The Power of the Labyrinth
Psychiatrist Carl Jung called the labyrinth an "archetype of transformation". The
effect of the winding walkway results in the synchronization of the left and right
hemispheres of the brain, allowing for "whole brain" thinking and the union of the
analytical and feeling selves. This whole brain synchronization leads to altered
states of consciousness and powerful opportunities for transformation.
Some say the path of the labyrinth - as it winds around and doubles back on itself
- becomes a mirror for where we are in our lives and thus opens us to powerful
insights. Entering into the labyrinth - the journey towards the center is often
considered the stage of letting go...of our anger, self-pity, judgement, control

Some say the path of the labyrinth - as it winds around and doubles back on itself
- becomes a mirror for where we are in our lives and thus opens us to powerful
insights. Entering into the labyrinth - the journey towards the center is often
considered the stage of letting go...of our anger, self-pity, judgement, control
- those things that cut us off from our own Divine Center.We arrive in the center cleansed of the limiting
beliefs we released upon our journey inwards and we wait with an open heart and open mind to receive. The
center of the labyrinth may be experienced as a powerful vibration, a rush of energy, or simply a calmness
within.
As you journey back out from the center you travel your path with new perspective and new focus. Returning
to where you began with a new sense of direction. The commitment to follow that new sense of direction is a
choice you have free will to keep.

Guidelines on Walking the Labyrinth
Walking the labyrinth is a very personal journey...there is no "right" way. You may wish to keep the
following in mind:
following in mind:
- Let go of any expectation of what you "should" experience..and do not compare your walk to others.
Allow any emotions to be expressed...feel free to dance or skip, or simply reflect quietly. - Walk at your own pace. It is fine to pass the person ahead of you.
- Since the entrance and exit to the labyrinth are the same, you will meet others along the way. You
may choose to connect with them soul-to-soul, embrace or simply step aside to let them pass. - Stay in the center as long as you wish, then follow the path outward.
- Know that the vibration of the labyrinth is multiplied by the number of individuals within it. See each
person as one cell in the Greater Being that is the One. - Some people may wish to bow or pray or touch the ground upon entering or exiting the labyrinth.
Allow yourself to follow any impulses that may come to you.
Our Labyrinth - Chartres Cathedral
The portable labyrinth that we are using is based on the labyrinth found
in the 13th century Chartres (f. pron. "shar' tr") Cathedral in northern
France. Chartres is said to have been built over a Temple of Isis and
seven sacred rivers. This powerful energy vortex is thought to have the
power to assist people in transforming and transmuting them to a higher
spiritual state.

arrival you will be saged to clear any negative energies you may have collected during the day. Our program
begins with an invocation to Source followed by a guided meditation to create one powerful group heart and
increase the vibration even further.
At each gathering Sacred Music is played by artists who truly express Divine Spirit through their perfomances.
During the evening Ashle and Joseph will bring through tonings from their healing lifetime in Atlantis (and
perhaps some Native American ones as well). The resonance of these tones will assist in activating codings
held deep within your Spiritual DNA. Allow the frequencies to wash over your total being.
You will know when it is time for you to walk the Labyrinth. You may feel drawn to sit and meditate for awhile, or
you may feel the need to be amongst the first to enter the vortex. While not walking the Labyrinth you may
choose to sit or lay and meditate, or to receive Energetic Healing from Joseph and friends who are there to be of
service during the evening. Follow your own inner guidance.

What to Bring
- Please bring a pair of socks that you can wear while walking the labyrinth
- You may wish to bring a pillow or cushions if you would like to lay down to meditate at any time
during the evening. - Please note that NO FOOD or OPEN BEVERAGES are allowed in the Sanctuary. We do suggest
you bring good bottled water as it is important to drink plenty of water while doing vibrational work.
You may drink in the foyer area but please help us honour the Sanctuary by not drinking within it.
