Wow what a day.
Have you ever had a day when you fulfil a vow you made to a Goddess? I did today when I visited the sacred island of Delos, the birth place of Artemis, goddess of the moon and her twin brother Apollo.
The energy in the ground of that place was intense. The stone streets glittered with silver and gold. Ancient ruins were crumbling. The first place you walk into is the slave market, thenot the gossip square where everyone gathered to see who was there and what they were wearing.
A guide showed us around for a while pointing out where the main things were and feeding her favorite cat. She was the epitome of the crazy Greek cat lady.
After walking down passed the line of guardian lions I did a little yoga in the quiet Grove that was where Leto gave birth to her twins. No one else went in there, I suppose because there weren't any ruins, just shrubs and some dragonflies. The energy is still giving me goose bumps.
From there I walked up to the museum that has some of the statues, mosaics and trinkets that were found there. Amazing.
I found a spot near the ruins of the temple to do yoga. There weren't many people around. The power and energy from the sun was more intense than I have experienced before. When I finished, I looked down into my phone and the sun created a halo behind my head, turning my wild hair gold
Oh no! I've turned into a crazy Greek cat lady - I'm feeding a cat fish for dinner under my table!
Everything is still rocking from my ferry ride to the islands today. I vomited 5 times on the way over. The sea was rough. It's so windy here. Thankfully the wind had calmed down by the time i came back and the rocking boat sent me to sleep, not to Chuck up.
After amazing Delos I went to Mykonos. The view was extraordinarill beautiful with the blue water and boats in the harbour with the white houses on the hill and windmills in the distance.
But for a party island! There were no people! It was totally dead! I'd call it relaxing. It was extremely windy . Maybe the party goers were inside. I don't know. But is was still a fantastic island.
When I got back I rushed up the hill to do a yoga class. Karmic pay back, I was the only one in the class. I'm going to go back to spend the morning doing 4 different classes.
Good night. I'm exhausted. And sunburnt.
