In the spirit of reciprocity and gratitude, please bring a gift to offer to the Sacred in Nature such as flowers, coffee beans, etc. These will be used to create a mandala in the centre of the labyrinth.

Labyrinth walk: Sunday February 14, 2016 from 5 - 6:30 pm.

Weather permitting, I will draw a labyrinth on Sunday February 14, 2016, however, I'm not sure where I will draw. That is, I will draw either on Spanish Banks or on Sunset Beach. My decision of where to draw will depend on the weather: if the weather prediction for that Sunday is cool but relatively calm, I will draw on Spanish Banks; if, however, the weather is predicted to be windy with colder temperatures, I will draw on Sunset Beach, close to the Aquatic Centre in Vancouver. I will not draw if rain is forecasted.

Nonetheless, I will post the location by Thursday  February, 11, 2016.

Cost: by donation.

About Me

My photo
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.
