You can wear crystals and carry sage and a lighter in your bag, you can put Sigils in your shoes or the pockets of your coats and jackets, you could wear certain colors and perfumes/colognes, you could take a private space and declare it yours for a little while so you can pray or journal, or whatever you want to do.
    So yeah, just be your own alter if nothing else works. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    I just noticed you liked jasmine incense! I love jasmine too but for different reasons. In Indonesian culture its believed that if you were to smell jasmine at night it's a friendly spirit passing by. So jasmine is seen as symbolic of spirits and overall connecting with spirits.
    However jasmine also related to the western idea of love and attraction and jasmine is often used on headdresses and hairstyles for women in Indonesian weddings

    yay, I love this! My travel altar is a fancy decorative box from Michael's that was on sale, it's about the size of the purple box, and I bought a separate lock and key mechanism that I just screwed into the cardboard of the box, and it now locks up and I keep the keys separately with me at all times. Lol, very Scorpio rising of me, but I love it because even with that size, I can fit tarot cards in there, runes, candles, chalk, paper, etc etc. I have SO much stuff in that one, and it's so nice for times like when I travel to the beach, etc. I actually just keep it in my car with me so I have it every day at work as well. The creative in me really loves stuff like this, because I can make so many diff versions, and change it up. I had another box I had glued a mirror on the inside to, bought little mirror pieces from the craft store. :) Love it!

    I love the idea of drawing sigils into the covers (or on paper that fits into the covers) of the travel altar!
    My altar. This isn't really a travel altar, but since I live in a college dorm and have to move regularly and periodically take my stuff home, I have a system where all of my discreet (more crafts-y) stuff goes into a shoebox, while the more obviously witchy things go into my backpack. If I am strategic about placement, I can fit a surprising amount in a pencil case and the rest goes into the bottom of the backpack and gets covered by books and electronics. Most of my sabbat dorm decor can pass as normal seasonal dorm decor, and the rest is mostly stuff from nature, which I dispose of every couple sabbats anyway.
    While I love the shoebox idea, it can get problematic for me because my family might wonder why I'm so attached to an old shoebox and maybe even peek into it! This is why I mostly just keep things I'm okay with my family looking at in the shoebox, and the rest stays on my person (a.k.a. the backpack).
    After a move-in, I take everything out and set things up as best as I can. It's working wonderfully right now, as I have a spare desk at my disposal, but it might be more problematic in the autumn, when I won't have the luxury of so much space for my witchy work. Eh, I'll figure something out.

    I have used my IPad as a travel alter, I use crystals to tune it, ProCreate to paint it, notes to write digital petitions, music to brings in life and vibration, and again something physical to ground it (I have small flat charged stones in my protective case), it is really easy and straightforward. Just don’t forget to tune your machines and chargers any other time, you don’t want them to go out of tune and go all cranky and less protective.

    This was very insightful and helpful. A word of advice.... keep your black candle wrapped in tissue paper, if you're going to store it in your altar. Black absorbs energy around it. The candle will deplete the energy of the items around it unless it is covered away from them.

    This video is 10/10 I’ve been referring to it every now and than because travel alters are so specific that watching a video about them help my get some grasp on tracking the changes in my alter. This is a good reference source and I’ll definitely keep referring to it every other time

    I have a mini altoids tin thats like a happy/positivity/good luck box.♡ It has shells, catholic medals, irish rosary, etc. But on top when you open it, a fortune fits perfectly over it all. It says "there are plenty of promises and hope floating around you" So I carry this in my purse when I'm anxious or travelling. 🥰
    I definitely would recommend putting fortunes you get that really stick with you into spells and altars!!♡
    Then I have a pretty box thats more like an altar. It has protection symbols (shells, acorns, etc.) It contains my empty spell jars on one side & ashes of someone important. Too sad to say who rn tho. Almost their bday, so I'll probably use the altar that day. Otherwise I look in it when sad and try to keep it dusted off.
    But its nice cuz then the box protects the ashes from cats and kids. I keep it by my bed. (I kinda gotta be inconspicuous, because people are cool with it until their not. So i prefer to be private 🤣)

    I live on a boat, so I keep everything in a vintage picnic basket I found. My house moves A LOT as the tides change and waves move etc. So I can't leave anything out that could fall over, and I don't have space to have a dedicated altar out all the time. The picnic basket is a cute and low key way to take it on hikes with me too!

