We had to share our Bast Deluxe Altar Kit with you! Bast is goddess of cats, and protects them vehemently. Like a mother defending her young, her wrath knows no bounds when her charges are threatened. She is also known as a goddess of life and joy, as well as a guardian of women. She will offer unmatched protection to those she favors. She is also associated with dancing, music, sex and pleasure. Although a defender of Re the sun god, she became associated with the Moon, and with Pleasure, Music and Dance. The oils and incense in this kit are specially chosen to honor Bastet. Bast appeared to us 3 years ago and asked us to take in a kitten our vet had found. At the time, we thought we had enough cats and were not going to take her.... until Bast appeared. We picked up the black kitten, named her "Witchy One" and she enriched our lives. Thanks be to Goddess Bast, Temple Guardian, Protectress of all she surveys and guide to the mysteries.

Ritual Athame - Athames are used in most magickal~spiritual paths. An athame is normally a double-sided blade. Leave it plain, decorate it, paint and carve symbols in the wood handle. Represents the Element of Air and Direction of East.

Natural selenite crystal Light wand, shaped by Mother Gaia! These are often referred to as "light wands" because of their ability to conduct and absorb light. These crystal wands average about 1/4 to 3/8 inch square and range from about 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 inches in length. These crystal wands are naturally split and not finished, so the energy is natural and has not been altered by tools or acid. Selenite can be used to access past lives and future lives by rubbing the wand with a finger or thumb while the meditative state is attained. The visual images will begin. Selenite is also believed to aid in the acquisition of materialistic pursuits related to business, provide clarity of mind and expand awareness.
Magick Wands have been used for thousands of years and are still used today in Spiritual Ways: by calling upon deities to be within a Ceremony; drawing the magick circle creating your sacred space; directing energies - the energy is released in the direction the Magick Wand is pointed; and for healing - to draw negative energy from the dis-eased body.
