An
oracle well at least 1800 years old dedicated to the god Apollo has been
discovered in Athens. Though the powers of the oracle at Delphi and others were
famously plied by the ancient Greeks, this is the first ancient oracular
edifice to Apollo to have been found in Athens itself, Dr. Jutta Stroszeck,
director of the Kerameikos excavation on behalf of the German Archaeological
Institute at Athens, told Haaretz. The well would have been used for
hydromancy, a method of divination by means of water.
The
ancients routinely sought oracular guidance not only on the future, for simple
everyday matters, such as finding/keeping a lover, ahead of a journey, after
falling ill, and so forth – or applying for asylum in the sanctuary. June 7 http://www.haaretz.com/jewish/archaeology/1.723632
Cardinal Ingresses of the Sun are among the important tools
of mundane astrology. The current Aries Ingress chart at Athens provides a clue
to the discovery of the ancient well. Notice that the Aries ingress Sun on the
Ascendant forms a T-square with the TNPs Cupido-Hades-Kronos aligned with the
meridian. Hades is “ancient”, Cupido is “housing or structures” while Kronos is
“famous” so when put together them together we have a reference to “a famous ancient building”.
Also the TNP Poseidon linked to religion and by association to temples is
anchored to the configuration so that we are discussing a famous ancient temple.
But the chart goes even further, TNPs Hades and Kronos are part of the Chinese
asterism Tsing – The Well!
Readers who care to progress the chart to June 7, the date
of the news, will find that the progressed Ascendant reaches a conjunction to
the TNPs Hades-Kronos triggering the configuration.
