The setting for the Winter Solstice Labyrinth 2012, Vancouver BC at 8:00 pm


The Labyrinth is at the bottom of the picture and is outlined in a circle of lights. 
Thank you Lori for helping create this labyrinth.



  • The Hemispheres
  • Leave the familiar for a while.
  • Let your senses and bodies stretch out
  • Like a welcomed season
  • Onto the meadows and shores and hills.
  • Open up to the Roof.
  • Make a new water-mark on your excitement
  • And love.
  • Like a blooming night flower,
  • Bestow your vital fragrance of happiness
  • And giving
  • Upon our intimate assembly.
  • Change rooms in your mind for a day.
  • All the hemispheres in existence
  • Lie beside an equator
  • In your heart.
  • Greet Yourself
  • In your thousand other forms
  • As you mount the hidden tide and travel
  • Back home.
  • All the hemispheres in heaven
  • Are sitting around a fire
  • Chatting
  • While stitching themselves together
  • Into the Great Circle inside of
  • You.

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.
