The Maze was designed in a time of trouble. Where the mind doesn’t turn off even when we go to sleep. We all know when our problems aren’t that complicated and yet we make them way more complex that we should.
We can observe many mythological stories related to labyrinths and decoding them we find a curious connection to the subconscious mind.
The classical tale of the Minotaur is a particularly good one.
The gods were so ashamed of a creature like Minotaur that they demanded the mortals to imprison him in a labyrinthic confinement.
