Spiritual Awakening: Finding A Sacred Place!!!

            I was watching the replay of Graig Sager’s ESPY speech when he was talking about how he found a special place on his walk from his cancer treatment. The special space was the toy train set. He said he would stop and simply watch the train set and it lifted his spirits. As he spoke about his special place I began to think of how important it is to have a sacred place to help stay centered, focused, and grounded. Through out our lives we will have many memories of special places that we hold as sacred spaces that allow us to gain clarity and thus become action takers. I remember that I found a special place when I was in the Philippines serving as a U.S. Peace Corps Volunteer. The sacred spot was a spot on the beach where I had many opportunities to be of service and value but most importantly it was a spot where I could write and reflect and stay connected to source. It was at this spot where I began to understand the importance of being spiritually aware and awoke. There were many a day that I simply took a jeepney ride to this spot to get away from any worries. After visiting the spot I felt rejuvenated and ready to take on any challenges that would come my way.

This space allowed me to detach from the world for a while  and to come alive so that I could be the change that I wanted to see in the world. When I returned home from The Philippines I was able to hold the memories of the lessons learned in this sacred space so that I could continue to grow personally, professionally, and spiritually. When I returned home I spent time at my MOM and Step Father’s Home and I made a sacred spot out by the pool where I could just contemplate what my next steps would be in my spiritual journey. My MOM and Step Father have since been called home to GOD however the memory of them allowing me to stay at their home will last forever. When we can create sacred spaces we can gain tranquility that allows us to follow the spiritual guidance of GOD, Jesus, The Ascended Masters, and The Angels. The beauty of being spiritually awake is that you can create sacred space wherever you may be along your path.

One of the sacred spaces I have is the tiki hut by my pool area at my condo where I currently reside. I often find myself sitting under the tiki hut and observing the nature simply allowing the different messages to flow to me so that I can take the necessary action on those actions to attract more peace, love, joy, and prosperity into my life so that I can make a positive impact on my community. Having a sacred space will allow you gain more insight into your life as you continue to seek answers while on your spiritual journey. When creating your sacred space I recommend some essential oils, some candles, and some crystals.

Once you have your sacred space established make sure you keep it clean and fresh so that you only attract positivism into the space. If you find that negativity is creeping into your sacred spaces simply sage the area and pray. Once you establish sacred space remember it is in that space that you can enhance the mind, body, and soul connection.

Your sacred space can be large or small. It can be inside or outside. It is your space to go to to find direction and to gain clarity as you communicate with the universe and find ways to lead a purpose driven life.

I have found that having some type of meditation cards in my sacred space help to find the answers that I am seeking at that time. In utilizing the cards I find that I am able to set a tome that will allow me to be open to receive the messages that are being sent so that I can take appropriate action to bring more bliss and abundance into my life. It is in creating sacred space and using a few tools that we are able to tap into our inner divinity and move toward enlightenment. It is when we enter the sacred space that we are reminded that we are divine children of GOD and GOD wants us to prosper so we can prosper others. May you create a sacred space that allows you create the life that you desire as you continue along your path.
