good stuff my friend:)

as you said an altar is a very personal thing so i wanted to just add how mine is situated;

it is in the middle of the room because of the nature of ceremonial magic one needs to circumnavigate the temple.
it faces the east for the rising sun.
the elemental implements are dagger-fire wand-air chalice-water pantacle-earth;
also a censer for incense burning.

It is a great post.

I actually have three. That might sound like over kill, but when I grew close to my Patron, that altar just grew into a place, specifically for dealing with him.
The second works much the same for another.
The third, is where I ended up doing my actual crafting. lol

Wonderful post hun.
I love using a black mirror on mine along with the other stuff and elemental representational stuff- i,e chalice, athame, incense, pentacle, etc.
I got that idea of a black mirror from Konstantinos, I love his nocturnal witchcraft books.
I recently bought a new baphomet statue, its beautiful, so thats another feature.
But I have to put up and put away a make shift altar each time as my kids would mash up everything on it.

I keep all of my magickal supplies, on the three shelves above my altar.
And Vay,I don't think it is an overkill. Having an altar dedicated to a specific patron is a sign of devotion, and is to be admired.
