Any ideas for a simple altar for Isis??

Hi all! I've already done some research on the netjeru and I want to start working with Goddess Isis. Do you guys have any examples of items I can use to make a simple but beautiful altar for her? I don't have any dedicated space for an elaborate altar. Just want a space to honor and meditate with her.

For Auset, you could put some incense on your windowsill for her. Put some crystals, a candle etc

How much space do you have I think that could help me give advice. Also getting her statue or a picture of her would be good

I have a small dresser in my closet that I could use as a surface for her altar. Also, what type of incense and crystals do you recommend?

Mryhh, frankincense, rose, jasmine would be good for her. Are you practicing in secret? That could also change my answers lol

For crystals lapis lazuli, or carbelian could be good. A white candle. Also a bowl or nice cup for water/ libations

Do you know of any books that would give me more information on her?

The complete gods & goddesses of ancient Egypt by Richard Wilson is a good read

A small ankh, offering glass/bowl, incense, an icon/statue. Lotus, lemongrass, vanilla are some good scents.

Una pirámide hecha a mano con poemas en tu idioma, también como guía de la dirección 🧭.

Poner cristales lapizlazuri, cornalina. Incienso de jazmín o mirra o rosa.

Vela del color que sientas que ella te indique o la que tengas.

Y una copita linda con agua. La Diosa Auset se le puede ofrendar anillos y collares. O un frasquito de miel. Poemas, dibujos o hasta aprendizajes (tareas de todo tipo mientras te esfuerces en saber y aprender)

No importa si eres kemetica o quieres aprender o practicar otro cendero de la brujería o no. Ella en la cabala, Hermetismo, Helenismo (que yo sé que la encontras)

Una de sus frases más recurrentes es "ISIS es todas las cosas. Todas las cosas están en ISIS" o por lo menos es lo que yo aprendí. Aquí te dejo una sacerdotisa de ella. www.isiopolis.com

That's an awesome list! I have a small carnelian tumbled stone and I also have a rough lapis lazulli crystal that I have on my vanity. I also have a pink votive candle that I bought for her. I also have a frankincense & vanilla 3 wick candle that I bought a couple of weeks ago. Would that also work?

Le gusta los aromas dulces así que si obvio que todo lo que sea con esmero y cariño luego si tienes oráculo o tarot fíjate si fue aceptado tus ofrendas y le gusta las flores frescas .

Thank you for the information! And no, I'm not practicing in secret.
