Oracle: (a definition)

An oracle is a person or agency considered to be a source of wise counsel or prophetic opinion; an infallible authority, usually spiritual in nature. It may also be a revealed prediction or precognition of the future, from deities, that is spoken through another object (e.g.: runemal) or life-form (e.g.: augury and auspice). In the ancient world many sites gained a reputation for the dispensing of oracular wisdom: they too became known as “oracles”, and the oracular utterances, called khrēsmoi in Greek, were often referred to under the same name — a name derived from the Latin verb ōrāre, to speak.

THE ORACLE OF PAN Questions & Replies:

Question:

I have been having disturbing dreams about my future.  What does this mean?  Should I be worried that something bad will happen to me?

The Oracle Reply:

Pondering dreams of the night,

from a source so mysterious,

may cause alarm or even fright,

and make you feel delirious.

Heed them not, they’re not important.

Dreams by day, while you’re awake,

are under your command and portent.

The story of your life is yours to make.

Question:

My mother and father want me to go to college and get a degree in law.  I am totally not interested.  I am an artist.  I want to paint and draw.  They say I can’t make any money at that and won’t pay for my education.  What should I do?

The Oracle Reply:

What Affects are you able to cause?

What Reality will you believe?

What Causes are you willing to perceive?

Your  Universe.  You are the Law.

Question:

My boyfriend wants to get married, but he doesn’t have a job and I work to support both of us.  He doesn’t have any ambition to do anything since he got out of the Army.  He just hangs out with his buddies and drinks beer and plays video games most of the time.  I’m not sure he’ll ever change.  I love him, but I’m not sure that getting married is the best thing to do.

The Oracle Reply:

You alone can cause your fate.

You have the power to create.

Take care of people who

Are willing to take care of you.
