An altar is a sacred, dedicated space where individuals honor and connect with a specific deity or multiple deities. This altar serves as a focal point for worship, offerings, meditation, prayer, and rituals, and it is often personalized based on the deity's attributes, symbolism, and the practitioner's spiritual tradition.
 
For centuries, witch balls have been used to protect and bless with a specific intention when hung over doorways, windows or even on altars. Each ball contains a combination of herbs, flowers, and crystals over a bed of moss that correspond to the ball's intention.
