SATURDAY: Power Centers, Sacred Spaces, & Labyrinths
Participants may register for individual events (such as Saturday workshop, OR the full weekend immersion).
Please note: Saturday’s workshop is designed as a continuation of Friday evening’s introductory fireside gathering, and attendance at Friday’s session is strongly encouraged for all Saturday participants.
Saturday Workshop:
Power Centers, Sacred Spaces & Labyrinths
Saturday, June 13, 2026
9:00 AM – 5:00 PM
(Friday evening attendance strongly recommended)
A full-day experiential workshop exploring sacred landscapes, labyrinths, and embodied relationship with place.
Together we will investigate the nature of power centers and sacred spaces, learn the history and symbolic language of labyrinths, and then move into hands-on creation and interactive practice on the land itself.
Participants will work in groups to build a series of traditional 7-circuit labyrinths together — including both left- and right-handed forms, as well as concentric and acorn-style designs. The process itself becomes a collaborative act of listening, blessing, creativity, and land connection.
Once completed, the labyrinths become living ceremonial spaces for walking meditation, movement, music, relational practice, and communal reflection.
Saturday Schedule
9:00 AM – 10:30 AM
Power Centers & Sacred Spaces
An illustrated presentation exploring places where the spirit of the land becomes especially tangible and available for interaction, inspiration, and renewal.
11:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Labyrinths Across Cultures & Traditions
A visual and experiential introduction to labyrinth forms, symbolism, sacred geometry, and ceremonial use throughout history.
1:30 PM – 3:00 PM
Building the Labyrinths
Working together in small groups, participants will create multiple 7-circuit labyrinths on the land using traditional and creative forms with flags, yarn, and collaborative design.
Participants will:
Build and dedicate their labyrinths together
Explore both left- and right-handed pathways
Learn concentric and acorn-style forms
Engage directly with the land through creative process and ceremony
3:30 PM – 5:00 PM
Walking, Dancing & Dreaming the Labyrinth
Explore individual and collective ways of engaging the labyrinth through walking meditation, movement, music, and interactive group practices.
Participants will experience playful and deeply meaningful forms of labyrinth walking — including hand-in-hand partner journeys, communal in-and-out movement patterns, and music-guided labyrinth dances that foster connection, trust, reflection, and joy.
The labyrinth becomes both mirror and metaphor: a path of descent and return, problem-solving and revelation, stillness and emergence.
As Patrick describes it: “The labyrinth is like a combination lock and a safe. You move through its turns and pathways until suddenly something opens — and there is a moment of revelation and stillness.”
The day concludes with shared reflection, integration, and closing discussion.
