A labyrinth is not a maze, despite the word frequently being misused that way. A labyrinth is a meditation tool; you walk meditatively from the entrance to the center and back again, following all the twists and turns. I have done labyrinth work at key junctures in my life when I felt I needed key insights, and I always come out knowing more than I did going in.

The insights gained in a labyrinth might be highly personal, and not necessarily able to be shared with or explained to others. In my case, some of the things I learned would be considered unacceptable by large portions of the faith community. Rather than share them here, and risk casting my pearls before swine, I instead merely ask for general thoughts on labyrinth work, both by those who have done it, and those who have not.
