Visit to the Underworld (Part I)

I asked Hades to take me to the Underworld to start working on our project called "Visions of the Underworld". I made an anchor, a space of protection, and let fear and doubt behind me.

I called out to him and asked him to take me by his side. I felt his presence around me in my room; he is a particular kind of calm and peaceful energy, then I saw dark stairs in front of me, he was there, he took me by the hand and led me down into the cave.

I saw the end and dim blue lights getting stronger as we approached the end of the tunnel. Then we appeared in a much larger space, stalactites hung from the ceiling and had blue crystals providing light.

“This is where the souls land.”  He says.

Hades points to a cliff on the left, a beam of light appears and then a glowing white sphere descends leaving a trail of light as it floats in the air. It moves in a swirling motion until it reaches our level.

I try to see around me, my vision blurs for moments when I lose focus, and details are still unclear.

"You'll get used to it, don't worry. With practice, you'll get to see more detail."

I felt dizzy and nausea set in, that's my sign that this experience is real. There is a strange silence in this place, the lights flicker like fireflies.

In front of us is a harbor and a river disappearing in the distance, I see the cave stretching beyond my sight and the rock formations.

Then, a boat appears out of nowhere, made of dark wood and metal inlays; it has a large spiral design on the front, and, for now, that's all I get to see of it. We enter the boat and behind us I see a tall dark figure guiding the boat, Charon.
