Such amazing altars to represent the various aspects of the aspects of Advent. As a Christopagan, recently "out" with my fully Roman Catholic family, I find your site a place a refuge. For me, the altars display an open yearning, an experience of light,almost a fasting of space. Of course Advent is all about fasting, waiting, making space, finding our light. Advent is not about waiting for "little baby Jesus". Jesus came over 2000 years ago. We are celebrating the incarnation of the Universal Christ- The Archetype of Creation. The light of all. Our light within and without. For this we celebrate. Happy Holidays. Blessed Yule Blessed Be!
