“My altar is a quiet place off my bedroom. Because it’s east-facing, this room receives morning light, bringing with it the sunrise and the hope of each new day. I’ve balanced the room by incorporating elements of nature. A two-tiered dresser houses my altar. On the central lower level of the dresser, I’ve placed a marble vessel with water and a fresh flower and a candle. Higher up, a yin-yang wooden candleholder holds two candles, reminding me of life’s polarities and the power of choice, balance, and harmony. I light these candles to symbolically activate these principles in my daily life.”
