The truth about the Oracle's insight is that her chamber was situated above a sulfer deposit. The fumes would rise into the chamber, and the oracle would breathe them in, causing some hallucinogenic properties. Much of what the Oracle would say would be gibberish, and her interpreters would repeat these insights in more comprehensible Greek.

This allusion seems to appear in the later sources, many of which were written by Christians who aimed to dismiss 'pagan' rituals and traditions such as the Oracle." Not saying the Oracle wasn't high on something, though xD

I was so relieved when they sacrificed a cake instead of the shuddering goat.

I've seen some people claim it was just "winging it" but this overlooks the craziest part. Some other prophetic gods, such as Dionysus, communicated through "ritual insanity" which involved getting drunk and thrashing around. The Pythia, however, would speak in perfect hexametrical verse when giving her prophecies. That still blows my mind when I think about it!

Oracles giving cryptic answers is like people texting back a long response between a yes or no question and then ending with a “but idk tho so gl” LOL

I searched up everything that the oracle said, and while some were definitely ambiguous, a lot was just straightforward and surprisingly a lot came true

My heart is always delighted everytime I hear Addison's narration. 💯❤️

The story about Delphi I was taught is pretty different. Actually, I learnt that the city was built because of mariners who saw dolphins (Apollo's animal) which led them to this place. They understood that Apollo wanted for them to create a city here.

It's strange thinking of "ancient Greek religion" as a confusion of ancient stories, superstitions, and a myriad of rituals multiplied by hundreds (if not thousands) of _little cultures,_ but they all had some aspects that kept them spiritually unified, so much so that their religion could resemble modern organized faiths.

Did anyone started liking Greek myths because of reading Percy Jackson, or is it just me?

I'm sure Apollo must've helped a lot by sharing his PROPHECIES as they say to the oracles just like I'm sure the spell in Egypt to cure scorpion sting was so effective. Ancient civilisations, am I right?

The idea of consulting an oracle has always been part of human history and continues with us today. We all like guidance and many of us wish someone would tell us what to do. Some people speak to therapists, some turn to more mystical methods and many more turn to friends and family. We all crave guidance and that has never changed and will never change.
