There are times when I feel that I need to escape the world around me. The busy energy of the year, the technology that expands and binds, the hurried energy of time. Having a place to breathe is just as important as the action of breathing.
What is sacred space?
Sacred space can be any place where you decide to meet the divine. Sacred space can also be that place deep within your being that holds your energy and light. Sacred space is the rest stop on our busy highways.
Sacred space can be a room, a park, a bench, etc. I typically have a few different places that I can duck into around my work place that I can retreat to for a bit to find balance. There is a wonderful fountain, and I sit and watch the water. Just being present in that space makes it sacred.
If you are at home, you can make your space sacred by adding statues, incense, or whatever else connects you to your divine self. Invite the divine into this space with you. Allow yourself to be creative, even if you don’t have a lot of space you can still created a sacred corner. When I first started connecting to my higher vibrations, I used an old shoe box with a bandana on it as my altar. I had a few candles, a couple of stones, and my tarot deck. Sacred space is uniquely yours.
Mentally you can also create sacred spaces. Visualizing a harmonious environment, seeing temple, or entering into the void can bring peace both internally and externally.
Where do you find sacred space? What is sacred space to you?
