Stay tuned over the next three weeks to see all the new (and old) labyrinth designs I'm making!
I've started making jewelry again. Making beautiful things with my hands is one of my passions. Making labyrinths and playing in the labyrinth energy is another. This website is where I present both.
Have you visited www.labyrinthsociety.org?
It is the most comprehensive site on the web for labyrinth information.
Labyrinths have been with us for thousands of years. They appear on
coins from the Minoan Civilization on the island of Crete. Romans used
labyrinths to train horses. North American Natives use them as symbols
of the unconscious mind. One labyrinth in Greece was found scratched on
the back of a clay tablet 3200 years old!
Modern people are finding a way to release stress and connect with their
inner selves through the use of labyrinths. By tracing the pattern in,
then out, a calm and clear feeling comes over the person. Some attendees
at Labyrinth Workshops report spontaneous healing of old emotional wounds.
Others report that the hidden solutions to a problem reveal themselves.
At a gathering of dowsers, auras were measured before and after the use
of a special labyrinth. Before walking the labyrinth, auras radiated a
few meters from the individuals. After walking the labyrinth, the same
auras could be detected 30 meters away.
Whatever their influence on the human system, they are beautiful images
that I couldn't resist making into jewelry.
The Chartres style is found in the Cathedral at Chartres, France. You
can still walk this eleven circuit labyrinth
today. During the Holy Wars in the Middle East it was too dangerous to
make the devotional trip to Jerusalem. Pilgrims went instead to the cathedrals
. They made their pilgrimages to the Holy Land symbolically by walking
the pattern of the labyrinth set into the marble floors of the Cathedrals.
The Classic or Seven circuit labyrinth is found all over the world.
It is the style of labyrinth found on the Minoan coins. There are hundreds
of this style pattern scattered across Scandinavia.
