A labyrinth is a series of concentric circles sharing a common centre. A path leads circuitously to the centre and back. This ancient imprint is found in religious traditions in various spiralling forms around the world. By walking the labyrinth, we are rediscovering a long-forgotten mystical tradition for tending the soul that transcends race, culture, language and time. It is based on sacred geometric principles.
Sacred geometry is the blueprint of Creation. It is an ancient sceince that explores and explains the way that the energy of creation organizes itself. The molecules of our DNA, the cornea of our eye, snow flakes, water molecules, pine cones, flower petals, the branching of trees, a nautilus shell, the star we spin around, the galaxy we spiral within, all life forms as we know them emerge out of timeless geometric codes. Sacred geometry provides a glimpse into the inner workings of the universe.
The labyrinth encodes aspects of this geometry and thus generates its mysterious power. Walking the labyrinth effortlessly calms and brings balance to the mind and body. We become more aware, receptive. The rational mind merges with the intuitive. We begin to resonate with the geometry of creative energy. At the very least, a deep sense of peace is experienced. At its best, the walk brings flashes of inspiration, new perspectives, and profound revelations.
