''Not every Holiday/Sabbats doesn't resonate with me''. Yes Yes, this!!! I am the same way with Litha and Ostara...once in awhile Beltaine. But I am more of a Autumn and Winter Person. You Litha Altar is BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! LOVE THE 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 🌻 My favorite!!!!
Thank you darling! I’m so glad I’m not the only one. It would be Autumn all year round if I had my way! Thank you so much for watching and for your kind words. Solstice blessings to you 🌞🌞xx
@@seonaidhalkyard4434 Manchester is a great city with really lovely folks living there 🐝 I really hope you get chance to visit Cherry’s shop, we might bump into each other there! ♥️
I've just come across your channel because of Coffee with Crones channel. I just discoved them as well at 3 in the morning. Lol. Im enjoying your channel very much. Your alter is ver beautiful.
Love your Summer Solstice Altar 🙌 As I’m in the SH mine is a Winter Solstice-Yule Altar. Like you I don’t mind sharing my Altars. I’ve been keeping warm and cozy in my cottage sipping on cups of tea, knitting and re-watching my fav UK crime shows. Blessed Solstice to you Alison 🙏🏻
Warm Yule Blessings to you sweetie! I hope you’re having a really happy cosy time with your crime dramas - as a massive Midsomer Murders fan, it sounds like the perfect celebration to me! ♥️
Hi Alison! It’s always such a treat when you post videos for us. Thank you for sharing your beautiful sacrad space. I love salt lamps and crystals. Beautiful crochet sunflower 🌻. I only have Mabon and Litha. I love the warm autumn colors of Mabon and the bright colorful Litha. I hope you had the most wonderful time during your week off from work 💕✨🦋
Hello my lovely, I’m so happy to see you again! ☺️Thank you for your kind words, I am glad you like my altar! I’m already getting excited for the Harvest sabbats and making plans 🍁🍂 🌽 🌾 I had a really lovely break from work, thank you. I have been thinking of you. Sending you all my love xxx
@@fifty-somethingwitch2406 It’s 1 a.m here and I’m having trouble sleeping. I’m glad you had a really lovely break. I can’t wait for our late Autumn here and winter. It is just way too hot lol. 🏜️🌵
@VanessaKismetSmitten I’m not surprised you’re struggling to sleep! We were struggling here last night and the temperatures here are not even close to where you are!! Look after yourself sweetie 🥰
Thank you for sharing your beautiful altar, I love the descriptions & why you’ve chosen certain objects. Those oracle cards were clearly destined to be on there. Your new set is beautiful, I love the energy in the artwork & the inclusivity. The deer antlers - while it’s sad that they are not ‘naturally obtained’ , you didn’t know that at the time,& it would now be disrespectful to the beautiful creature if you were to dispose of them in anyway. I love that you acknowledge that & I feel it adds a greater respect that you’ve done so. ❤️👏🏻xxx
I have all of the Sabbats books. And so for I have all the seasons of the witch decks. Love them all I can’t pick my favorite!!! I have so much to be grateful for, family and friends! love all your video. I thank you for all the information you share! Keep them coming
The sabbats books are lovely aren’t they? I use them all the time and I’m so glad I got them. I can’t wait to get more of the SOTW decks but I’m going to pace myself and enjoy them one at a time. I’m so glad you enjoy my channel, thank you so much ♥️
Your crocheted sunflower is so cool❣️❣️🌻🌻🌻🌻. Your altar is so beautiful and looks lovely for the solstice. It’s been chilly here too. Rainy & cool. My garden is waiting for the warmth‼️‼️
Ahh thank you very much - but I don't think I could do it again if my life depended on it!! Thank you so much for watching and for your lovely comment xx
Hi Alison! Beautiful video and what a lovely altar, full of wonderful things to celebrate summer solstice. Blue is definitely your colour, the top you're wearing looks great and like a summer sky. Your green man is identical to the one i have hanging above my bureau. It was my grannys bureau, over 100 yrs old and use it to house many of my magickal tools. The lift down writing desk will be my solstice altar as my green man hangs above overseeing everything. Yes! 👍Citrine is the same as amethyst. I have jewellery made from Ametrine, which is literally one stone that is half citrine and half amethyst. Love the crochet sunflower brooch, you did a great job creating that. I noticed the hypericum flowering in my garden today so i will definitely be cutting some of that to go on my altar. Blessings to you and to everyone in this wonderful community ❤ x
Ahh thank you so much darling, I’m so glad you enjoyed it - and that you like my dress! I love the sound of your bureau (I’m on the hunt for one myself actually). It will be perfect for your altar! I hope you have a really happy solstice- sending you so much love 🌞♥️xx
Hi Alison your altar looks beautiful! I’m in Perth Western Australia so it’s the winter solstice for me. I’ll be making some thing tomorrow to celebrate even if it’s just some candles.
