Welcome to Virginia Labyrinths
Contrary to how many of us act, this is the time nature encourages rest--at least in the Northern hemisphere! Our ancestors gathered around fires, told stories, and taught young people lessons. Maybe we should follow suit?!
Join us in an online walk to celebrate the December Solstice! We'll gather on Sunday, December 21st, at 4:30 pm Eastern time. We usually take about an hour.
The free link can be found at https://www.cscommunities.org/calendar . (Of course, CSC always welcomes donations.) When you are there, just click on the date to get the link.
Bring your labyrinth!
If you need to print a labyrinth to participate, here's one we recommend:
A Creation Spirituality Walk of the Labyrinth
Offered by Mary Ann
Remember
Circle the labyrinth, preferably three times in a clockwise direction—the Celtic way, focusing on your Original Blessings, especially the awesome goodness of Creation! Embrace the diversity and interdependency. Thank the minerals, flora, fauna, ancestors, angels, and Great Mystery.
Release
As you enter and proceed to the center, focus on letting go of your grief, sadness, anger, rage, confusion. Enter the silence of your soul. Perhaps listen to the sounds of nature if you are outdoors. Feel the Scream, the psalm of lament, as you hear your call as a Mystic.
Receive
Stay in the center as long as you desire, ready to take in inspiration, insight, creativity! Enter Kairos so that you can better co-create with the Evolutionary Consciousness. Embrace your role as Artist.
Return
As you leave the center and proceed to the exit (which is the same as the entrance), await information regarding your Sacred Action. Do you need to speak truth to power? Do you need to get into good trouble? This is your role as Prophet.
About
A Group with a Common Passion
Virginia Labyrinths was founded in 2021 after an individual decided to turn her interests into a local Labyrinth Circle. We're growing as a community, and have expanded what we offer to fellow walkers. When you decide to join us, you too will learn about various events and, most importantly, meet a group of like-minded individuals who are just as passionate as you are.
Projects
LABYRINTH ACTIVISM
If you are walking as a group, consider embarking on Labyrinth Activism (See the Labyrinth Legacy Project https://www.legacylabyrinthproject.org/ regarding the Labyrinth Legacy Network that is being formed.):
Achieve coherency by breathing together and calming intentionally. Slowly breathe in Earth energy from the ground and send out your positive intention as you completely breath out and up. This creates a torus (a donut-shaped field). Remain as positive as possible. (Investigate the HeartMath Institute, https://www.heartmath.org/ , for more information.) This step is additional and quite powerful in amplifying an intention. We can also take this step when we walk alone.
When coherency is achieved, state your positive intention as a unit. This is written as if your intention is already realized. Remember your one, simply-stated goal. (Refer to Lynn McTaggart’s writing for more information.)
Walk (being sure to allow enough space so that no one feels rushed, or suggesting that walkers pass one another respectfully) to release egoic intrusion. Embrace being an instrument.
Receive next steps for the Sacred Action of your group as you pause in the center.
Return to share insight and activate your mission.
