• Chartres Cathedral Four Quadrant Pattern. • 7 1/2" Bracelet with jeffreydavid toggle set and 3/4" labyrinth. The labyrinth is a means and method of fostering spiritual balance. To course it's path by foot or finger enhances psychological, emotional and physical well being. It is a path that provides many twists and turns, but no dead ends, as we engage ourselves in life's spiritual journey. With it's origins still a mystery, labyrinths have been built in Egypt, India, Peru, Iceland, Arizona and Sumatra as early as 2000 BCE. The 4-quadrant labyrinth is found in Chartres Cathedral in France. Notably, the Episcopal Church relates that the labyrinth is a "Sacred Space" where individuals may go to contact the realm that lies beyond the grasp of the five senses. When walking it by foot or coursing its pattern by hand as a method of meditating, the labyrinth serves as an oracle for gaining intuition and wisdom and for receiving answers to life's troubling questions. |
