Labyrinth of Divine God and Goddess
On Saturday, February 2nd, 2013, we held ceremony for Enlivening our new Labyrinth of Divine God and Goddess.
Many, many thanks to Donna Askew and Sam Richardson for their incredibly hard work,
generous contribution, and dedication in creating our new Labyrinth!
The night of our celebration we were blessed with many Spirit Beings:
We welcome you to walk our beautiful, sacred Labyrinth:
Donna Askew, who graciously co-created our Labyrinth with Sam Richardson, shared this:
This Labyrinth was called into the 3rd Dimension by 13th Dimensional Beings. The Human Co-Created Manifestation is in Honor of All Living Beings.
The Winter Solstice Healing Grid is buried in the center of this Labyrinth and hundreds of small crystals are buried within the rocks.
We humbly provide a space for all to visit and share in the frequency band that has been co-created to hold this sacred
Labyrinths can be used as walking meditation/prayer healing modalities. As we walk in clockwise we repeat a prayer or request out loud and create an energetic hologram of vibrational intent. Once we reach the center, we stand in silence for a moment as the energy slows down and achieves a balance. As we walk out counter clockwise we are silent as we are sending the energy in the opposite direction to once again find a balance. We have just created a Frequency Band of Our Intent.
We invite you to participate at whatever level you are comfortable with. We are honored to have you at our Labyrinth!

History of Crystal Visions
Do you know the history of Crystal Visions?
Having dreamed of a bookstore, in 1988, Blair completed a course and business plan for operating one. When we moved to the mountains later that year, and searched for a source for crystals, the closest shop was about 45 minutes away.
A storefront that Blair’s parents owned on highway 25 “just happened to open up”, so we did our market research … at Smiley’s Flea Market:
We were blessed with new friends and acquaintances, and were immediately referred by one of you, Blake, to Pam McMahon, “the crystal lady.” To this day Pam is one of our nearest and dearest, and leads ceremony and singing!
Of course, we found great interest and support in having a metaphysical resource in the neighborhood.
We first opened next door, then had the opportunity to move to the larger space we now occupy.
Over the years we’ve had the opportunity o serve the community with products and services. Here’s a sampling of events:
2000-01:
Major expansion of the shop, including the addition of the large meeting space — with design by Cathy Easterbrook
2002:
A celebration of The Spiritual Reawakening of the Great Smoky Mountains, with Page Bryant and guest presenters, Frannie Oats, Michael and J.T. Garrett, Bo Taylor and Walker Calhoun
2004:
At our 15th anniversary celebration in 2004, we had a May Pole celebration,
Lee Carroll, channel for Kryon, visited for the first time,
Jani King, channel for P’Taah, visited again,
Our Medicine Wheel was created in the tradition of Sun Bear, thanks to Page Bryant,
And, with Emily Smoke, we hosted our first annual Weave the Web outdoor networking festival!

The most direct way in which you can have an impact is by donating food. You might just create a habit of buying a few extra cans when you go to the grocery store, keeping a box by your front door where you deposit these extra cans and when the box is full, bringing it to Crystal Visions on your next visit.
We will gladly receive and distribute your food donations to local food banks.
Needed items include:
- Canned meats (beef, chicken, tuna)
- Peanut butter (plastic jars only, please)
- Dried/Canned Beans (pork & beans, pinto, kidney, black)

Creating Sacred Space!
Sacred Space can be as small as the breath taken in during prayer, as large as a cathedral or as expansive as an ocean view. From the reflective to the whimsical, you’ll find the angelic and the fairy realms, as well as the world of the dragon.
Outside Meeting Space
The Garden, Pavilion, Fire Circle and Medicine Wheel
Our outdoor meeting space includes:
- a large lawn area
- a Pavilion with lighting for evening programs and a ceiling fan for warm days
- a flourishing garden
- a stone-framed Fire Circle with plenty of room for a large group to gather ’round
- a Medicine Wheel created in the tradition of Sun Bear
- and quiet meditation space under our sweet olive tree, fondly referred to as “Olive.”
In May we have a May Pole celebration!
And each Fall we have our Weave the Web Networking Festival!
