Sacred Space
Since ancient times people have been creating their own sacred space everything from churches, temples, pyramids, and cathedrals to a basic altar built out of a tree stump in the heart of a forest. I wonder the reason for us doing this? I guess that it makes us feel closer to the divine, deity, God or Goddess.
The fact is, creating such sacred places and proceeding to use them for such happenings as prayer, and mediation actually raises the vibrations of that space. So after continual use, it becomes much easier to make the connection, because our vibrations are immediately elevated to harmonise the place we are working in. You have more than likely noticed these vibrations or energies when you stepped into a church or temple.
It really is easy to create your own sacred space at home.......you possibly have unconsciously already created one!
Choose a specific and distinctive place in your home, in which others will not disturb. If possible make it somewhere that you are able to also meditate and/or prayer. You can use a table, shelf, a bedside table.....whatever feels "right' for you.
Decorate your sacred place with things that mean something special to you. Here are some examples of what you could use...crystals, flowers, candles, affirmation cards, plants, incense, figurines, photos etc. It is your sacred space make it your own.
If you unable to have a permanent sacred space in your home, you can devise a portable sacred space. Select a container or box and fill it with the things that you would put on your sacred space. Keep this box some place safe and then when you feel a need to prayer or meditate, just bring it out and set it up.
Spiritually as you grow and change so will your sacred space.
It is lovely to have a space that is sacred between you and the Divine.
