Yesterday's draw was the nine of pentacles. This card emphasises enjoying beauty and pleasure that we have created. A little before it turned dark I cleared up my papers and put away the laptop. I lit some candles placing alongside jewellery that belonged to my grandparents and others preceding them that I never met. As night fell I did an ancestor spread. It was such a lovely experience. The 'wartime' fireplace has been on my demolition list since we moved here and the candlesticks which belonged to K's mother were going to be put away until I noticed their moonly shape. Anyway glad both were still here last night...
Today's card is the six of swords which I drew today can indicate moving to a calmer place. I am reminded by this that I can create healing space exactly where I am. 
I unconsciously sighed just looking at your sacred space. Amazing what something simple and beautiful can do for your spirit. Thanks for sharing that!
ReplyDeleteThank you! nurturing the spirit is something I have often overlooked, and yet as you say something very simple can be just what we need.
DeleteI too was enchanted with your altar. A sacred place just like the garden in the Nine of Pentacles. Getting away and spending time with oneself can be a joy.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I think this will become a regular practice.
Deletewow, that mantle space is stunning, I'll run right over and take it off your hands.
ReplyDelete:) thank you! the person who fitted it would have been so proud to 'upgrade' from a Victorian fireplace. Let's have a cup of tea and a think before I get out the sledgehammer...
DeleteLove your sacred space. It's truly magical
ReplyDeleteOh thank you so much :)
