Labyrinth Event: October 8th, 2011 from 10 am to 12 noon at Spanish Banks, Vancouver, British Columbia.
Nature is a portal to the sacred. Risk an encounter with the spiritual world, walk a labyrinth on the foreshore.
Our fall usually brings a lot of rain. If it is raining heavily, this event may be canceled. So please check back the morning of the event for confirmation of the 'walk.'
Please remember to dress for the weather and to walk through shallow tide pools.

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.
