The Altar Within was written for someone else, not for me- but as a devoted practitioner at my own altar I'm absolutely dazzled that someone covered this topic. Juliet offers personal experience of coming to herself after years of dismissal, and her prompts are sure to inspire personal introspection for a budding self-worshipping witch.

This book has great bones and was a helpful read, but I found the overall tone distracting. However, despite that, I really appreciated the varied advice throughout this book and do feel it is helpful in cultivating a better relationship with the self. Juliet Diaz’s advice helps bring intention to self care and self nurturance, while also placing proper respect on our place in community. This book’s emphasis on care without toxic individualism makes it a valuable read for those looking to heal their relationships with themselves and/or up their self care practices. I appreciate the author wanting a friendly approach, but could have done without the unnecessary hashtags and besties/BFFs. I also noticed the use of feminine pronouns when referencing the divine self, which I feel is limiting considering the information of this book is useful to all genders.

Listened to the audiobook and am on the hunt for a personal copy. So many things I wrote down and definitely didn't get them all.

A radiant and extremely helpful read. I was looking for a book that spoke more to valuing, caring for, and rewarding oneself with more of a spiritual vibe and this fit the bill. So much so, that my mother (a devout Christian) found this book to be incredibly helpful to her on her journey to self-discovery and self-love.
