    Apollo and Heracles somewhat remind me of Lugh and the sons of Tuireann, especially the most prominent son Brian. The sons slay Lugh's father; Cian, and must be absolved from this deed by Lugh, in order to do so, the sons must go and do many labors to retrieve magic items for Lugh, like the labors of Heracles. in the end the sons die, just as Heracles does when he is shot by the poison arrow of the centaur (perhaps like the plague filled arrows of Apollo) before he ascends to god-hood.
    Tuireann of course has been etymologically linked to Taranis, who is thought to be the Gaulish reflex of Indo-European Perkwunos, and Heracles is also thought to be the Indo-European Perkwunos.
    Apollo and Lugh are very similar, having connections to arts, ranged weapons, justice, the sun, wolves, and the slaying of evil beings. I wonder if these two stories are reflexes of the struggle between the warrior storm god Perkwunos, and the enlightened justice god of many names.

    The slaying of the dragon by the light sounds a lot like not only some biblical narrations of the defeat of leviathan. But sounds a lot like the symbolism to consciousness realizing its dominion over and within kundalini or the electrical energy of.the spine (staff/shaft/tree). Nervous system also referred to as tree of life. Third eye being the light dwelling above the bottom where the serpent energy lays dormant for most part.

      -All from the biblical king of Babylon, Nimrod ...
      -really his false reincarnation, as son, Tammuz ( first unholy trinity ).
      -Tammuz was born unto his unfaithful wife Semiramis whose aldutery bore the child. She wanted to retain power as Queen in Babylon, so she conceived a story, whence she claimed the slain king nimrod came to her in a dream touched her belly and impregnated her w/child that was to be his reincarnation.
      -Nimrod than ascended to become the sun god.
      -Tammuz was born, and later married his mother Semiramis ( similar to the Oedipus Rex tale ).
      *The Most High God of Israel destroyed the tower of babyl, breaking up all the languages of the world ( babyl - confusion; Lon - land of = land of confusion ). This is the primary reason we see so many similarities between all these pagan gods and their stories.
      Other examples:
      - Odin, Frigi and Thor in Norse mythology
      - Osiris, Isis, Horace and sun god Ra in Egypt
      - Jupiter, Venus, Mars in Roman mythology
      - Enki, Anu, Enlil ( Enki’s brother - equivalent to Osiris’ brother Set in Egypt )....
      - Quetzocuatal ( Aztec mythology )
      * sol invictus
      * libertas ( lady liberty 🗽)
      * Gaia
      * all the stared examples above are Semiramis or the moon goddess.
      - and on and on and on.... we see these same characters in EVERY mythology in the history of the mankind. all from the biblical king of Babylon. I would go into more detail here but I’m just giving the cliff notes. All glory, honor and praise be to the Great I Am, The Most High God and His one Begotten son Immanuel ( immanu - with us is; el - God = with us is God ) also known as the messiah Christ, Jesus! Grace and peace be with you all.

    My personal reading is that Apollo is derived from Avestan Apara, meaning something like "one who separates". I support this by the curious fact that the names of Apolos sisters in Greek, Artemis, and Latin, Diana, both appear to have their origin in Iranian terms with closely related meanings. Artemis potentially comes from Asha Amesha, with the meaning Eternal Truth, and Diana potentially coming from Daena, and meaning something like Dharma; the Eternal Truth/Natural Law.

      It's actually not a religion but philosophy and it's not mythology like how people used to call it but decoding and everything has a meaning. The only issue is that you can not understand the meaning 100% if you don't speak Greek because you can't translate some Greek words in other languages. The Greek religion is based on philosophy. Greek's were forced into Christianity and all Greek philosophers were killed by Christians. Some Greeks are unfortunately too brainwashed but there are many Greeks who do not accept Christianity. The real Greek religion is a philosophy that teaches people that they were created by God and God made them like him and not inferior to him and teaches through philosophy how they can take advantage of the powers they have to become better, especially the power of their mind. Εxactly the opposite of Christianity which talks about a god who punishes when you don't fear him. The twelve gods are symbolic and symbolize the strengths and weaknesses that humans have.

Apollo for instance is commonly related to St. Michael, in Greek mythology he was the son of Zeus or Jupiter if you like, and grandson of Cronos, or Saturn... which is why it is interesting. His grandfather has a very interesting history, he is one of the few deities that can be found in all known religions in one form or another. Considering the fact that St. Michael in some aspects is the grandson of the black cube is a very deep rabbit hole to go down

    Maybe clan kin with you a ways back. Your insights into trinities and ties between regional cults has been amazing to hear. I've been largely ignorant of Celt/Gael myth up until now. Your info on Lugh and trinities has caused me to connect dots I didn't before. Kronus/Zas/Apollo made some weird things click, especially regarding Apollo's cthonic aspects. Did you know Hermes and Apollo share the same planet?

    The serpent(Drakon) Python was the wisdom Goddess, the titans being the stewards of a golden age. The Delphi story tells of a retrogressive transition Apollo representing the Pantheon and in all probability was an alter ego of Zeus. Apollo was also known as the wolf god there is a temple dedicated to Apollo at lycios which literally translates as wolf god. Interestingly the founders of Rome Romulus and Remus were also suckled by a she wolf as infants indicating the continuation of the cult.

      Titans are moreso representatives of the Matriarchal tribes and Gods of the Pre-IE/Pre-Aryans. Above all, Saturn/Kronos who represented Time itself, and the Times of Old that wishes to consume and resented Youth and Timelessness. Apollo transcends the "cycle", but if the cycle exists for those like the Olympians and Zeus, then it would actually be a transition from the Kali Yuga or Age of Wolves or Lead, back into the Golden Age.

      If the Dragon is the Goddess, then her son is the Wolf/Coyote. So, yes, this is the alter ego of Zeus in the sense that the Lion was supposed to be God #2 and was considered the alter ego of Jupiter. Our problem is that the Goddess who was a Lion was seen as the one crying (Aquarius & Leo depending on the era) ... in our case the Flood arrives in Capricorn. Different people had God #2 as Jupiter or Dionysus (a better pick). So what one people might call Lucifer another people could call the Son of Man or the Lord or the Beast or any number of other things! The key to the problem is figuring out which one comes as a god of darkness like Camazotz. See Amos or Joel. They knew. Soon our Plague will give way to the Shadow of Death.

There are also two ancient writers (i don't remember which ones) who reported a sweet smell coming from the oracle's room. How did you conclude that there's no evidence of this gas?

    I always found it illogical for Gods, and Titans as well, to not perfectly marry eachother, for example Zeus and Hera married but other siblings didn't even tho there is a perfect number of them
    If we look at Apollo and his connection with agriculture and constant connections with Poseidon, isn't it more logical for Apollo and Artemis to be the children of Poseidon and Demeter, I mean Poseidon was considered the main god in chthonic greek religion mainly because his Earthshaker epithet, and I think that all Cronus' and Rhea's children represent the conscious mind so it's not really a big difference, the only problem is that connection of Apollo with Coeus and Phoebe is not there anymore but some myths say that the Apollo's gift of prophecy and Artemis' hunting dogs were given by Pan, genealogy of Pan is not certain but it was said that he is older than Olympians so there is a possibility for him to be the son of Coeus and Phoebe
