Labyrinth event: Celebrate World Wide Labyrinth Day - May 7, 2011 from 1 to 4 pm at Spanish Banks, Vancouver, BC, Canada.


World Wide Labyrinth Day is organized by The Labyrinth Society (TLS) to celebrate the labyrinth as "a symbol, a tool, a passion or a practice."

The genesis of the labyrinth remains somewhat of a mystery. The earliest recovered labyrinth is etched onto a clay tablet and was found in Pylos. Appearing in many cultures, faiths and regions of the world, the labyrinth has been use by people for diverse purposes throughout history.

Designated as "Walk as One at 1" by TLS, this event aspires to create "a rolling wave of peaceful energy" that circles the earth by virtue of people walking a labyrinth at 1:00pm in their timezone.


 Connect with others, around the world and at Spanish Banks in Vancouver, on May 7, 2011 and walk for peace in the world and people living in harmony with nature.

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.
