The Altar, May Day, and spirit guides.

This is sorta what my alter looks like. I have changed a few things around since this picture was last taken, but all in all you get the idea. I don't have all the tools that books say that is required to do magick, but that is because I don't think I believe I need all those tools. Mainly because you can also do spells in your mind if you are visually capable enough.  I have candles, herbs, books in the open drawers,  holy water, incense stick burner, a small white grinder,  a wand, a dagger, a big ceramic fantasy covered bowl I made in high school, a small ceramic tea cup that holds my stones, and a couple of white sage smudging bundles.

My brother is moving out at the end of the month so hopefully I have more room in my room to get a separate space for my alter and have a spot just for my alter stuff. And possibly a small book case to put all my books and journals I am collecting. I am looking forward to getting my room back into shape and get more space to work with. It will be my version of Spring Cleaning.

Also in light of May day. I really wanted to do some type of ritual, but the only thing that I really got to do was I had gotten a red rose from my boyfriend, and contact my spirit guides. I have two of them. For me it was a new beginning to actually hear my spirit guides talk to me and give me guidance. They are full of life and so very protective of me. One of them is a Snow Leopard, and the other one is a Kodiak Bear. They are so beautiful. I am glad I was finally able to talk to them and see them. As for how I did it, well I didn't do any rituals. I just concentrated on connecting with my heart, and who or what they are in my mind, and I opened my eyes and they were right there. It was interesting that, that is all that was needed. Or maybe it was just that I was ready to know who they are, and my time for them to appear to me.
