THE ART OF CREATING SACRED SPACE...

The first complete book on altars and altar building, 'Altars Made Easy' explores the creation of sacred space – in the home, in the office, in the garden, even in temporary surroundings – as a powerful tool of trans-formation and spiritual development. What is sacred space? It is a place where, as Joseph Campbell put it, wonder can be revealed.

In a single volume, you will learn, step by step, how to create altars that focus energy and reflect the spirit, including:
· Understanding the language of sacred space
· Creating altars for special needs
· Chossing materials, colors, and statuary
· Empowering your altar with signs and symbols
· Energizing sacred space with light, smoke, and scent
· Using gemstones and minerals
· Drawing on the power of totems and guardians
· Building outdoor altars, and much, much more.

Beautifully illustrated, this volume contains a full resource section and is filled with examples to help you create sacred space. With 'Altars Made Easy' you have everything you need to create your own unique altar for meditation, reflection, prayer and revelation.
