Sacred Space heals
November 28, 2011Art can create sacred space for you.
Sacred space is visionary space, it is non-ordinary reality.
It is space that is full of meaning, pregnant with power.
It is space that has similar characteristics so that each practitioner who creates it usually does similar things.
The sacred space itself calls to them and tells them what to do.
The ritual is dictated from the space, not the space from the ritual.
Sacred space is connected to your own story of what is meaningful.
If you were to walk on a road and found a rock it might be an impediment and be moved away with annoyance.
If you were told it was the rock Buddha sat on for his vision and you were a Buddhist it would be the most sacred space, a place of pilgrimage full of meaning.
When you create sacred space, you find the objects that are most meaningful to you, you bring in light and air, you clean and arrange with love.
You make the place a place of love, light, healing energy and beauty.
Each person’s sacred space is their own, deeply tied to personal meaning, the common threads are beauty, cleanliness, meaningful objects and careful arrangement.
Altars are common to most sacred space.
They vary by tradition and content.
Sacred space is made alive by prayer and visioning.
It is empty without the spirit that infuses it with healing power.
