The Build Altars website & Moon Tips newsletter were born in the Spring of 2005. It is my intention that this website not only inspire folks to build altars and create their own rituals of art & magic but recognize that within themselves and their uniqueness lies their connection to the Divine Mystery and the path to their greatest happiness. So mote it be!
I’m New Here!
If this is your first time visiting Build Altars, welcome! I’m Heather Bleasdell and I’m so glad you are here – not just here on this website, but here on Earth. We need you and your gifts. Your contribution is vitally important. I know it is not always easy to be in this incarnation, but remember this: the path to your success can be found within your heart’s desires and your willingness to be just who you are. I understand that life can feel confusing at times and you don’t always know what choice to make or direction to head in, but don’t lose hope. There are others, just like you – lots of them, all around you – Humans are everywhere. But rather than identifying with the Human Race, let’s claim our right to be on the Human Journey.
Really, I get it. I know how tough it is to be a fair-witness to our own journeys, to be friendly towards our creative process, to read our own inner compass from a neutral place and allow our Wisdom Voice to speak without interference. The shouting, whining, threatening voices of our Insufficiency/Not-Good-Enough can keep us bogged down in our limiting beliefs, old pattens, negative self-talk and habits of over-thinking. That’s what I’m here for – to be a compassionate, strait-talking, down-to-earth, neutral, light worker… consulting you on your own Intuitive Voice. Let me share my gifts with you. Hook yourself up – let it be easy.
Offerings for 3 Types of People
1.) If you need one-on-one attention, I offer Intuitive Consulting Sessions via phone. This kind of work is transformational on every level, plus it’s fun. If you are curious, check the Client Comments or FAQs page. If you would like to take a bigger step and want to meet with me In-Person (Petaluma, CA), I offer private VIP Transformational Retreats, and Expressive Art Sessions. These sessions are longer and involve process-based art-making. Because of my schedule, I can only offer a few of these sessions a month, so email me to make an appointment. If you are planning a ritual such as a Wedding, Wedding Shower, Baby Naming or Blessing Way or would like to build an altar for yourself or a goup, consider Altar & Ritual Consulting with me. I have lots of ideas and resources to share, but most importantly, I am really good at getting to the heart of what really wants to happen.
2.) If you are someone how likes to hang out for a while and check out the scene before diving in, by all means, please do. (I’m this type of person.) Sign up for our private, free Moon Tips bi-monthly e-mailer for tips on utilizing the energy available on the New & Full Moons each month. You can also check out our blog and subscribe to it via email or RSS feed (see right side-bar). Each week we have new posts by different art & magic makers sharing their stories, wisdom and process, along with practical & magical posts on how to embrace your life and feel good doing it. You can also get a “heads up” by liking us on Facebook.
3.) Finally, if you are just passing through, check out a few pages if you have time before you surf off. We have great information here on Building an Altar, creating your own Ritual, how to start a Morning Routine that will change your life, hand-made gifts to support your personal practice and lots of resource links and recommendations to inspire your creativity and magic. You are welcome to join us anytime, in whatever capacity feels good to you. Be Well!
