PETOSKEY — If you’ve never celebrated World Labyrinth Day, then Saturday might be your chance.
World Labyrinth Day is an annual event sponsored by The Labyrinth Society. According to the society, “every year on the first Saturday in May thousands of people around the world participate in this moving meditation for world peace.” The “Walk as One at 1” is intended to create a rolling wave of peaceful energy across the world.
Right here in Northern Michigan, two local labyrinths plan to take part in the event.
At the Petoskey District Library’s outdoor labyrinth, facilitator and Labyrinth Society member Dr. Elizabeth Fergus-Jean will lead the moving meditation at 1 p.m. The event is being done in partnership with My Oasis Center and the public is welcome to take part.
