Our Lady of Guadalupe

[open_space]

Before I get back to the States I wanted to complete a project that has been long in my mind, a shrine to Our Lady of Guadalupe. I didn't know where to place her nor what was the traditional way. Since I am by no means a traditional Christian not least because I am a polytheist occultist I ended up following a Mexican tradition of placing her near a water source so the top of my parents garden fountain is her new abode. The difference in the place is palpable and I am eager to finish the consecration process tonight.

Hail Mary full of grace
The Lord is with you
Blessed are you amongst women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us faithful
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
