The Delphic Spread

annik

A little while back, I had read something on the Oracle of Delphi. It was linked with the recent discovery there. I also must admit I have a fascination with all that touch the Oracle of Delphi. I got inspired and thought it would be a good idea to to a spread with the Oracle of Delphi as the centerstage. Here is the result. I was thinking it would be a good spread to explore the self (as in Know yourself). Or to take a snap shot of the current situation the querent is. Any constructive comment is welcome!

1)The Pythia - the messenger
2)Apollo - the source/What we need to know/the information
3)The Priest - the translator/ (the querent?)
4)Delphi - the place/the ties
5)The tripod - down to earth/grounding
6)The Vapors - the mysterious/the unknown/inspiration
7)The Castalian Spring - what sustain you/what is needed
8)The laurel - good side of life/the conscious
9)Pytho - The less controlable/the unconcious
