Definition
The core of a design, gathering, or self — the place from which energy flows.
Interpretation
In design, the center is both literal and metaphorical. It might be a courtyard, a fire pit, a sacred tree — or your own nervous system. A clear center gives coherence. Without a center, systems scatter.
Living Invitation
Choose a “center” in your home or garden — a hearth, a circle, a tree. Tend it. Let it anchor you.
