Labyrinths and Liminality: Walking a Labyrinth is like accepting an invitation to pray, meditate, contemplate, dream, celebrate or play; a place to find inspiration, satisfy a curiosity, examine metaphor, mythology or simply, a place to explore liminal space: a 'betwixt and between' place. See my Profile for a full description of this Blog . . . Background picture on my Blog is from the posting: Thursday, August 19, 2010.

Labyrinth Event: Today, Monday, November 29, 2010 from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm, Sunset Beach, English Bay - directions.
Environment Canada is predicting a wet day today, however, I have posted these photographs to clarify the location of the labyrinth if the forecast is wrong.
The general location to find is 1204 Beach Avenue, as noted in the Blog entry of Tuesday, October 26, 2010.
When you are in front of the Beach Cafe and facing the water, the Burrard Street Bridge will be on your left. Walk toward the bridge and the fenced area of the parking lot until you reach the light, on your left, and the 'No Dogs Permitted on Beach' sign, on your right. The labyrinth will be on the beach where the land slopes to the water, beyond the sign.
I will post a Blog entry at 5 pm today confirming or cancelling this event.

About Me
- walking a labyrinth
- Walking a Labyrinth is like accepting an invitation to pray, meditate, contemplate, dream, celebrate or play; a place to find inspiration, satisfy a curiosity, examine metaphor, mythology or simply, a place to explore liminal space: a 'betwixt and between' place. . . Victor W Turner has described liminality as "a fructile chaos, a storehouse of possibilities, not a random assemblage but a striving after new forms and structures, a gestation process." Labyrinths are drawn on the foreshore, betwixt the nearshore and the backshore, between the low and high water marks to present liminal space as a physical location. Labyrinths may also be drawn during liminal time: dusk or dawn and/or solstice or equinox. The flags surrounding the labyrinth are used for a couple reasons: first they help people find the labyrinth at Spanish Banks. Next, they are used to create a natural acoustic environment. This auditory experience or sound scape ecology is intended to alter the perception and/or the perspective of visitors while they are walking the labyrinth.
