Oracle of Dana


The very first issue of Isian News, published in the summer of 1976 opened with an oracle of Dana! It is presented here, along with the introductory sentence exactly as it appeared in Isian News:

"The following message given to a Priestess of the Goddess Dana of Ireland may fittingly herald our first issue of Isian News.

Priestess: I feel the presence of Dana. The light of gold is behind her. She has a great rainbow colored aura. These are her words:

The earth has its jewels. For know that though the lesser cannot comprehend the great, yet the greater comprehends, permeates and suffuses the lesser. And this is what is meant by the immanence of the Divine Spirit. Many of you have sought urgently to rise to the heights and to meet Me there. Yet am I also found in the depths. I am the all-pervading Spirit that sparkles in the crystal, that is the treasure in the depth of the well, that comforts the lonely in heart, and is trampled underfoot by the proud who bruise the humble weed. And this knowledge also is the message of the New Era. The possession of the treasures of Nature without and within comes not through conquest, not through bitter struggles, not through suppression and rejection: but through the alchemy of transmutation. Growth is extension in consciousness.

Seek for the buried treasure of the earth, the jewels of Wisdom and Love. I will help all those who seek my aid.”
