Wicca Altar Litha Midsummer
Litha (also called Mid-Summer) is the celebration of the Summer solstice. The longest day and the shortest night of the year. It's a time of
Happy Litha, Witches! I hope your day is filled with light and happiness. I set up my altar a couple of days ago and finally got to pull out the sun plaque I bought back in March from the Dollar Tree. I have a Sun and Moon one as well that I plan to use on an altar later in the year, probably on an equinox. Litha or Midsummer Solstice celebrates the Sun's peak in strength when it appears to hang still in the heavens. For colors I focused on yellows, oranges, reds, and golds, masculine colors and the color of fire and light. Lets start on the left side which is the Eastern side of my altar (my altar faces South). I have some cinnamon incense which combines an herb of the Sun with fire, making it the perfect representation of the Sun rising in the East. Next to the incense is my statue of Mother Earth, who represents the feminine. She is next to the incense because the Sun rises over the Earth, or appears to due to the Earth's planetary movements. Next I have an array of candles and lanterns. The lights and flame represent fire, light, and thus the Sun. Litha is the longest day of the year and the Sun is at its peak, making a number of candles very fitting on any Midsummer altar. Next to the candles is a solstice incense I picked up from a local herb shop at the Renaissance Festival this year. It doesn't say what it contains, but based on the smell I am certain cinnamon is included. Like the candles, incense use fire, making it useful for representing the Sun. In the middle is a mix of flowers including sunflowers and white and yellow daisies. The sunflowers with their yellow color represent the Sun and happiness while the daisies represent joy and lust. The horn, which first appeared on my Beltane altar, represents the masculine. You can't have a Midsummer altar without honoring the masculinity of the Sun. Behind the horn is ivy, a symbol of health and abundance, represents the lush greenery characteristic of this time of year. Trees, shrubs, and plants are full and green by the end of June. Finally, on the far right, which is the western side of the altar, I have a glass terrarium. Glass combines the elements of fire and earth, thus representing the Sun setting in the west. I kept the terrarium empty at this time because I did not have any small plants on hand that I felt would work with this particular altar. Maybe next year. In front of everything are four crystals: amber, malachite, red calcite, and bloodstone. Amber, according to ancient myths, are tears of the Sun. Its golden yellow color represents not only the Sun but strength and courage as well. The malachite represents abundance and protection. The red calcite represents strength, while the bloodstone represents health. The reds and yellows of these stones go with the summer theme. Finally my beautiful Sun plaque. Sitting in the center of the altar, it pulls the entire set up together, showing that everything revolves around the Sun. I hope everyone enjoys the Sunlight today. Get outside, eat good food, and spend time enjoying the Sun's day of power with family.
Getting ready for my favorite Sabbat of the year.
Im letzten Blogpost habe ich euch schon etwas über die acht Jahreskreisfeste erzählt, die mich zu den Traditionen und Bräuchen der Nachtwelt inspiriert haben. Da am Sonntag (21. Juni) traditionell Litha gefeiert wird, wollte ich mit euch teilen, wie die Hexen aus den Witch’s World Büchern diese Sommersonnenwende feiern.Achtung: Auch wenn ich mich an den heidnischen Festen und den damit verbundenen Traditionen orientiert habe, weicht das Litha der Nachtwelt in manchen Teilen davon ab.

Litha is coming. With the warming of the Earth and the blooming of flowers comes the reminder that we rely on the Sun for all that we do. Now is the time to give thanks to Sun gods for their protection and energy.
