Welcome oracles and priestesses of the lineages of dragon and serpent. The lands, temples and springs of Delphi Greece are calling her daughters home. There is an ancient prophecy that states, "when the waters of the Castilian spring flow once more, the oracles have returned." As priestess and oracle we pilgrimage not to extract from the lands but to listen, to be transformed, to offer our prayer, womb and hearts .These lands once belonged to the priestess and oracles of Gaia, of Dragon, before the colonization of Apollo and his patriarchal rule. We pilgrimage to feed the lands once more, to awaken the sacred within and without. To deeply listen and strengthen our oracular eyesight. This is Pythia’s request.
Who is the Pythia?
“In the center of the world a fissure opened from the black depths of Earth, and waters flowed from the spring. The place was called Delphi (“womb”). In the subterranean adyton prophesied an ecstatic seeress called the Pythia - Serpent Woman. Her oracular power came from a she-dragon in the Castalian spring, whose waters had inspirational qualities. She sat on her tripod, breathing vapors that emerged from the cleft in the Earth, until she entered trance and chanted enigmatic prophetic verses. She belonged to a line of oracular women that would last for some fifteen centuries.” - Women in Greek Mythography, Max Dashu
Pythia Academy Presents: A pilgrimage to the Omphalos, Delphi Greece
The colonization of sacred lands and oracles of Gaia.
“Story becomes myth, myth becomes legend.”
Greek legend recalls the forceful Apollonian takeover of Delphi, of Gē (Earth) and killing of her serpent, she-dragon. The taking of her shrine and making it his own. In the Homeric Hymn to Apollo the dragon is demonized and made to be seen as evil and dangerous to anyone who encountered her.
“But nearby was a sweet flowing spring, and there with his strong bow the lord, the son of Zeus, killed the bloated, great she-dragon. A fierce monster wont do great mischief to men upon earth, to men themselves and to their thin-shanked sheep; for she was a very bloody plague. The monster of Delphyne."A Delphic inscription refers to Apollo’s opponent as the “daughter of Gē”, earth-dragon, Delphyne and Pythia herself a “Serpent Woman.” The name Delphyne, like Delphi is derived from delphys meaning “womb”. It is said a laurel tree stood in the Delphic oracle sanctuary, along with the Omphalos and prophetic tripod. One of the Greek words for laurel is Daphne, a name with strong oracular connections.
Why we pilgrimage to delphi.
We see the theme of Apollo’s colonization of lands, women’s bodies, her spiritual gifts and the ministry of the goddess, mirrored around the world. We have endured five thousand years of rupture of the sacred feminine spirit. Dragons and serpent, the symbols of the goddess have been slayed in service to the rise of a wounded patriarchal rule.
We are living in a moment in our human timeline where we have the responsibility as priestesses and oracles to support bringing equilibrium to an earth that is starved of the feminine spirit. These lands where once protected and cared for by women who understood the Earth was sacred. They understood specific grid lines of the earth held unique frequencies, energies that mirrored the heavenly bodies which created powerful portals for communing with the holy.
It is time we returned to feed and pray with the lands. To weave in deep reciprocity with the dragon grid lines as the Pythia and Oracle of Delphi once did. We must listen directly to the lands themselves. So we may receive guidance on how we can be of service as priestess and oracle to the vision of uplifting the feminine spirit.
The lineage oracles of Delphi, the Pythia, held leadership for over two thousand years. They gave councils to Kings, political leaders, warriors, philosophers and pilgrims from around the world. The return of oracles has begun and the sacred springs are beginning to flow once more .
The Omphalos (“naval”) stone stood in the inner adyton of Delphi. It was considered to be the center of the Earth, reached by two eagles who flew from East and West. It was said the Python was buried beneath the stone, on which the Pythia rested her hand.

“A famous sect of priestesses were the Oracles of Delphi inGreece - Delphi means womb. Part of their practice was to squat over a crevice in the earth - representing a vulvic opening into the Earth Womb - and to receive wisdom and prophecy directly from the land’s energy into their own wombs. Gas emissions from the cleft could have also caused them to access shamanic trance states. Yoni steaming was a common feminine art in ancient cultures. They also had the womb power to be impregnated with energy, to birth new creation via “immaculate conception.” Originally, the site was sacred to Gaia, the Earth, Goddess , and also connected to the Moon culture of Crete. The Delphic priestesses were said to have the gift of “honey voiced singing” from the Muse, like the sirens. French excavations of the site reveal scrying pools inside the temple, and the Pythia, as the oracle was known, was consulted on all matters of state importance until 300 CE.”-Womb Awakening: Azra & Seren Bertrand
