The Oracle interior is circular. This shape pays homage to the Tholos Temple, or Sanctuary of Athena Pronaia, which stood at the gateway to the famous Oracle of Delphi. At the same time, its shape also symbolizes the concept of the Kyklos Genesion, or the great Wheel of Becoming, which is the future in a constant state of unfolding. Nine columns surround the chamber, a number sacred to Hecate.
In the center of the room is the Pythia, or oracle, herself, seated on a marble throne. Above her, on the back of the throne is a gold disk, bearing the image of a tripod from a coin minted in Delphi. Like the shape of the chamber itself, this image links the Oracle to the tradition of Delphi and other oracular sites throughout history. The tripod itself was the seat where the Pythia of Delphi traditionally sat while giving her predictions to visiting pilgrims.
As for the Pythia herself, she is dressed in a simple black robe like the other priestesses serving at the Temple. This color, along with dark blue, was traditional for the priests and priestesses serving Hecate and Artemis among the Amazon peoples in Anatolia in Asia Minor. These colors are still used today not only among Hecate's contemporary followers, but also by the Guedra dancers of the Taureg (or "Blue People") of Morocco (themselves believed to be descended from Amazonian tribes). Like the Guedra, the priestess wears a crescent moon, hearkening back to Hecate's earliest role as a moon Goddess and symbolizing the priestess' service to the Lady.
On the floor at her feet is the Oracle Wheel circle, which is part of the original Oracle, developed for the Online Temple, and from which the readings are derived. Letters from the Greek Alphabet are arranged around it in a specific sequence, and answers are given based upon their mythological and numerical significance.
Above the Pythia, the visitor may see stars painted on the ceiling dome. These symbolize not only the divinatory Arts (Astrology being one traditional art practiced by the Initiates of Hecate), but also the starry skies that Hecate has ruled over for centuries as the Maiden of the Stars. Unlike the five pointed stars of the modern day, the Greeks represented these celestial bodies with four and eight points. This graphical representation may be derived from the even older cultures of Mesopotamia, where the eight-pointed star represented another Goddess, Ishtar and the planet Venus. With the center included in the design, we can also see the sacred number nine being represented in graphical form.
