Venus
stands still
and peers over my shoulder…
The heart
at the center of her gaze,
the sun
at the center of the heart
of the Super Galactic Center,
nestled in the womb
of the Mother
soon to birth
into life
into being
into our hearts,
this light,
of wheat and water
that I offer,
feathered flight of the sky,
and this green earth jewel
and the fire of the sun…
Open.
Drink.
Dance.
Let your being be a seed,
spread far and wide,
seeds that sow
kindness,
wonder,
compassion,
healing,
generosity,
joy,
love,
and creative passion.
Join your hands
throughout space and time…
lift each other up.
Follow this star path,
beneath your feet,
home.

Labyrinths provide us with a path to practice change. Some labyrinths have withstood the passage of time for thousands of years. Others are here for just an afternoon, drawn in the sand at the edge of the ocean. Many modern labyrinths were meant to last for years, but because of unforeseen circumstances their time is shorter than intended. And they once again help us to practice letting go and giving thanks for the time they are with us. The Labyrinth of Life at the Sebastopol, California Teen Center reached such place of letting go and is at the end of one chapter and the beginning of another chapter that is yet unknown.

Sometimes... a labyrinth can take years to become a physical reality. In 2018 I met with my friend Deb, to discuss her desire to have a labyrinth on the beautiful land she lives on. Despite our plans and several meetings, listening to the land and finding the right spot, the labyrinth did not come to fruition. Fast-forward five years and in the blink of an eye... it happened!
