Walking as One at 1: On World Labyrinth Day each year participants across the globe engage in a labyrinth walk at 1:00 pm local time. This synchronized practice creates a 24-hour rolling wave of peaceful energy that passes from one time zone to the next across the world. The idea is to collectively contribute to a sense of unity and harmony.
St Peter’s Episcopal Church, Carson City is hosting a first annual labyrinth walk on May 4th from 12:30 – 2:30 pm at 314 N. Division at Telegraph. At 12:45 pm, a brief program to include an introduction to the labyrinth will begin the event. From 1:00 – 2:30 pm there will be an opportunity to walk our labyrinth or join in, seated, with a finger labyrinth. All are welcome and no prior experience is needed.
World Labyrinth Day (WLD) is an international event held on the first Saturday each May, sponsored by The Labyrinth Society in collaboration with partner organizations. The intention of WLD is to bring people from all over the planet together in celebration of labyrinths as a symbol, tool, passion, or practice. Labyrinths are found throughout the world with the oldest dating back 4,000 years. In contemporary use, labyrinths provide an opportunity for personal reflection, spiritual practice, or the reduction of stress.
