Morwenna
I never heard that expression in that context either, and I'm of Griz's generation too.
But all this sounds like so much fun! I've been a renter all my life, so there's nothing I could ever do that wasn't portable; and now there's just too much stuff for the two of us and we have rooms in professional storage facilities because we need them! So I've done all my readings at home on the bed. I've never read for anyone else in our home.
But it doesn't stop me from dreaming! I would absolutely love having a space to read regularly, and to do rituals, in an atmosphere that sings to me.
For myself I would want a square table, because I'm rather fond of large spreads, and the curvature of a round table would hinder me. And I'm of the blue-and-purple persuasion usually, but I see uses for other colors as well. I would probably stay with neutral walls so I could change colors of fabrics and accoutrements according to the mood, the season--or the deck.
Good luck, and keep us posted!
