There is no doubting the resurgence of interest in this ancient path at the turn of the Millennium. Beyond its spiritual and mystical dimensions, it is sought out as a means of empowering creativity, helping to deepen self-knowledge, and as a tool to guide healing. In the U.S., much credit for "rediscovery" of the labyrinth is given to Dr. Lauren Artress, Canon of Special Ministries at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco. Her 1991 en- counter with the labyrinth at Chartres Cathedral in France led to her writing Walking a Sacred Path, a seminal text for those wanting to learn more, and to the development of an ever expanding program, Veriditas: The Worldwide Labyrinth Project. I completed my training as a labyrinth facilitator with Dr. Attress in 2002. Information about my workshop, "Crossing Paths with the Labyrinth", is available by contacting me. My work with labyrinth has led me to create my own portable 15' labyrinth using a design called the Chalice Labyrinth, a combination of the Cretan and Chartres patterns. It is this that I use in my workshops and presentations. Regardless of the design, all labyrinths are based on sacred geometry offering a meditative space to listen to ourselves, to connect with the divine as it we understand it, and to dance to the rhythm of the earth. The World Wide Web has an abundance of wonderful sites devoted to labyrinth. Like ripples spreading out from a pebble dropped into still water, the more one looks into labyrinth, the more the patterns enlarge and intermingle in an endlessly fascinating and ever deepening mystery.
