I uploaded this image from the Wikipedia site that I linked to in my previous post today. It gives you an idea of the shape of the braided labyrinth that we created, although ours was one or two loops smaller.
Have you looked at the photos too? If you go back several entries, there are photos: http://liberationtheologylutheran.blogspot.com/2009/05/braided-labyrinth-photoessay.html (you'll have to cut and paste into your browser). I'm hoping that the two of them together help--we didn't measure out the labyrinth mathematically, although it's possible to do so, so I can't give you measurements easily, although each tile on the floor was 8 X 8, so it wouldn't be too impossible to figure out.
I'm a lifelong Lutheran, and although I'm aware of some of the problems with Liberation Theology, it has spoken to me for much of my adolescent and adult life. All of the thoughts on this blog are mine (or those of commenters), and I don't intend to speak for any other Lutherans or Liberation Theologians.
A poet, a scholar, an administrator, a wanna-be mystic--always wrestling with the temptation to run away to join an intentional community--but would it be contemplative? social justice oriented? creative? in the mountains? in the inner city?--may as well stay planted and wrestle with these tensions and contradictions here, at the edge of America.
Click on the image of the cover to order a copy of my chapbook of poems at pre-publication price.

This doesn't help at all!
