How Can I Make A Shrine?
for many of us, we wish to show our thanks to the Gods and Patrons via a physical means, and shrines are a more than perfect way to do this.
Provided below (and on the Resources page) you'll find a helpful guide to making your own shrine for the Gods and Patrons.
Parts of The Shrine:
The major parts of the shrine, though of course optional, are as follows:
A symbol to the God(s) and/or Patrons you wish to worship, this can be as simple as a drawing of their symbol or a copy of their name, or as complex as a hand-made drawing of the God/Patron, anything is acceptable.
The offering bowl is very simple, being a simple vessel to hold offerings to the Gods, be that blood, coins, tea, or any small things you deem worthy, everything's acceptable in this case, boxes, bowls, or even a simple cloth to set the offerings on.
A writings bowl is a simple place to write down, and then deposit prayers or questions you wish to be answered by your Patron(s) Or God(s), its advised to keep strips of paper and a pen nearby, but do as you wish, some people may even choose something digital, or choose to not have one at all.
Ritualistic tea, blood, or mead can be considered very important to some people, since many believe in these liquids being cleansing or empowering, as well as this its helpful to have something which you consider holy to drink while you pray.
Other Options to Consider:
While all the things listed are important for the average individual making a shrine, some other things may be considered:
A pinboard, if you make art, make sigils, or wish to replace your writing's bowl with something else, can be added on the wall behind your shrine if wanted.
Also consider perhaps a few candles, or incense, not only is this just nice decor, but the flames and smoke can be used for divination, or simply to look nice.
A pillow can be added at the floor or the shrine, if you are one who gets on their knees to pray, as this can help for extended periods.
For those who are able to procure one, via printing out their own copy or if it is ever to be sold, the Book of Triadeism is always a wonderful addition.
As well as all these, any decorations, especially helpful ones (such as decor used for divination, such as scrying mirrors or pendulums) are not only welcome, but encouraged.
Final Words:
And as we close off, we'd like to thank all of our members for reading, and invite anyone to ask us any questions they can either in the comments below, or at our official email listed below, have a nice day!
