Wicca Altar

During my research into Wicca I found many sights and books full of information, but the one topic that always interested me the most was the Altar that a Wicca follower setup. I never really grasped why there were so many different acceptable ways to set up an altar, until I gave it a bit more thought. It’s like with Christianity. There are many different dominations to follow. They each have their own set of rules and laws. Therefore, it is not illogical for a Wicca follower to follow a different concept of how to set up their personal altar.

The site, http://blessedbe.sugarbane.com/altar.htm gives two great examples of different methods to set up an altar. Take a look at the site and explore them both, letting me know which one intrigues you the most.

I have to agree with the blog writer’s choice. I like the idea of the Elements and their directional pull. How about you?

Dagaz Rune

Is the rune that corresponds with ideas of day, light, change, and beginnings and ending cycles. Basically, a new day has begun and the darkness is behind you.

It is the 24^th Rune and color representing it is light blue. The element of Fire and Air links to it and most consider it male. It is said to be associated with the God of Heimdall.
