Join us for a Crystal Labyrinth Walk. The power of the Labyrinth is amplified by the power of the crystals and their orientation on the Labyrinth! Stay tuned in our calendar for the next Crystal Walk "The walk of the Light"
Intentions of New Beginnings begin with a first step...
The Labyrinth at Knossos burned to the ground in the 15th century BC, yet the idea of the labyrinth survived. Through the centuries, in Greece and throughout the Mediterranean, a common symbol began to be associated with the labyrinth and its legends. Known today as the Cretan or 7-circuit labyrinth, it consists of a single path winding back and forth to a center point in a series of seven concentric rings.The origins of this symbol are somewhat mysterious. It may have spread quickly—and lasted for so many centuries—because the secret of how to draw it (using a seed pattern construction technique) was passed on from generation to generation and civilization to civilization. More intriguingly, the shape of the 7-circuit labyrinth also mirrors the motion of the planet mercury in the sky over a long period of time. Did some ancient astronomer record this motion, and create the labyrinth symbol based upon it? We will probably never know.
The earliest known use of the 7-circuit labyrinth symbol occurs on a clay tablet from the Mycenaean palace at Pylos in Greece. A fire destroyed this palace around 1200 BC, baking the clay tablet and preserving it for archaeologists. The labyrinth was probably a scribe's doodle, because the other side of the tablet was part of the palace records, and lists a number of men who were each owed a goat!
In the following centuries the identical labyrinth, however, turned up on an Etruscan wine jug in Italy, on rock outcrops carved in Spain, on a roof tile of the Parthenon and even as graffito in an Egyptian quarry. The labyrinth also begins to be associated with another Greek legend, that of the fall of the city of Troy, around this time. This walkin
g meditation graces us with great gifts of peace and harmonic balance.
NEW MOON Crystal walk...
Quartz crystals transmit, store and amplify energy as well as hold memory. When stimulated with heat, electricity or even thought forms they react and amplify the energy put forth. The Cretan labyrinth is fully lined with 800 quartz crystals which are specifically laid out with the terminated ends (pointed ends) pointing in one direction so that energy flows one way - towards the center key of the labyrinth. In the center, a cluster of quartz crystals are placed with an arrangement of citrine crystals. Four Lemurian crystals are placed in the four directions. These crystals are found in the sand in Brazil and Madagascar unlike other quartz crystals which are found in clusters. It is thought that the Atlantean civilization left these Lemurian crystals planted in the sands of South America containing memory from their civilization in the hopes that future Light Workers would be able to decode their information. These particular stones have striations up the sides that compare to the lines found on our CD's or old vinyl records. As the Atlantean civilization communicated telepathically, this was their means of storing information and the stones that are being found today are no less than an Atlantean library. The entire labyrinth is charged with sound using a clear quartz hand-held third eye (Note "A") practitioners bowl. The vibration from the sound activates every crystal in the labyrinth. When walking the New Moon labyrinth it is important to set new goals and have positive thoughts when inside as your intentions will be amplified. This is a powerful, yet gentle and positive experience.
