My religion is a mix of a few different Pagan paths and Buddhism. If this sort of thing bothers you, please hit the back button now and go find another thread to read. I'd rather not check this thread and have top scroll through posts expressing distaste, disagreement or hatred of my beliefs; I've seen it on other sites quite often and I'd rather not be on the business end of that sort of thing. I came here because I've been unable to find anything through web searches and this is the only site I frequent that has a high level of mature people, high activity and little to no drama. Please don't let me down
MOVING ON!!!
My exact religion I'd like to keep a secret because it's not one that is highly accepted so let's just assume for all intensive purposes that I'm a generic Pagan. I have, what basically amounts to, a guardian spirit. I have no idea how long he's been with me but he introduced himself to me several years ago in a dream. Later, I did a web search using what I remembered about him in said dream. I didn't expect to find anything but instead, I found a detailed description and pictures of this man that fit him exactly. I'm a skeptical person by nature so I ignored him for the longest time until several days ago.
I was running way late and had about 20 minutes to drive somewhere that usually takes 30 minutes on average. I was sat at a stoplight, looked at the clock and saw that I had less than 10 minutes to drive 3 miles through traffic and stoplights, park in the parking lot, walk to the building and into my room (it's a decent sized college campus so the walk alone takes 3 minutes IF you get a good spot) and I was in the turn lane with a bunch of cars ahead of me. Now I'll admit what I did next was a bad idea but I did it and it's done. I called my guardian by name and said "If you can get me to class in time, I'll owe you one favor of your choosing."
I expected 1 of 2 things to happen:
1) I'm late thus suggesting that I'm crazy and my "guardian" is just in my head
2) I arrive just in time at the hour, on the nose so it could be luck
I got there with 2 minutes to spare and no, I didn't speed. I did the speed limit and stayed in my lane as usual (I drive like an old woman so I have no clue how I got there that fast). I'm still skeptical as to whether I got there early on my own or with his help, but I feel funny not upholding the bargain because I'm not sure...
...which bring me to the reason of this post. He wants an altar. I have no clue how to make one, what to put on it, where to put it, what to do with it, etc. I want to make something to his liking but it's really hard to get his constant input when he's not a physical being next to me that I can talk openly with. It's not like I can go to the store and say "Oh (name) do you like this? No? Ok how about this?" I'm worried that he won't like the end result or that I'll do something wrong. . .
