 | Cultivating Sacred Space by Elizabeth Murray
Gardening is gratifying, if only from experiencing the growth of flowering new plants that results from our hard work and steady care. But when gardening becomes a way to bring the sacred into our lives -- when we garden with intent, vision, and a better understanding of how each act in the garden can reflect and enhance our everyday life -- then we are creating environments that provide spiritual well-being and nurture for the soul. In Cultivating Sacred Space: Gardening for the Soul, author, photographer, and professional gardener Elizabeth Murray encourages us to transform our own private gardens into places that satisfy our need for the sacred, for play, for meditation, and for connecting with the earth. Included are full-color reproductions of paintings and textiles that inspire new visions for our gardens; a comprehensive exploration (with photographs) of archetypes and symbols that we can employ to invite the sacred into our gardens; photographs and text about twelve sacred spaces, from the Moss Temple in Kyoto, Japan, and Monet's Giverny gardens to private gardens in Europe and America; and a chapter encouraging us to use our gardens for celebrations and ritual, exemplified by the story and pictures of Murray's own wedding garden -- which eventually came to be used both as a healing garden and a memorial garden.
