Sacred space

Seeing all the magic in the world around me made me understand the value of creating a sacred space at the oak tree. Truth be told, I have always taken great care of my surroundings. But for some silly reason I believed that this made me a squirrel with OCD. What nonsense! You can call it a virtue or Feng Shui or The Path of the Warrior, but cleanliness in your home is a good thing. Creating balance and harmony in your environment is a simple way to encourage awareness and attention and to invoke magic into your life. It doesn’t matter whether you live in a mansion or a tree. Any habitat can be turned into a sacred space. And you don’t have to buy stuff to do it. All you need to do is to clean what has become dirty, to declutter what is messy and to give consideration to details like lighting, colour, and scent. If for some reason it’s difficult to transform the entire place, just start with a single corner or a desk. Make that space really yours and commit to spending time there every day.
