 Olivia Robertson as the Oracle Photo © Logic Reality from Olivia, Priestess of Isis Listen to Oracles in our Audio Gallery February 2012Oracle: The Goddess Tiamat Booklet: Sophia, Cosmic Consciousness of the Goddess By: Olivia Robertson Invocation: Benign Goddess Tiamat, Mother of all Creation, Who wert before Light was separated from Darkness and all was One: Thou Who didst give birth to Gods and Goddesses; Lady of the Great Deep, Keeper of the Tablets of Fate, bring us knowledge of our Origin that we may live forever, surviving Thy Cycles of Time and Space. Oracle: The Dragon of Darkness am I, shining with countless stars. Each Turn of my body bringeth forth a new era of Time, another sphere of Space: yet within My Being do all these cycles survive in Eternal Reality. My first mighty serpent-coil is that of all the galaxies in the Universe. Curled amongst these lieth the Milky Way, pouring from my breasts. Guarded close to My heart is your sun with ten planets, and one of these is the sea-girt earth. My Seven Star-Crowned Heads of Hydra are raised to the Seventh Heaven: yet They reach to the depths of primordial darkness from which all light emanates. From this underworld I create unceasingly from My own Being: and My first-born is Light. Then from the spiritual world I give birth to the Deities; and the first of these is the God Apsu of the sea, My Consort. Next I draw from the depths all the elements, and from these form my brood made in Mine own Image. They come as whirling atoms and as microbes. They raise themselves to treetops as giant lizards born from My Dragon Shape. The great trees and the grasses are from My Hair. My offspring, who bear My fish's tail, populate the oceans as Leviathan and as myraid-coloured fishes swimming between coral forests. I give birth to birds, for am I not bird crested and fly with outspread wings? Howling storms echo my lamentation when my Divine husband the God Apsu perishes in the cycles of time, to be born anew through my Divine Body. The eleven supernatural Monsters who guard the Gate of the Abyss are my Brood, as are the creatures of the Zodiac. The centaurs and unicorns are of my Zoomorphic offspring, as are serpents who have my wisdom. You would know Me? Follow Me. I make the path of the serpent on the highroads of the stars. I glide smoothly, now to the left, now to the right, and I rise into the Light of Truth and I sink into the depths of Love. Swim in the oceans as I swim, and gallop with a horse over grassy planes - as I gallop with My Horse's body. Fly to your noblest aim as I fly with my Eagle's wings. Love with your whole heart! Be as original as Omoroka, She who is Myself, the Woman Who created all that is through the Divine Imagination. Life is One within the diversity of My manifold Being. All dissension ceases, all probings are useless; analysis, sciences and systems of calculation are destructive when these divide My Eternal Being in the minds of men! For My true Being may not be touched, save in the world of delusion. Split the atoms of my shadow-body and you injure yourselves. Dissect the least of my children ... and you are left with a corpse, and you lose touch with your soul. Return to My immortal embrace that is as encompassing as the salt sea, and you will gain communion with all beings. And in that communion is eternal Peace and Wisdom.
