change coming (for the b...

I've had lots of pets and I often get rather close to them. My wife is much more in touch with them but even still, I sometimes have one or so who likes me best.

I was wondering what a familiar is to you and the benefits of such a friend? Also how do you usually know you have one when it comes up.

Perhaps, that is something I never thought about. Kinda wonder why he scares me though. Perhaps it is merely the lack of understanding rather than true fear.

I can see that. I'm no stranger to the tiny spec of human existence since I often dream and see the flow of life and time (long story) but this was something else. There may have been other circumstances at the time but mirrors still make me uncomfortable. I feel watched and... something else when I...

I haven't thought of doing a calendar spread like that. My spread looking ahead was about our financial situation. The pregnancy was an after throught, but one I should look deeper into.

We've checked with the doctor and she should be fine. Her thyroid levels will need to be closely monitored, but I'm convinced she won't turn a positive test (something the doc disagrees with me on). She had all the symptoms of pregnancy once before with no positive test and ended up with a miscarria...

Am I the only one who can't stand to look in a mirror? It's not some issue with the way I look specifically, but rather just a general avoidance with them. I remember I wince looked deep into a mirror into my own eyes and got spooked. Since then I rarely glance in them unless I need to and never at ...

In my experience it makes everything confusing and you're personal mental space gets clouded and distorted or "covered up" with everything around you. Grounding helps you to keep yourself separate from your gifts (especially with empaths). I try to ground every full moon or any time I'm fe...

I am as well :) have been all my life. I had some trouble with it in high school and, in my attempts to control it, almost cut myself off completely. I've since started coming back to my abilities (empathy, aura reading, seeing "the river of time" and getting psychic vibes from touching pe...

While I generally stay away from "yes/no" questions when using my tarot, tonight I had a question that we've been bouncing around and thought there may be some insight. First, let me say this: when I pull a yes/no card, I'm not looking for a real yes/no. I'm looking for some insight into t...
