Dr. Lauren Artress continues in her book Walking A Sacred Path: Rediscovering The Labyrinth As A Spiritual Tool (1995), ...In researching the labyrinth, it doesn't take long to find your way into books naming the paths for the planets. The Chartres Labyrinth articulates an ancient cosmology, much as the medicine wheel does for Native American culture. Keith Critchlow believes the source of labyrinth cosmology is most likely from Macrobius's Commentary On Cicero's Dream Of Scipio. This book was known to have been in the library at the School of Chartres before the Cathedral was built. According to the theory, the earth was at the center of the labyrinth. The consecutive circle of paths held the Moon, the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn. The three outermost paths represented the powers of Soul, Mind, and Supreme God. Understood in Neoplatonic as well as Christian terms, the person who chooses to walk the labyrinth is reenacting the descent of the soul into manifestation on earth (at the center).... Once it was discovered that the earth was not at the center of the universe, this map of the cosmos was discredited, and the value of this ancient tool was forgotten.

The labyrinth was also seen as an astrological aid, including the 12 signs of the astrological chart which are Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Leo, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, and Pisces.

Understand the spiritual connection between the labyrinth maze and ancient cosmology. Find the path to the cosmos by walking your way through the spiritual passageway and entering the center circle. The spiral pathway is a circular design that is helps you meditate while you walk.