      @nimedhel09 4 года назад +7

      I'm also starting on my journey. So far, what I've done is watch a freaking lot of beginner-friendly videos (like this channel), and researched, researched, researched.
      I've first researched the different types of practices and beliefs (Wicca and the different neo-pagans movements, the different kinds of magick, etc.), and then went from there to research the subjects I was more interested in.
      I got myself an amazingly beautiful tarot deck that I love (and apparently, we're vibing together, because my readings so far have been super accurate :o ), and then decided to join my love of teas with a more spiritual approach (no active craft yet, just researching until I'm comfortable enough), and the pull I have towards some crystals since I've been very young (so, again, researching the different crystals, their use, etc., but I'm definitely getting some stones that have been calling to me soon, lol).
      So yeah, my advice: research as much as you can and want, find the subjects that interest you, research some more, then baby steps towards a more active practice.

    I have a travel witch kit in a little tin that once held danish butter cookies. Birthday candles, lighter, tealight cup, little jar of banishing powder, another of rosemary, protection charm, and to-go packets of salt, pepper, and sugar. Like you, I generally only use it when I'm going out of town for an extended period, and I may add items like crystals or anointing oil or cord for knot magic depending on what I think I might need. The tin fits easily into my travel bag. I'm very used to doing witchcraft with whatever I have on hand, but it's nice to have the reassurance of some go-to items, just in case.

    Carlos has a freakin' awesome travel altar...! You had some really good suggestions, and I like the way you were able to pitch travel altars as another avenue for personal creativity.
    I also have to admit that as soon as the shoebox was on-camera, I had a vision of a woman clawing her way through her closet: "Guccis... Jimmys... Blahniks... dammit, it's here somewhere... more Loubutins... where did I put it?!?"

    I don't have a travel altar because I don't travel very much... if at all... but I have this tiny box made of painted soapstone that I put a purple candle, a rose quartz necklace, a tiger eye stone, and a feather in, and I dedicated it to an old friend, just as a little bit of insurance that they would have some safety. Then two years later I had to cut contact with them because they had become extremely abusive, so I really need to cleanse that box and its contents. I might make a travel altar so I can do some work outside this spring. Thank you for this video, it just popped up in my recommended and it reminded me how much I love doing witchcraft.

    I have a small travel alter in an altoids tin as well and haven't really got to use it outside the house much as its been too cold but in the summer I plan to use it for trips, camping, or going on little adventures. I love how you can always change it out of you need to and really have to be detailed on what you do and don't choose to bring with.
    In mine I was able to fit:
    + small crystals chips in a recycled small glitter container(might need to replace it though as its not the best)
    + a small velvet sachet
    + some babies breath
    + some birthday candles
    + need to add matches!(I love the incense ones you have!)
    + a small pendulum chain to add a ring I'm wearing onto
    + a small flower of life Crystal charging board
    + a mini two sided pendulum board
    + rocks with all 4 elements on them
    + two tumbled crystals
    + and maybe something else I forgot I added haha I'm just going off memory
    So a lot can fit into that little thing!

    I used a makeup bag to house my travel tools. I had some bags that weren't being used and it is easy to grab and go without being overt. It also kind of looks like a clutch style purse, so it is something that I can carry around my family, who I am not out of the broom closet with, and they not say anything. It is something that I can also grab if I want to do a ritual outside.

    I have a little tin kind of in between the size of your altoids tin and the little black box that you have and it's great! I have a small piece of amethyst, turquoise and tigers eye in it, two little birthday candles, a salt pot and some ash, a ring from my grandmother and tiny little stones with the elements painted on them :) I stuck a match lighter on the side and it's just a great little box since I can't practise with a lot of things !! I swap around salt and ash with herbs sometimes but it's such a versatile tool !

    Interesting concept. Setting up an altar just came to me as something I need / want to do. Could have cared less before, but trying listen to my gut more lately.

    In my travel altar, I use birthday candles (4 earth,water,air, fire) small bottle charms, small smooth stone versions of my crystals (ex: small smooth rose quartz stone, big size is size of my hand💜) cone incense, and I do have a white tea light candle, and some beads, charms, safety pins, a feathers dream catcher, and a sea shell bracelet. And a small black cloth with some white chalk, a small jar of egg shell if I’m doing something outside. Small jar of salt for inside work, I have hand made elder runes with white clay and a black sharpie. The box is 6”x3”x4”. But it works for me and amazing fits everything🤗 I’m an eclectic witch, I believe in multiple things but always stick to being selfless even if it hurts😢💜💜
