Life's Labyrinth

THE SYMBOLIC SPIRAL

The spiral we travel round life is the means we have to compare ourselves with ourselves, and discover how much we have changed since we were last in the city, met our brother, or celebrated Christmas.  Time itself is cyclic, and by the spiral of its returning seasons we review the growth of our own understanding.  ~ Jill Purce ~

As the inward winding labyrinth, the spiral constitutes the human journey to the still center where the secret of life is found.  As the vortex spiraling through its own center, it combines the inward and outward direction of movement. ~ Jill Purce ~
