We are worlds apart and I repeat that the word "sacred" has no meaning for me. Many things in my perception of the world are special, valuable, vital, mysterious, beautiful, precious etc etc, but I call none sacred.

The meanings of words do evolve, but we can only communicate effectively if we understand what we mean when we use a word. I think that I do understand what you and Paulus mean by "sacred", but that doesn't mean that I share it.
Have you found a dictionary that lists "numinosity" or have you invented it? What do you want it to mean?