I have a couple bug hotels as well and Love all our little Mason bees 🐝 ❤ so glad I found your channel recently, so Thankful for all you share with us. Also, found your shop and will be ordering some stuff soon 😊
Hi Bridget! Thank you so much for being here ♥️ I love our little bug hotel, I could spend hours watching the little bees coming and going! It’s lovely to have you here. Have a lovely solstice 🌞♥️xx
Your altar is lovely. It has such a happy energy. So many beautiful things. I have a few of the season of the witch decks and it took me ages to get one.I really dont know why. I havent got the one you have yet. Such a lovely thing to do with your work colleagues. Such a great idea. Your recent purchases you bought for your birthday look wonderful on your altar. Your videos always lift my spirits. Thank you 💕🐝
Hello sweetheart, thank you so much for your kind words. I’m so glad you like my altar. Everyone seems to love the SOTW decks so I’m really looking forward to buying some more! Thank you so much for being here. Have a lovely Solstice 🌞🌞xx
Such a lovely altar, thank you for sharing. I will be doing some small rituals on Summer Solstice. And on Saturday I will be going to a drumming down the Sun ceremony. Have a Blessed Summer Solstice ❤
What a lovely altar! Thank you so much for sharing with us! Im so glad I found your channel. I absolutely love your videos and look forward to seeing one each week! I have the Yule Seasons of the Witch oracle deck and highly recommended it. I love that it incorporates the darkness of winter in winter hues, but also gives very positive messages. The energy surrounding this deck has a good, positive feel to it. My next one will be the Samhain deck! Marcy❤❤
Aaahhh thank you so much Marcy! I do so enjoy making videos for you, I just wish I had time to make more! I’ve been looking at all the other Seasons of the Witch oracles - the Yule one sounds right up my boulevard. Thank you for the recommendation! I’m definitely going to treat myself to the Lammas and Samhain ones I think! It means so much to me that you are here. Thank you so much ☺️ xxx
lovely! that green man statue is gorgeous. this year for summer i’m finally taking full care of my houseplants and herbs, spiritually and all! 😊 i’ve learned so much in the past month, and have goals for next year planting as well! i want to start making some food from home
Your plans sound absolutely wonderful - I wish you good luck with all of them! Thank you so much for watching, I’m happy you love my Green Man - he really is beautiful. Solstice blessings sweetie xxx
I watched your video from your visit to the lost cauldron. I went to my local witchy shop here in the US yesterday and they had the same incense you bought in that video. I was surprised they had it. I bought some and it smells amazing. Love your altar
I have all the SOTW oracle decks and I love them! My favourites are Imbolc and Mabon but they are all lovely. I should be receiving Lammas soon and I can’t wait for Ostara.
Your altar is beautiful, thank you for sharing! I love your shirt too with all the little bees! I don't have anything special planned for the solstice, I still need to decorate my altar.
