There are many books and websites which illustrate the method of drawing a 7-circuit/ring classical (Cretan) labyrinth by starting with a "seed pattern". This page goes beyond that by suggesting practical ways of creating full-sized versions which can be walked or run with little more than a ball of string and some pins.
.so Im kind of quiet on here. I wanted to show you how to draw a labyrinth. It's a grounding tool that can balance your Chakras and leave you feeling more centered and grounded. It's great to walk them, trace them with your finger or draw them. I'm going to draw one for you before I go to bed! It's a peaceful meditative thing to do before sleep! Enjoy! :)
Few things are more rewarding than to create a labyrinth and walk it afterwards. The love and care that go into the building - and in the walking - add to the transformative benefits of the labyrinth.
The labyrinth construction guides listed above, left, are designed for use in creating masking tape labyrinths. However, with a little modification of instructions as you go along, these guides also work well when constructing mowed turf, chalk or painted line, canned food, and other kinds of labyrinths. The lunation marker templates will help in the placement of single line ray-style lunations around the outside of a Chartres-style tape labyrinth. The tape dispenser instructions will help you create a tool for laying down masking tape lines while standing up. Use 2” wide masking tape.
