Here’s a nice overview of the traditional labyrinth used as a spiritual exercise of old versus the New Age hijacking of this fascinating mini-pilgrimage. One may note when reading Chaucer that it is replete with rich mention of ancient mythos. This was knitted tightly within a cultural context that did not contravene Christianity, like Aesop’s fables are used today to illuminate a truth without suggesting tortoise or hare worship. So the labyrinth is part and parcel of traditional Christianity and worthy of our reclamation from the New Age cultural vampires.