Firstly thank you Alison for sharing your Altar it's energy is so very warming, just like yours!.. I've ordered the bee 🐝 tarot so I'm looking forward to this arriving. Your seasons of the witch deck looks inviting too. I will simply welcome the Solstice sunrise by the sea. Plain and simple giving thanks for all of the blessings in my life. I also have Antlers naturally shed found on the Scottish hillside. Many blessings and much love to you 🧡
You are so very welcome, it was great fun to share it with you! I’m so excited for you to receive the Bee Tarot - it is going to blow you away! I hope you have a beautiful Solstice by the sea - it sounds absolutely perfect. Thank you so much for your support and kind words - I am so thankful xxx
Great vlog as usual..your altar is so lovely..like you I celebrate some of the years festivals. Only the ones I relate to...I love the darker days and nights so samhan yule are so important to me...I have 3 altars in my home but my main one is dedicated to samhain and yule..your altar is so beautiful...
Thank you so much Julie, I am so glad you liked it. I definitely think that you get most joy out of making altars if you only do what really resonates with you because otherwise it becomes a chore. But I will admit I am already planning my Samhain altar and decorations…I just can’t wait! 🎃💀🧙🪦
Hi Alison, it's my 60th birthday in a couple of weeks and I also purchased the seasons of the witch litha Oracle for my gift to me. I'm going to collect the set too x
Love your altar, thank you! I may shamelessly steal some ideas - some flowers and herbs from the garden would be nice, along with a couple of Tarot cards. I normally make something like a loaf or biscuits but will probably have to do them the day before due to life stuff etc; but I'll also be giving thanks for all we have. BB and have a fabulous week :) XXX
You can take anything you like from my ideas sweetie! I hope you enjoy putting your altar together, no matter how big or small it ends up being. Solstice blessings to you 🥰🥰
Hi :) I have found your channel today and I have to apologize in advance. You will have a lot of my activity here today as I can't stop binging your content. I am normally silent watcher. I don't leave many comments as I'm watching youtube away from keyboard. I am glad I have got here, I'm staying and I think you are doing fantastic job here. And your craft is beautiful. And your energy too. Well I love it here :D and George is Georgeous I mean Gorgeous 😻😻😻 )O(
Well I am absolutely delighted that you are here - thank you so much for your kind words. I have also told George what you said and he was very flattered 🥰 I really hope I can continue to inspire and entertain you. Thank you so much xx
blessed be and many thanks from my heart, I am crying at the moment as your response touched my very being. Have a GREAT Summer solstice. I will keep learning and visiting my beautiful hawthorn trees, I have heard some have fairies living in them. I hope mine do .
I really hope you find joy and friendship on the wonderful new path you are walking. You are among friends here. Have a blessed Solstice and enjoy being who you really are! Sending you much love xxx
Lovely video I crochet and your sunflower is lovely. I am curious why do you think the antlers were not naturally shed is it because of the end of them? If that makes sense. I do have other seasons of the witch Beltane and my favourite Samhain I have not got your one yet it looks lovely x
Thank you so much, I’m glad you like my sunflower!🌻 Yes I think the antlers were sawn off and I feel really sad about that. But they are here now, I respect them and honour them xx
That’s sad if they were but yes as you say honour them and think of them with the love that you got from the stag. I forgot to say your altar is lovely thank you for sharing Blessed be xx
I love your altar. I just got the Litha deck as well because I realized I don't have many 'summer' type decks. It is lovely, but I haven't yet worked it into my regular practice.
Hello Alison I love your altar, it's beautiful and has such warmth and vibrancy! I'd like to ask a question please. When setting out an altar and placing items in the north, south, east and west positions, do you need a compass to find these positions in the geographical sense or is it more to do with how the items look to the eye on the altar itself. I hope that makes sense, thank you so much.
