Alter

Definition:
An altar is a space—temporary or permanent—dedicated to your practice, and journey. It often holds tools, symbols, offerings, or images of deities, your path, your practice, and of your divinity.

Usage:
“My altar changes with the seasons, and I leave offerings there each week.”

Why It Matters in Corvus Veritas:
An altar acts as a spiritual touchstone. It centers your practice and serves as a beacon for your energy, deities, or ancestors. Every altar is a reflection of the person who tends it.

Guidance for Students:

  • Clean your altar regularly to keep the energy fresh.
  • Let it evolve with your needs, practice, journey, and deities.
  • Don’t worry about aesthetics—focus on energy and intention.
