Circleway, the Story of the Women's Dream Quest is a book about a beloved spiritual gathering for women that began at San Francisco's Grace Cathedral in 1987. Judith Tripp, MA, MFT, who shepherds this gathering introduces us to the psychospiritual exercises, songs, meditations, and experiences of the Quest. She examines the elements that go into creating this overnight workshop that make it an experience that speaks to diverse women from all over the country. Judith shares her rich and eclectic spiritual life opening a window to the soulful creative process she uses to bring forth an ecumenical and welcoming celebration of the sacred feminine . . The Labyrinth, a symbolic pattern which is embedded into the floor of Chartres Cathedral in France and duplicated in churches, retreat centers and community gathering places throughout the world, is central to the Women's Dream Quest. Brought to Grace Cathedral by The Rev. Dr. Lauren Artress, the labyrinth has been the circular centerpiece of the Women's Dream Quest since 1993. The Labyrinth becomes a container for creating a sacred circle while it provides a path to walk in meditation during the Quest. On the labyrinth through music, meditation and ritual, women enter what Judith calls The Land of the Soul. Judith weaves elements of Eastern meditation, Jewish chant, American Indian lore, Christian mysticism and ancient pagan practice into the Quest and helps us to think about how such a weaving can bring us to the heart of human connection in our increasingly fragmented world. Through description, story and songs, Circleway describes how women meet in the circle on the path of the labyrinth, questing their dreams. As author of Entering the Healing Ground Francis Weller states,In a time of increasing reliance upon technology and speed, it is refreshing to be offered the gift of this book. Judith Tripp invites us into a rhythm that is familiar to the soul, a mood that reminds us of our need for rituals that connect us to the sacred, to one another and to the earth. This is a beautiful book, elegant and wise, filled with images and stories that reconnect us with the rich legacy we have inherited from ancient times. Through her poetic language, the mystery of the labyrinth comes alive and we are taken into the heartbeat of the Dream Quest. Circleway awakens our sensitivities to the beauty and vitality of the sacred feminine, helping us to see through the myopia of modern cultures obsession with patriarchal power. Read this book and enter into the realm of the soul.
