The meditation labyrinth dates back to Greek mythology and mid-evil times. Throughout time, The intertwined paths have been created using stones, bricks, flowers, hedges, wood logs, cut grass, candles, and have been painted or inlayed on cathedral and church floors around the world.

The labyrinth has been used as a path of meditation by various ancient cultures. they can be found around the world in places like Jerusalem, Mexico, Peru, Afghanistan, India, sri lanka, and in every country in Europe. Native Americans of the Hopi, Navajo, pima, and papago tribes were the first to use labyrinths in north America.

Many cultures use the labyrinth to symbolize a pilgrimage in miniature for those who can not afford the grand pilgrimages to places of worship. Some believe the center of the labyrinth symbolizes the center of the universe. The center is a wondrous place. It shelters and protects, brings joy and comfort. Others use the labyrinth as a dance circle for celebrations and rituals. For all, the labyrinth is a path of renewal. Whoever reaches the center and turns around is beginning a brand new path.
