A labyrinth is an ancient symbol that relates to wholeness. It combines the imagery of the circle and the spiral into a meandering but purposeful path. The Labyrinth represents a journey to our own center and back again out into the world. Labyrinths have long been used as meditation and prayer tools.
A labyrinth is an archetype with which we can have a direct experience. We can walk it. It is a metaphor for life's journey. It is a symbol that creates a sacred space and place and takes us out of our ego to "That Which Is Within."
Labyrinths and mazes have often been confused. When most people hear of a labyrinth they think of a maze. A labyrinth is not a maze. A maze is like a puzzle to be solved. It has twists, turns, and blind alleys. It is a left brain task that requires logical, sequential, analytical activity to find the correct path into the maze and out.
A labyrinth has only one path. It is unicursal. The way in is the way out. There are no blind alleys. The path leads you on a circuitous path to the center and out again.
A labyrinth is a right brain task. It involves intuition, creativity, and imagery. With a maze many choices must be made and an active mind is needed to solve the problem of finding the center.
With a labyrinth there is only one choice to be made. The choice is to enter or not. A more passive, receptive mindset is needed. The choice is whether or not to walk a spiritual path.

Rathausgalerie. Anton-Wetterer-Straße/Marktplatz/Babette-Ihle-Straße. Hier entsteht das Labyrinth in Anlehnung an das große Labyrinth in der Kathedrale von Chartres. Städtische Mitarbeiter bei den Vorbereitungen.
"Labyrinthe sind keine Irrgärten. Sie haben nur einen einzigen, verschlungenen Weg. Dieser führt vom Startpunkt zum Ziel auf möglichst großer Strecke." www.aliquot.de/chartres/chartres.htm
Über das Labyrinth von Chartes heißt es: "Es ist ein Weg der sich über 34 Kehren, durch 11 konzentrische Kreise zum Zentrum windet und 265,50 m lang ist. Er misst 9 Meter im Durchmesser. In diesem Labyrinth steckt klar das uralte Wissen der Priester über die Schwierigkeiten, die wir Menschen auf dem Weg in unser Innerstes zu bewältigen haben." www.wieobensounten.de/diff/chartres.html
Labyrinthe dieser Art sind geprägt von Geschichten voller Mystik. Die 34 Kehren sind geeignet, Zauderer und unentschlossene Menschen vom eigentlichen Ziel abzubringen. Als Zentrum wird nicht nur unser Innerstes gesehen, sondern beispielsweise auch das himmlische Jerusalem, das Ziel unseres Erdenwegs.
Bislang haben die Bruchsaler das rätselhafte Labyrinth gut angenommen. Ich konnte nicht heraus bekommen, von wem der Vorschlag stammt. Anscheinend ist die Idee nicht neu und wurde im Zusammenhang mit dem viel zu großen Platz vor dem Rathaus, dem Marktplatz, vor einiger Zeit schon einmal diskutiert.
