TEMPLE ETIQUETTE

HOW TO WALK IN REVERENCE: 

Dear friends, this is not just hiking terrain. This is Temple ground.

1. Arrive in Silence

Before speaking, breathe.

Before taking photos, listen.

Let the land meet you before you meet her.

2. Offer Something, Always

Even if it’s just a song, a prayer, or your sincere gratitude - give something back. Tobacco, rose petals, cornmeal, a hair strand - simple gifts of acknowledgment.

3. Don’t Take Rocks or Artifacts

Let the stones remain where they are.

They are part of an ancient story and energetic grid.

Honor the story by leaving it whole.

4. Walk Barefoot (When Safe)

Even for a few minutes.

Let your feet receive the codes.

Let the Earth recognize your soles.

5. Speak Only Truth

This land has ears.

Every word spoken echoes into the vortex field.

Let your speech be prayers or silence.

6. Do Not Treat Vortexes Like Entertainment

Vortexes are living beings.

They are guardians, transformers, consciousness amplifiers.

Come in prayer, not performance.

7. Acknowledge the First Nations

Every visit should include a spoken or inward blessing to the Indigenous Peoples who once guarded this land.

Their spirits are still present.

8. Walk Lightly. Pack Lightly. Leave No Trace.

Physically and energetically.

Leave behind only your gratitude and perhaps a healed part of yourself.

9. Pray Before Ceremony. Ask for Permission.

Before hosting any spiritual circle, sound bath, or sacred practice:

Ask the land.

Ask the ancestors.

Ask the elementals.

If you do not know how, ask someone who walks in integrity.

10. Don’t Post Everything Online

Some encounters are not meant to be shared.

Let some sacred moments remain between you and the Divine.
