Awakening The Oracle

Rima and Me 💙

We gathered together under the canopy of the Almond tree. Our enlightened guide revealed that this was the closest we could get to the place where the Oracle once prophesied.

I had a loose idea of what we might co-create in that sacred space- maybe we’d softly sing a few songs, bring out the anointing oils, whisper our questions for the Oracle, and meditate on the answers. But as I opened the ritual, I found myself fumbling over my ideas, offering options instead of anchoring fully into the ritual space. This was the moment my heart had been waiting for, and I wanted it to be just right.

When Sonja and I gave our full-body yes to lead this retreat, Delphi sat at the center of our excitement. For the better part of a year, I researched all things Pythia in preparation for our pilgrimage. The Oracle had been calling to me.

I’ve long loved John Collier’s painting The Priestess of Delphi and always been drawn to its dark, mystical colors and familiar magic. I yearned to know her.

The Oracle of Delphi was so revered that no king, noble, or farmer would act without first seeking her divinely channeled guidance, wisdom that shaped the very course of ancient times.

And there we were, gazing upon the temple space, feeling how deeply sacred this land still is.

She trusted her voice.
They trusted her guidance.

As I slowly lifted my hands to offer Rima the Oracle Oil, inviting her to breathe in its scent, the wind rose behind us and swept our dresses and hair toward the Oracle’s seat. Chills covered my body. She was here with us.

We slipped between the veils, time-bending, and dropped into a ritual that felt fully, unmistakably divine.

One by one, each woman, and our beloved noble guardian, Enrico, stepped forward to be anointed.

To remember.
To awaken.
To be seen.

Tears spilled from every eye. Love sprang from our hearts.
The moment was unforgettable. Sacred. Alive.

To stand there as Priestess felt ancient.
We remembered through the anointing.

Each beloved called forth a different code of light to be activated—and that is how the Oracle wove her way through us.

I share this with you in celebration! This moment will live with me forever.

And… drum roll please! 🥁

I’m so excited to finally share Harmonia Anointing Oil’s next offering: Oracle Oil.

I created this blend just in time for our pilgrimage—and what emerged was something truly special. Each oil in this elixir called to harmonize and help us reawaken the Oracle within.

She holds us accountable to our truth.
She burns away what blocks our light.
And yes—she most definitely awakens.

I cannot wait for you to meet her.
