Whispers of Nature outdoor Seven-Circuit Labyrinth is hosting its third annual Luminary Labyrinth Walk, Saturday, Oct. 27 from dusk until 9 p.m. Just as last year, the labyrinth’s pathway will be lit with 400 paper lanterns. We invite the community to come, walk and participate in this event. The night will also be lit by a brilliant Hunter’s moon, adding to the autumn glow. As islanders move into the darkness of winter, this luminary walk gives us the opportunity to tap into our internal light, offer our prayers and think of loved ones who are no longer with us. The moonlit night and lantern labyrinth walk provides a healing space to be with the community among the flickering lanterns.

This year we are also offering participants to create your own personal lantern(s), with inscriptions of your favorite poem or quote, specials words or names of loved ones. These “custom” lanterns will be added to the festival of lights at the portal entry of the labyrinth, illuminating the prayers of our community. Suggested donations of $1/bag will go toward the care of the labyrinth.

The event is free and non-denominational. All are welcome. Whispers of Nature Labyrinth is at 220 Fisherman Bay Road/Longandwinding Road. For more info, call 468-4459 or 468-0550. To learn more about the labyrinth visit www.whispersofnatureherbs.com.
