Welcome to the Creating a Sacred Space module.
You can watch the video first or read the chapter below depending on your learning style.
Time required : 30 mins - 1 hour
PURPOSE - TO CREATE A SPACE/PLACE TO CONNECT WITH HIGHER SELF
NEED - Cushion or chair to sit - candle - incense - pen - paper
Where ? create an altar inside or outside in nature
What ? use a small table - chair - crate - tree stump
Why ? To create a space to connect within - to divine
SMUDGE SELF FIRST - use sage, or your favourite incense.
Honor 4 directions - Mother Earth - Father Sky
This is not religious in any way just calling on strong energy of deities that have been used for centuries. It works trust me!!!!
Our guides/the universe will only help us when we ask them to - SO ASK LOUDLY WITH FEELING.
Call on and get statues/ pictures of Deities that represents your focus for example:
Buddha statue - focus of meditation - calm and peace
Animal totem - focus Owl for inner wisdom
Arch Angel Micheal - focus - courage - strength - protection
Ganesha - focus - clearing away obstacles
Lakshmi - focus - abundance
Earth- crystal
Fire - incense
Air - feather
Water - a cup, sea shell
Spirit - a candle
Cloth to contain the boundaries of the altar
To do at your altar -- Empower a goal - meditate - chant - send light to others - connect with guides - pray- write a letter to the Angels - Acknowledge Seasons - honor ancestors or a loved one.
Energy follows Intention & thoughts.
TASK:
Write a letter to your higher self - Angels - Deity asking for assistance with whatever you are intending to manifest.
For example:
Dear Angels, Higher self, Universe, could you please help me to gain more clarity about my purpose, who am I ? Why am I here ?
or
Could you please assist me to gain more inner peace and calm?
or
Could you please help me with my business?
Whatever you can imagine the Universe will support you with.
Always say for the highest good of all concerned.
Give thanks and Love xx
You can have a personal altar but also a family altar - where the children join in and meditate and empower their prayers/wishes for themselves and the family.
Be amazed how how quickly magic and miracles unfold when you really commit to connecting to the higher powers that are in and around you
CHANT THE GAYATRI MANTRA TO RAISE YOUR VIBRATION AS OFTEN AS YOU CAN IT IS THE MOST ANCIENT MANTRA - WITH INCREDIBLY HIGH VIBES
WHICH IS WHAT WE WANT IN ORDER TO CONNECT TO OUR HIGHER SELF.
