We all know the Greek gods. They are a part of our world, our culture. We learn about them from literature, poetry and art. We see them in movies, on television. We know them. We know that Athena loves wisdom and is the patroness of clever heroes. We know of Apollo's many tragic loves and of Dionysos' devotion to his Ariadne. We know their stories, and we know them. This book, a collection of prayers to the Greek gods written by a modern devotee, is dedicated to them. 3rd edition.

Throughout history, divination has been an important tool for seeking guidance from the gods. Fortunately, several classical divination systems are available to us again today. The Oracles of Apollo shows how to use two rediscovered divination systems: the Alphabet Oracle, a system that uses the ancient Greek alphabet, and the Counsels of the Seven Sages, a series of 147 short, oracular statements that were inscribed on tablets at Delphi. This book shares divination techniques and rituals—including the use of alphabet stones, dice, staves, beads, and coins—and interpretations of the outcomes to help you integrate the wisdom of the gods and goddesses. These oracles were originally designed thousands of years ago to provide insights into practical matters and deeper issues...and they can be used again today.
