Chrismos meaning prophecy: But us a term is well known us the prophecies inspired by Apollo through Delphic Oracle "Pythia". This priestess would be seated on a tripod (Apollo's symbol of prophecy) in a state of trance, the position of the tripod was situated above a fissure in the floor of the temple, from which arose strange hallucinating vapors. She would also be chewing laurel leaves, while in this trance she only mumbled her answer, which a high priest would translate into Apollo's prophecy. Before this took place the supplicants (male only), which were known as Theopropes, had to be purified in a ritual washing ceremony which took place in the Castalian Spring. The Pythia also had to purify herself in the same manner before she performed her duties. From her sometimes garbled muttering, the priest would translate into hexameter verse. The Pythia never gave a straight answer. The oracle neither conceals nor reveals the truth, but only hints at it.
