World Labyrinth Day

4/29/2020

0 Comments

 
​Saturday, May 2, is the 12th annual World Labyrinth Day. Traditionally, people are encouraged to seek a local labyrinth and walk along the ancient pattern. Community of Christ has participated in the past by hosting guided labyrinth walks at the Temple. 

This year, since much of the world is still practicing physical distancing, we've created a replica of the Temple labyrinth that you can trace with your finger on paper or screen. Walking a labyrinth can be a spiritual practice for people of all ages.

Some suggestions before you "walk" the labyrinth: 
  • Pause before entering the labyrinth to center thoughts and intention. Find a pace that is comfortable and simply move along the path to the center and back out. 
  • Be aware of the possible purposes and patterns symbolized in the journey.
  • The path from the entrance of the labyrinth to the center represents a time for releasing, emptying, and quieting. Let go of things that block communication with God. Relinquish things you attempt to control.
  • The center is a place for meditation and prayer. Enter with an open heart and mind and receive whatever clarity and wisdom is available.
  • As you leave the center, be aware of insight or clarity received. The path leading out of the labyrinth is for communion with God, for gratitude, for empowerment in living God’s call.
  • Pause along the way or stay in the center as long as you need. 
  • Be mindful of thoughts and feelings that happens along the way.
