The Delphi Bloodline
Donna Del Oro
Present day descendants of the ancient, psychically powerful Delphi bloodline face the threat of extinction when an evil tycoon hunts them for his own nefarious intent, a global spy network.
When artist Athena Butler, the modern-day descendant of a powerful, ancient bloodline of psychic women, realizes she’s the target of mysterious and dangerous kidnappers, she gets help from strange sources—the spirit of an ancient ancestor and a handsome man who claims to be one of her bloodline’s Guardians. Her mental powers and his brawny skills keep them one step ahead of the mastermind behind these kidnappers. Until the time when an FBI task force decides to use Athena as bait.
Behind THE DELPHI BLOODLINE: Exploring Your Own Psychic
Abilities

Most of us
have intuitive insights into situations and people. We get “gut reactions”,
“vibes” or “feelings”. Often, we’re gratified, even surprised, when our gut
reactions prove correct, and we spend a few minutes wondering why our guts are
smarter than some people’s minds. Or why our guts can’t help us out more often.
Like, which slot machine should I play?
Which stocks should I buy? Is
this man all he claims to be?
Clairvoyance
is a skill that my heroine, Athena Butler, has in abundance. “Clairvoyance”
comes from the French, meaning “clear seeing”. It refers to the power to see an
event or image that appears in the past, present or future. This type of sight
usually does not occur with our physical eyes but with our “inner eye”. Or, as
Athena refers to it, using her higher mind to tap into the Flow.
The Flow,
to her and others of the Delphi bloodline, is an unseen dimension of energy
that encircles the planet and which contains the information and historical
records of the human race from the dawn of man to the timeless future. It can
be compared to a universal memory bank of the human mind and soul, or as the
Hindus call it, the Akashic Records for all mankind. Like a repository of human
energy and knowledge for all time, it exists on a level or dimension that
cannot be measured by any of today’s instruments. Some physicists believe this
dimension vibrates at a different rate than the energy given off by the
material world. If string theory proves correct, these energy strings and their
vibration might enable scientists and engineers to make it possible for all of
us to access this dimension.
But for now and in more common
language, we call it the “spiritual dimension”. As the modern-day descendants
of a powerful bloodline, Athena and her mother have inherited the extraordinary
abilities of this “inner eye” or “higher mind” that allows them to access this
other, unseen dimension.
When
Athena’s mother makes the mistake of letting down her guard and revealing to a
group of elite Washington, D.C. power players how her powers work, she and her
daughter become the focus of a tycoon’s ruthless plot to control and exploit
the bloodline’s powers. After her mother is kidnapped off a Baltimore street,
and Athena becomes the next target, it’s all she—and her Guardian, Kas
Skoros—can do to avoid the same fate. Although they clash at first, Athena
realizes that Kas’s mother is, herself, one of the modern-day heirs to the
bloodline, and Kas has assumed the duty of
Guardianship. Guardians of the Delphi bloodline have historical, genetic
links to the warrior-bodyguards who once protected the ancient Greek priestesses
of the Temples of Aesculapius. Together, Athena and Kas run, hide and
eventually fight back to stay alive and free, and to preserve the bloodline.
So how can
the rest of us mortals, who are not heirs to the Delphi bloodline, develop our
own clairvoyant abilities? There are numerous books on the subject and private
institutes for psychic research can be found in the United States. Many of these institutes conduct workshops
for those who want to develop their intuitive talents. There are ESP/psi labs in
highly reputable academic institutions, also, such as Stanford Research
Institute (SRI), Princeton and the University of Virginia. The Department of Defense has recruited and
trained members of the Stargate Program to be remote viewers (clairvoyants who
can “see” specific targets such as foreign missile silos and drug-running
ships). Make this topic YOUR special
hobby and soon you’ll be “seeing” things more clearly.
Donna Del Oro spent her childhood in two places, Silicon
Valley, CA and the countryside of East Texas, as her father tried several job
opportunities. Finally settling in Silicon Valley, she grew up in a bilingual,
bicultural world--Spanish on her mother's side and English on her father's.
Comfortable in both worlds, she decided upon retiring from teaching to write
about her Hispanic side. Four women's fiction books resulted and a series about
professional singers, their careers and love lives. Retired and devoting much
of her abundant free time to exercise, writing, singing and her grandson, Donna
has finally reached a point in life that totally satisfies her. Life is good
and she has no complaints, just a lot of gratitude for her many blessings.
