A Labyrinth Is No Ordinary Walk

A Labyrinth is No Ordinary Walk

labyrinthThere is of course only physical way to walk a labyrinth as there is only one route in and so, one route out.

However, there are many different ways in which it can be walked. Unconsciously or consciously, quick or slow, with deliberation as to where you place your feet or not etc.

When you decide to walk it consciously then you can accompany it with a positive intention to transform something in your life.

In the old Celtic traditions, a person walked into a labyrinth to release an old pattern, and as you do that thoughts, images, emotions, memories may come your way from present or even from past lives. You can be with them knowing that they are here to be let go of.

In the centre of the labyrinth there is stillness, the Soul, Source or perhaps what you could simply call the turning point.

Then on the way out the new pattern to replace the old is integrated. Here you might envision how your life will be with the change in place. Sometimes, flashes of the old pattern might come your way on the walk out and then it’s your chance to pause, breathe and reinforce the new pattern instead as you make your choice for change and stay focused on how you are in the future.

This is no ordinary walk.

The labyrinth that I have just walked is in the magical town of Tepotzlan in Mexico, and it is a copy of the very special labyrinth at Chartres cathedral in France, which I have also had the pleasure of walking. Chartres Cathedral usually only opens up its “jewel” on Fridays in the summer months.
