Hey guys!
My preferred altar is outdoors for a number of reasons: My parents take them down, I feel as though the energy isn't right, it's easier to meditate outside, etc. I've had a few people ask me for advice on how to make one, and I figured I'd just make a post about it.
An outdoor altar should have the same elements as one you would make indoors. I prefer to set up without a cloth, and set it up so that I can sit in front of it. Which for me is on a log over looking a stream bed.
When setting up your altar, keep these things in mind. If you plan on leaving it up, make sure that they are animal safe. For me, that's using bee's wax candles, greens, natural foods, and stones. Make sure whatever you leave, you're fine with loosing. Curious animals like to move or take things.
Above all, make sure that making an altar outdoors feels right and isn't distracting. It works for some, but not for others. c:
