From the questions to think on in The Circle Within by Dianne Sylvan...
How much thought have you given to your personal path and why do you do things the way you do? Have you been running purely on instinct, following books by the letter or a combination of the two? Does your altar face east for a particular reason or because a book said it should?
I use a combination of book knowledge and instinct in my practice. After looking at information in the books, I decide what I agree and disagree with and move on. Even some of the spells that I have found in books or online I have added my own personal flair to.
Our altar faces North during ritual because that makes sense to me. I start calling the corners in the East because that is the standard and it makes sense. When I use the Family of the Healing Waters ritual standard, we call the particular angels because they best embody the directions.
