Your Sacred Space
Make your Sacred space a way of life for you to access the higher truths, to attain tranquillity and peace in your heart.
The space and energy around your Altar will absorb your intention with reverence because you create the space to suit your worship.
This is your Altar so make the space sacred to you. Have fun setting it up.
Create a space to consciously greet the sacred in your everyday life.
You need to place your Altar in a space where you pass by it or where you can see it easily, so it will become a visual reminder of your commitment to follow a spiritual path. By cultivating this special relationship with the Divine you will find that it will bring more serenity and sacredness into your life. The right attitude is really important. Serenity does not come from outside, it comes from within. Your meditation will help you to transform your mind. This is where real self development and freedom will come from ... real freedom comes from within ourselves.
It so easy to create good luck, to have good karma, to create happiness and freedom. It is already available to you. You just have to believe and develop a positive attitude and using an Altar or Shrine on a daily basis will help you to achieve this.

Personal Altars
Your altar is the most sacred space in your home. Using an altar is a step toward inner awareness and will help you to focus and to clarify your thoughts, strengthening your spirituality. You can choose your altar design to reflect your philosophy. If you are a follower of Feng Shui the design of your altar will be different from those of you who follow the Christian path.
It does not matter what your religious or philosophy persuasion is, a personal altar will help you to create peace in your home by radiating its special energy. T his life force energy, I like to call it Chi, flows around and through everything. Without Chi nothing would exist. It is in the very air we breathe. Chi is a subtle energy. It is invisible, but we can feel its effects everywhere and at all times. It affects everybody and everything. It is a vibration, an atmosphere that influences our daily up and down feelings. Chi permeates everyone and everything and is constantly changing.
Your home does not need to become a shrine or holy place. Different areas in your home can be for different reasons like one altar could be for healing, or another could be to help you focus on your best direction for business or best direction for relationships. Your personal altar will help you to connect with the deeper parts of yourself. You can use your altar to seek spiritual wisdom, receive creative inspiration or just to say thank you for being you.
I have been making and using Altars for my own personal use for many years.
People who walk into my home say it has a very calming feeling about it.
I have created sacred spaces inside and outside my home. From the moment you walk through my gate you can feel the calm.
Sitting just inside the front gate in a garden grotto is my beautiful Buddha facing my front door. Often described as the “mouth of chi,” the front door is the entryway for energy into your home. Placing a Buddha facing your door helps to slow the energy down that is entering you home creating a peaceful space.
On the eastern side of my home I have a hand carved altar with a stained glass leadlight piece being held up by two hands. This is to say thanks at the beginning of each day. When I stand in front of the altar I am facing the sun rise.
My husband created a sacred space garden with a lovely water feature. He chose passion fruit vine to cover one of the walls and flowing creepers to cover the other walls. Chi can easily move around this space and it is a good place to meditate in. His altar here is his water feature.
