“Why are you called on the journey to the island of the great goddess Aphrodite?

Ancient Greek temples

Ancient sacred places are built on electromagnetic points on Earth. They are the points through which Earth breathes. They are also connected to certain star systems in the universe and act as a base for the energies that come from these systems. This is why a spiritual journey to places of high scientific and spiritual energy helps us connect to our esoteric sanctuary; we step outside of time and in between the veils of realities where anything is possible.

In a sacred environment, we are receptive to the voice and the presence of the goddess in a way that we experience the extraordinary and the miraculous something that we all expect in visiting places like the ancient temples.

Away from our everyday life of stress and responsibilities, an enormous space opens up in our hearts for the Divine to enter, to heal and guide us.

“Begin your journey with an open heart and a beginner’s mind and let the experience to teach you”.

The Sanctuary of Apollo Hylates

The Sanctuary of Apollo Hylates at the ancient Greek city of Kourion, is one of the most important and famous temples on the ancient island of Cyprus and holds significant importance for all Greeks.The temple is dedicated to the Supreme Being of Light Apollo, “The Sun god”. It is called Hylates because he is the protector of the trees. The temple is a bastion for the powerful energy related to the energy of the Sun and the Complete Light.The temple was constructed in Greece in 8 B.C. and was identical to the ancient temples of Epidaurus and Argolida.

The temple was a primary place of worship till it discontinued its service to people in the 4 century B.C.

The Secret of the temple

In the center of the temple resides the ancient Sun Disk that holds the wisdom regarding the spiritual connection to Apollo and the energy of the sun.

On the 21st of June, when Summer Solstice is celebrated, the light of the sun is aligned with the Sun Disk, providing a rare opportunity to spiritually connect with ancient wisdom and energy. This event is taking place once a year and falls on the day of summer solstice.

Apollo, who is the supreme Being of light is responsible for the spiritual evolution of humans. Summer solstice is the most important day for Gaia and the evolution of humanity.

Why summer solstice is so important

Be at the right place at the right time

The summer solstice is the time to celebrate the death of the ego and the awakening of consciousness. It’s only on this day when the spiritual gate of Sirius, the Spiritual Sun, opens to assist humans on their journey to spiritual evolution

Apollo the Supreme being of Light and son of the Sun, is riding a chariot of four horses, representing the process of achieving enlightenment by attaining the four Divine qualities that Apollo holds. It is a time to celebrate the triumph of light over darkness in the individual and the return to the Whole Light, Oneness, God / Goddess All That Is, the Eternal Consciousness.

Ancient Greeks/ Ellines have aligned their sacred site of Delphi, to Sirius which is the Spiritual Sun, to summer solstice. On this day they held celebrations to honor Apollo and to receive the blessings from the energies coming through from Sirius on to Gaia. They celebrated the alignment and Union of the Sun and Gaia, fertility and the defeat of the darkness, the lower self, and the ego which is symbolized by a snake or a dragon. We often find in ancient Hellenic arts, Apollo killing a dragon or a snake which represents the death of the ego.

The Sun is the only gate through which the source can send Light to our galaxy and to Gaia. This is why the sun has such an important spiritual significance for the indigenous people not only in Greece/ Hellas, but in the entire world.

Goddess consciousness or feminine energy is a state of awareness connected to the wisdom of the heart and gives rise to Divine Masculine as a cosmic mother for All creation; that’s our true power of creation.

Aphrodite’s Sanctuary in KoukliaThe island of Cyprus has always been considered the birth place of Aphrodite. Homer, who was a philosopher in 8 B.C, referred to goddess Aphrodite as Cypriot “Aphrodite Kyprida”. She was worshipped the island of Cyprus from 12 century B.C until 4 century A.C.After the Christians outlawed the ancient Greek practice and their gods, the Cypriots protected their goddess and maintained the tradition and connection in secret.The great goddess Aphrodite is a warrior Supreme Being of Light called also Urania Aphrodite. Her name Urania, declares her cosmic ascendance (origins) and her sovereignty in Heaven. She is an erotic and unifying power holding the energy of fertility and abundance of life. Aphrodite came from another star system called Cassiopeia to our planet Gaia – after the invitation of Apollo – to teach humans unconditional love.Aphrodite’s temple in Kouklia was constructed in 12 B.C by the king and goddess favor High priest Kyneras; it was a temple fame in the old times and of the greatest importance for the ancient Greeks , for the Mediterranean people and the Romans in the later years.The great goddess didn’t allowed people to offer sacrifices of blood, but only flowers, essences and beautiful aromas. This is the reason why Greeks created the first well known factory, in the ancient world, for aromas in Cyprus.

Aphrodite’s birth place

The oldest written myth of Aphrodite’s birth is by writer Hesiod’s, in the 8th century B.C, in “Theogony”, meaning creation of the cosmos.“In the beginning there was the chaos and then Gaia and Uranus were created, who gave birth to monstrous sons.

One of them named Cronus, cut his father’s testicles so that he put an end to the creation of monsters.The testicles fallen in the ocean; for a long time they were carried away by the waves, until they reached the south sea shores of the island of Cyprus.Suddenly there was a lot of sea foam around them and then a beautiful goddess emerged out of it. Eros and Passion escorted her at the shore. This why she is called Aphrodite, meaning the One that came out of the sea foam.According to Hesiod the birth of the great goddess put an end to the creation of monsters and a new era of creation through love and passion begin.

It’s a fairly large, modern resort with large hotels, villas, cottages, restaurants, cafes and pubs.Many guidebooks describe the local beaches as fantastic and rightfully so. The crystal-clear waters along the entire coast with the beaches of fine golden sand mean they have been awarded the prestigious Blue Flag, which rates their cleanliness under the guidelines of the eco-initiative, Greening Cyprus Beaches, which started in 1987.
