Walk the Labyrinth
The labyrinth at Edgar Cayce’s A.R.E. headquarters in Virginia Beach is located in front of the historic hospital building built by Edgar Cayce in 1928. It is an 11-circuit labyrinth, 40 feet in diameter with 11 circles constructed of contrasting tan and charcoal-colored pavers. Modeled after the labyrinth at the Chartres Cathedral in France, it is designed as a safe area to simply walk and think or enter into a deep meditation.
Walking the labyrinth can help you find spiritual guidance or a solution to a problem. Visitors are welcome to walk the labyrinth - free - anytime between sunup and sundown. Download these tips for getting results within the labyrinth.
