Delphi – Pythia’s Prophecy

Meeting the Oracle

Now I sound like an excerpt from The Matrix films. In this second part of the Delphi experience I will tell you about my meeting with the spirit of The Oracle. If you remember my first part I had just emerged from a water sluice, which was fortunately dry, and it had shaped my aura so that it was condensed, and thus I felt well protected. I hopped back over the rope that delineated the forbidden zone that I had been in. It felt good to be “lawful” again. No harm done (as one would expect from a druid).

Before me now were the towering columns of The Temple of Apollo. I approached warily. Something was warning me off this place. It felt uncomfortable. Having felt that feeling in the pit of my stomach many times before I knew to take heed and so I got out my dowsing rods. Time to find out where I SHOULD be, if it wasn’t inside this sun-oriented temple.

The dowsing rods took me to the very edges of the entrance, almost hugging the wall that defined the far side of The Sacred Way which ran down alongside the temple. I had asked to be taken to a place where I could meet with the Oracle of Delphi, and sooner than expected the rods pointed quite definitely into a seemingly innocuous recess opposite the main temple in the wall of the Sacred Way. I stepped up and in to see what was going on.

When I looked at the plans of the temple site on my return the alcove was not even mentioned. No-one seems to have defined a purpose for it, or to have given it much thought. Perhaps this was why the remaining spirit of the Oracle of Delphi could be found int his location. Or perhaps she had always been here but people had simply never noticed? Either way, it was time to commune with what energy remained in order to see if I could obtain some information. I let my gaze relax, and did my connection routine. Soon I was no longer alone.
