"What is a Labyrinth?
A labyrinth is a spiritual tool that has been around for thousands of years. It is a single walking path for prayer and meditation (and sometimes just for fun) leading to a center space and returning to its beginning. Unlike a maze, there are no dead ends or choices to right or left – only a clearly defined pathway to follow. Walking the labyrinth quiets the mind, allowing one to reflect, to receive and to renew.
OUR LABYRINTH is a five-circuit, neo-medieval cruciform design. In other words, there are five paths (circuits) which encircle the center space. Within this new (ne0), yet centuries old (medieval) design, the shape of a cross (a cruciform) is created, dividing the design into four quadrants with various bends and turns."
