 Olivia Robertson as the Oracle Photo © Logic Reality from Olivia, Priestess of Isis February 2013 Oracle: The Goddess Ishtar Booklet: Melusina, Life Centres of the Goddess By: Olivia Robertson Hear Olivia Robertson as the Oracle (MP3 file/857kb/3:39 mins) Invocation: I invoke the Goddess Ishtar, Lady of 15, of thou who descended through the seven gateways of the Underworld to save thy husband Dumuzi. Thou who surrendered and regained thy crown of Light, lead us to knowledge of our immortality.  photo © M.Q. Altar of Ishtar, Star Chapel Mirror painting by Olivia Robertson Oracle: You can only realise that you lie in an unreal world when you awaken to Eternal Reality! And this you do unknowingly each day, whenever your heart responds to the needs of others. It is not through sensational initiations that the soul awakens and finds Divinity, but through the trials, torments, even boredom of transient existence. For this very unreality, this perplexing seeming chance teaches you to seek for inner meaning. To suffer bereavement is to search for the one you have lost. In this search you find not only the departed soul in the world of Spirits, but also knowledge of your own survival. In truth My own descent through the seven spheres of Being is your own descent. Each one of you is Dumuzi, is Ishtar. The strange monsters in the abyss of My sister Irkalla are nothing more than projections of your own half-formed emotions. The way to attain your Crown of Stars is to explore the depths. The herb of Immortality has its roots in your spine, in the black earth. As you grow spiritually, you begin to receive the Light. As a flower reaches up to the sun, so does your soul receive the life-giving rays from the God Shamash of the sun. Later you become aware of the Star Deities. So from a soul you become a Spirit, and from a Spirit you become a Deity. But you only attain your Crown of Light when you share the Light with others, whether human, beast or plant. You become like the serpent that sheds its skins, as you travel through many lives in ever-widening consciousness.  All Rights Reserved. |