That's so kind Tracey, thank you! As far as the directions go, that's a great question! When I am creating Sacred Space outside, I always use the actual directions according to a compass (well actually I use my Witchy Weathervane which is set according to the compass points). When I'm setting up an altar indoors, I am not quite as picky and I will just say that North is directly at the top of the altar, for example. I think as long as you are clear about your intent when you are setting your altar up, it's all good. I hope this helps! 🌻
Thank you, this is very helpful! It just suddenly occurred to me if it made a difference or if the energies of each direction were needed to empower the intentions, I'm learning so much from you and always look forward to your videos 💚
very kind things you have said . May I ask a strange question, I was hoping for a ravens feather and thought I might give it to a friend. but I am feeling greedy and want to keep it for myself, The ravens sent one today in my driveway. Do you think it would be wrong to keep it for myself.. I do not want to upset anyone. I did not tell my friend about it. But did think it very strange they should send one today as I was thinking about it. colleen
I’m absolutely delighted that you are here and you are so welcome. My sole aim is to inspire people who might not be very confident and if I can do that, I will be really happy xx
A confused witch/pagan For 50 yrs was born again christian, then I saw the light. I am having trouble am I a witch or pagan I have several hawthorn trees on my farm I try to visit daily,they cleanse my spirit. How do you decide or can we be both? Colleen in Canada sorry to be off topic
Hello Colleen, You are anything you want to be and you do not have to define yourself if you don’t want to! You can absolutely be a Witch and Pagan - I would be willing to bet that most of us sit under that particular umbrella. Paganism is any belief which sits outside the ‘accepted’ belief systems. I know it’s all a bit overwhelming. Spend some time with your beautiful hawthorns just letting yourself ‘be.’ You are going to be absolutely fine and this lovely little community will support you, I’m sure xxx
I always LOVE seeing your home! Its vibes are soooooo peaceful. You’re truly a powerful, bright, wonderful witch! 🧙🏽 Keep inspiring the Earth with yourself, your home and your witchy insights. 💜💜💜
Oh sweetheart you just made my day. Thank you so much for your lovely words. I just want to inspire people to be the Witches they want to be, without fear or worry. If I can keep doing that, I will be happy. Solstice blessings to you darling xxx
Such a beautiful altar, Alison! Thank you🌼🍃💕

When I am creating Sacred Space outside, I always use the actual directions according to a compass (well actually I use my Witchy Weathervane which is set according to the compass points). When I'm setting up an altar indoors, I am not quite as picky and I will just say that North is directly at the top of the altar, for example. I think as long as you are clear about your intent when you are setting your altar up, it's all good. I hope this helps! 🌻
Thank you, this is very helpful! It just suddenly occurred to me if it made a difference or if the energies of each direction were needed to empower the intentions, I'm learning so much from you and always look forward to your videos 💚
@traceyshea2559 it was a great question! And you’re very welcome! 💕
very kind things you have said . May I ask a strange question, I was hoping for a ravens feather and thought I might give it to a friend. but I am feeling greedy and want to keep it for myself, The ravens sent one today in my driveway. Do you think it would be wrong to keep it for myself..
I do not want to upset anyone. I did not tell my friend about it. But did think it very strange they should send one today as I was thinking about it.

I think that you were meant to find the feather for yourself. Your friend didn't know anything about it so you can't possibly hurt them! Enjoy it xx
Hi! New subscriber here. I am very new to all of this and very interested in learning through you.

A confused witch/pagan
For 50 yrs was born again christian, then I saw the light.
I am having trouble am I a witch or pagan
I have several hawthorn trees on my farm I try to visit daily,they cleanse my spirit.
How do you decide or can we be both?

sorry to be off topic
Hello Colleen,
You are anything you want to be and you do not have to define yourself if you don’t want to! You can absolutely be a Witch and Pagan - I would be willing to bet that most of us sit under that particular umbrella. Paganism is any belief which sits outside the ‘accepted’ belief systems. I know it’s all a bit overwhelming. Spend some time with your beautiful hawthorns just letting yourself ‘be.’ You are going to be absolutely fine and this lovely little community will support you, I’m sure xxx
I always LOVE seeing your home! Its vibes are soooooo peaceful. You’re truly a powerful, bright, wonderful witch! 🧙🏽 Keep inspiring the Earth with yourself, your home and your witchy insights. 💜💜💜
Oh sweetheart you just made my day. Thank you so much for your lovely words. I just want to inspire people to be the Witches they want to be, without fear or worry. If I can keep doing that, I will be happy. Solstice blessings to you darling xxx
