The labyrinth is an interactive field of memory, information and creative potential, offering metaphors for wherever you are on life’s journey. Could it offer us a cosmic map or a pattern for how the universe is unfolding through us? How can we tune into the field of the labyrinth and discover for ourselves what the labyrinth offers?
Come take a peek at some of the wisdom and metaphors embedded in the labyrinth experience, while discovering ways of interacting with the labyrinth to inspire you on your quest and support you in turning stumbling blocks into stepping stones. Bringing new insights from her recent Walking a Sacred Path pilgrimage to Chartres, Laura invites us into questions of personal and cosmic relevance inspired by the teachings of Brian Thomas Swimme, Lauren Artress, Phil Cousineau, and many more.
You will emerge from the experience with an expanded understanding of how to relate with the labyrinth in this unfolding quest we call life.
