    cyber altars

    hello everyone

    I am starting to run out of room in my home and I dont want to have altars everywhere :P

    so my question is, do you think a cyber altar can work? like by maybeing making it like a college. Lets say I am working with a saint, I open up paint and get pictures and set it up like an altar?

    thansks and blessed be

    Hmm that's a good question. It would loose the personal touch... But I think it would just not as well. I would think it would be a good way to take an alter with you on the move. But I say give it a try and let us know what you find.

      I have seen a few webpages as cyber shrines and I even set one up on my gaia account. It ultimately depends on the person, how it's arranged, and how well they can concentrate while on a computer.

      surrounded by plush, downy things,
      ill prepared, but willing,
      to descend."

        I think it's a wonderful idea! You could use images of animated candles, maybe one of those icons that show you the current moon phase. Images of elements, deities, seasons, are so readily available. If I was more talented on a computer, I'd give it a go. I could open up that page on my netbook at work, stick on some nice youtube music in the background and have a few moments of prayer at my regular altar. Such a nice idea!

          I have read of shrines, indeed entire temples, being built in the astral plane. Don't know if that would interest you or not.

              I like the idea of cyber altars o:
              I think it's a really good concept. Especially since collage type websites are so readily available (and I wouldn't be surprised if you could find something along those lines in an app store).

              I believe it would be especially beneficial for people who are dealing with a lot of "clutter" or who are learning how to let go of things.
              Although I do like my crystals and setting them up in person :x

                It's pretty cool. This idea had never occurred to me but its a nice innovation in this day of constant connectivity to the internet and technology. I use to keep a journal that functioned sorta like an altar.
