Here is the ancient rock where the Oracle sat in very ancient times before any of the temples had been built. We can only guess that perhaps she was a simple woman who had the gift of prophecy sitting by the side of a path the rock behind her split in too with the vapours of the earth assisting her in reaching altered states of consciousness until the Greek leaders found her and set her up in the temple.
No one knows if she chose to go or it was by force. What we do know was that this was the time of the worship of Mother Earth. It was the feminine principle of wisdom and intuition that was so sort after. Perhaps the men were too busy fighting or too disconnected to the earth.
The oracle (always female it seems) was revered in ancient times with Athena and Artemis worshiped on equal footing as Apollo and the other male gods.
Women’s sensitivity and intuition was greatly respected rather than undermined in the 21st century. Stay posted for my next instalment in Aegina!!!
