Our Lycian Altar

This is a basic overview of the altar we use for the coven and for personal work. The table layout is in the traditional Lycian Wicca setup. Tools, etc outside the table layout are additional items we use at various times. “The Book of the Law” is any book that represents our understanding of the Divine Laws of nature. Sorry for the slight jiggling of the camera; I was holding it rather than having it mounted.

    Now that’s new…putting water in the North.

    Myself personally, I do it like this: air/north, earth/east, fire/south, water/west. Long story behind that and very limited comment form here. Let’s just say my reasoning for it is *really* prosaic. LOL!!

    The Lycian Tradition was established in 1989 by my husband Boniface.

    Due to respiratory health issues in our family, we cannot burn real candles. Health issues of a coven member was the original incentive for this electric alternative.

    I love it. This certainly spiked my interest in looking into other traditions’ altars. The light bulb luminaries remind me of my family’s south Asian tradition’s altars. I personally prefer wax candles on mine.

    Beautiful altar. I really like the basic representation around the God and Goddess, rather than the usual emotional/strength/etc. It’s a great and simple way to look at life in general. Thanks!

  • WiccanTexan said:

    They’re about the altar tools of my Wiccan Tradition.

  • WiccanTexan said:

    No offense taken. Skulls are a widely-used cultural symbol for death/rebirth. Why do they creep you out?

    Skulls creep me out. No offense. :P

  • WiccanTexan said:

    It’s my Tradition.

  • WiccanTexan said:

    No, they’re not real. We have skulls made of ceramic, plaster, concrete or styrofoam.

  • moome1649 said:
