Advent is here again. This week, we’re meditating on the Mineral Kingdom, the world of the elements. Did you know: About 99 percent of the human body is made of just six elements? These are the very same elements that can be found throughout the Mineral Kingdom, in all the world’s “crystals, shells, and bones.”
We’re starting to build our Nativity Season Table this week by adding in some beautiful crystals, as well as our lovely Blessed Virgin Mary on her donkey. She will follow the star-lined path during the Advent season, leaving little roses in her wake as she passes.
Next week, we’ll add aspects of the Plant Kingdom to our little scene. Wishing you all a Blessed Advent!
