Tis i, back with more questions

1. I can't do incense bc of family, is there something I can use instead?
2. Altar, do I need one and how do I make a hidden one that won't alert family?
3. Salt lines?

~candles~

cool shelf with your rocks and a 'candle collection' and/or little vases with dried/fresh flowers. i have lavender in a vase in my room, dried, and something like that is totally inconspicuous

i've never used them or needed to, and if i'm right in thinking lines of salt for protection, just draw sigils on rocks in candle wax, or trace them! then put em around like lil totems

1. Oil diffuser, scented candles. I also couldn't use incense for a while bc my dorm had sensitive smoke detectors
2. Not necessarily, everyone is different in their practice. I personally kind of use my windowsill as an altar of sorts, but it really just looks aesthetic to anyone just looking in. Other people probably have different advice. I think some people have like movable altars they keep in boxes, that sort of thing.
3. Not my cup of tea, I'll leave that question to someone else

oh mobile altars are a great idea! and you can even just place your altar items around the room and pass them as decoration, and then scootch them together when you know it's safe to do so!

Thanks for the info, guys! I was mostly asking about salt lines bc I was unsure about them lmao, but thanks for the advice about altars and such :)

Another question:
Moonwater. To make, all I gotta do is put water in a jar and leave it under the full moon, yes? And it would work through, say, a window? I don't need to put it outside? What can I use it for, after making it? Do I just. chug it, or what?
oops that was five, not one, oh well

I've been making mine through a window, so I hope that's correct lol
I use it to water my plants mostly, but I know there are a lot of other uses.
I hadn't thought of this one, but I'm gonna ask a question here… could you use moon water to brew tea?

technically you can literally just put it in moonlight any phase, though different phases are believed to have different like. effects. some spells are suggested to be done under certain phases, for example. it should work through a window, i don't see why it wouldn't?

spells! make your tea or hot cocoa with it! drink it and vibe! sprinkle it on plants to make them happy!

I hadn't thought of this one, but I'm gonna ask a question here… could you use moon water to brew tea?

you make the rules and i say heck yeah. i don't see why not, it's still blessed even with tea leaves in it

I bet it's even better for like tea leaf reading. Idk why I never thought of that before honestly.

:D cool! I don't think I can do tea, since my mom would be like "why aren't you just using tap water" lmao but neat! Thanks!
