Making Magic With my Sacred Source Altar Set

As a designer of statuary for Sacred Source, one of the perks is that I get samples of the statuary pieces I design.  I was positively delighted when the box showed up on my doorstep!  I've been anxiously awaiting getting these cool pieces in my hands since the conceptual phase of this project and now...they're here!!

Here is a close up of the God and Goddess statue, I love the way the candles light them!  If you want this set for your very own, they're available at Sacred Source, click here for the set, they are also available individually.
Here's how designing for Sacred Source works.  First I come up with a concept and run it by the good folks at Sacred Source.  Then I actually draw out a detailed drawing of what the piece should look like when complete.  I actually render each statue from the front, both sides and back.  This can be a real challenge since I can only see it in my mind so making sure that what looks right from one angle will look the same from another angle and so on.  I often use a model and photograph them from all the angles so that I can be sure they will sort of match up.  Then  I send these renderings with any notes to Sacred Source and they are also forwarded on to SASO in India where the actual sculpting is done.  We usually do a little back and forth through emails to check the progress and then the finished piece is made into molds and cast into the beautiful statuary pieces!  It's a really exciting process to see my two dimensional drawings come to life and hold it in my hand.  The sculptors are really amazing and do a wonderful job, I'm so grateful for their time, energy and care and respect for my vision!
My altar all set up with seven pieces and more of my accouterments, I've used a 20" round table.
Finally using them on my altar, I felt like the process had come full circle to completion.  The energy of these pieces is wonderful, between the good people in India and Sacred Source, the good vibes that are put into them mesh perfectly with the art and intention that I add at the concept stage.  The altar was just humming with life!

This great idea came from facebook friend Jean Marie to use each elemental candle holder to hold the natural elements! Brilliant! I used a small candle holder in the air element to keep the cone incense from burning it, red candle for fire, spring water and a sea shell in the water element holder, and a small bit of wood sorrel planted in an empty tea light holder for the earth element. Click here for the individual elemental candle holders.


I wanted to show you the side view of the elements, how the design wraps around.

And you can even tell which element each one is from the back!
I like to design things that I would want to have in my own home, and I really think that the artisans at Sacred Source lived up to that.  This is honestly my dream altar set and I feel very fortunate to be able to see it come to life. I plan to use mine all the time, and I hope that others enjoy it too.  It's the kind of thing that could be a nice splurge as the entire set is priced similarly to  their larger statues.  It would be a lovely set for a coven to chip in on for their gatherings!  I also think someone on a budget could get them individually as each one is pretty affordable on their own.  Someone could pick up one piece a month and immerse themselves in the lessons of each element, God and Goddess and the synthesis of all together represented in the pentacle.  Then each one could be blessed and dedicated one at a time, under the full moon that month.  It could actually be a transformative process of bringing each piece into part of your spiritual practice and connecting with them magically!

I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!  I plan to write a blessing and dedication ritual for each piece, watch for that coming soon right here on my blog.

Bright Blessings!

  10. MY EX IS FINALLY BACK TO ME

    I was so depressed when my ex left me for another woman. it made me felt like i was not relevant and my heart and love life was seriously destroyed. i could not concentrate in anything i was doing. i went online and searched for help but could not find any genuine spell caster until i went to Ocala Florida to visit my aunt to ease the depression and loneliness. when i got to Florida, i explained to my aunt who then felt pity for me and told me the secret she have not told anyone about the success in her marriage with her man. she then took me to the temple of powerful Dr. Ugo Wonders whom i met and explained my problems to. he promised to help me because of my aunt. i trusted his words and provided him with the materials needed to help me get my ex back and to my greatest surprise, after 48 hours of casting the spell, my Ex cam back on his knees begging for me to forgive him. i was shocked and surprised at the magic. we are happily married now and everything is working fine with us.I promised Dr. Ugo that i will never keep this a secret because he brought back my life and my world and that i will hare my testimony to the general public.
    My advice goes to any one out there who is emotionally depressed or having any similar relationship problem, to contact Dr. Ugo wonders the ultimate spell caster via his direct email generalspelltemple@gmail.com or call his temple line on +1 386-336-9876 he is the best in Florida....

  12. My husband was flirting with another woman. until he vanished away, I was desperate to get him back, I wasted so much time and money trying to get my Husband back, I tried almost all possibilities to have him back and nothing worked. I became lonely. To make it short, I found a spell caster Dr Azaka I saw the good testimonies about his wonderful work and after reading the Testimonials, I decided I had to try and give it one last try and After the spells, a miracle happened, my husband came home. It was really awesome to see the man I love in my arms again, anyone who needs help or relationship Advice, should pls contact dr Azaka via Whatsapp +2349059389105 or Email azakaspelltemple@gmail.com
