Definitely awesome, and I cannot think of a god or goddess that would turn down cookies. Or cake. But once again, t'is awesome-looking.

The cookies are for fairies and pixies

True stuff, might there be a particular deity the altar is devoted to? Out of humble curiosity of course...

This ritual was done to honour my ancestors, loved ones, who passed away and another ghosts and creatures, that are walking on Earth at Samhains Night
This was just a little ritual. My main altar (and a little second one) is devoted to the Great Goddess, Mother Earth

Interesting, but there wasn't really any kind of weird rituals on Samhain. It was pretty much just kids getting in costumes and trick or treating, accompanied with a bonfire feast to bring in the Celtic New Year and honour the dead. And the pentagram isn't a Celtic symbol, it's a Christian one. Despite what those silly wiccans believe, it never had anything to do with western paganism, in any way. You'd be better off with a Celtic weave, or even a common Jack-o-Lantern, since we made those too.

What??? Pentagram is a christian symbol??? Christians came AFTER celts and "pagans" and stole all of the symbols and feast!! They even stole the cross symbol, they were building their churches on the old places, that were sacred for pagans. All the symbols, that are Christians using, are very much older, than this silly faith. Christians are nothing, but thieves!
And Im not a wiccan, for your information.
...Weird rituals... The costumes, that are people wearing on Halloween today... in the past time, it was a "protective" thing, because people believed, that the ghosts, wandering on earth in the time of Samhain will be confused and will not harm you.
If you want to look as a "clever" one, get your informations right.
Enough said. Thank you.

Beautiful setup! I wish I could have done something like this on Samhain, but it's so hard with a hubby who's an atheist. *sigh*

Can I ask what each of these pieces is? I'm always curious about other people's altars,

Wilhelmine In reply to MotleyDreams [2011-01-01 14:43:33 +0000 UTC]

From left to right (above the pentacle), theres a plate with offerings (bread, apple and cookies), a cup with wine and a stone. Then theres a tall black candle and three tea candles, orange, white and black. Then theres wood (a couple of little branches) and a crystal ball. Then theres a incense holder, athame and wand.
Under the pentacle is a Book of shadows

Lovely setup. Thanks for the explanation... I wish I had the pentacle you have. I should save money and get one, but I never seem to manage that. Each of your pieces are very special- it must've taken you awhile to collect them all.

Love the amber shades to the photo. It gives off a mysterious feel to the piece.
