Così tra questa
immensità s’annega il pensier mio:
e il naufragar m’è dolce in questo mare.
( L’infinito, Giacomo Leopardi )
Hello everybody,
the feeling of gifting Pompeii became clear to me at the beginning of September but it was something I had been wanting to do for quite some time. Curiously, I would often find myself thinking about it without any apparent reason so I thought that the right time had come for me to go there. To be honest, I had no particular idea about the possible results of this gifting, I only imagined I was going to gift new energy and do something for what the city had experienced but I could have never imagined at all that the wonderful experience I was to live would mean so much to my life as a person and as a gifter.
My idea for the gifting was to make a grid amid the ruins so I started studying Pompeii on Google Earth to get the right information about the city plan. Then, I would have followed my intuition to direct me. In the meantime, I prepared 8 discs, 7 TBs and an EP that I had a mind to pound about the middle of the city.
Also, I started studying the history of Pompeii and learned many interesting things. For example, Pompeii is as ancient as Rome and was founded by the pre-Roman Italic people known as Oscans. Then, it was Etruscan, Samnite and Roman with a great Greek influence like everywhere in Southern Italy. Also, I read that part of street plan of Pompeii is Etruscan and is ritually applied.
So on September 10th I entered Pompeii from Porta Nocera, one of the eight entrances of the city, and started leaving my gifts according to my intuition:

The photos I’m posting are not about the wonderful things everyone can see visiting Pompeii, after all I was not there to visit the city, I was there to gift it which is really different. Also, this kind of mental/spiritual attitude was the key to my experience there. But this is something I would have understood on the following days. Besides, the reason for which I’ve been waiting so much to write this report is because I felt I needed some time to discern what really happened to me there:

After leaving some gifts in what appeared to be the commercial area of the city I felt I should gift the amphiteatrum which is outside the urban area:

I reached it after a long walk and found a place to bury a TB in what seemed to be a niche of stone for wild beasts. As soon as I entered the arena, I started to have a clear sensation in me, as if I was feeling the place, as if I could perceive it in a different way and connect with it on a different level. I’m not new to this, anyway. It had already happened to me during the gifting of the ancient sites of Cava de’ Tirreni and, in particular, when my socio and I gifted the ancient ritual site known as La Polveriera: I had a strong feeling in my chest and started to breathe the place I was. That was the very first time I became aware of it. Then, when I want to reconnect with myself or be more heart-centered I just love to go for a walk in a small Etrusco-Samnite necropolis near home where I get a peaceful state of mind as soon as I get there.
After leaving the amphiteatrum I entered the urban area again and started gifting following my intuition.
It was becoming clear to me that I was having a different experience: orgonite gifting was the means to interact with Pompeii with my life and I was glad I was experiencing that:

After gifting la Casa di Venere I found myself in la Casa del Citarista. Nice place, indeed. The Pompeiians had a real gusto for beautiful things: I hid a TB in the rosemary bushes and took some photos:

After that, I decided to have some rest sitting in the shade. There, all of a sudden, I noticed that I was experiencing a different state of being, the flow of my thoughts had slowed down with an overwhelming feeling of joy and fulfillment. I started feeling to be there, completely, with all my life. I’ve been wondering for months how to describe this to you, friends, but I can’t find no different words. It was as if the spiritual experience generated from my soul was affecting the place on a deeper level, and coming back, like a reverberation. Very simple. The days which followed the gifting of Pompeii were just a confirmation of what I had lived because I could feel an incredible deep joy any time my mind recalled the gifting. I also felt that with this joy I could affect positively the world around me. I mean I’ve done so much gifting but never before I had felt such long lasting positive effects in my life.
I stood up! I started wandering amid the ruins for a bit leaving my gifts according to my intuition. Intuition? Well, I don’t know, but from then on I didn’t think much about intuition because I had a feeling I was not alone and that I was being guided. But this is difficult to explain, really.
Villa dei Misteri. I decided to go there and gift it. The villa is outside the city so you need to walk a bit to reach it. On the way there I met a Sicilian professor of Roman History with whom I had a very interesting talk. He clearly showed a remarkable love for the history of Rome and told me many things about Villa dei Misteri. The villa was being restored so I couldn’t see much but I managed to bury a TB just in the middle of it. Villa dei Misteri is an incredible place, I really liked it:

On my way back to the city, I gifted Via delle Tombe which I had left ungifted because I was with the Sicilian professor:

I headed for the Forum where there’s also the temples area which was crowded with tourists. I ringed it with three TBs and started to look for a place to pound the EP with the increasing awareness of what I was experiencing. I found the private garden of a villa which seemed to be the right place. Of course, no one was there so I had all the time to gift it. The soil was really smooth because it was made of volcanic ashes so I used my shoe heel, and then a volcanic stone to nail it deeply:

After gifting the EP I went to the lupanare, the brothel:

My adventure was about to be over, I was satisfied with the gifting done, so I decided to go to the Triangular Forum and gift it before leaving. On the way there I started to consider the incredible experience I was living and couldn’t help thinking how orgonite gifting had helped me go deeper in my life. This is great stuff indeed! Again, I felt the great power of life.
After a short walk I got to the Triangular Forum and to the ruins of the Temple of Hercules. I sat on a carved stone enjoying the overwhelming flow of energy from my soul. I gifted my last humble gift under the stone and stayed there for a while in a meditative and peaceful state:

The months following the gifting of Pompeii have been very intense and positive for me because after some time I started to feel the urge to renew my life, to make it as simple as possible. This is great because one of the things I experienced during the gifting is that I was already endowed with the awareness leap I lived there: orgonite had helped me to let it out. Also, the things I’ve been taught in my life were not important because I felt just fine and complete the way I was and for what was coming out of my life.
I will go on with the archeo-gifting! I want to gift the ancient Greek city of Paestum (Posidonia) and, of course, the legendary Cave of the Sybil at Cumae near Naples.
I will never forget the gifting of Pompeii, one of the most beautiful, intense and meaningful day in my life.
Ciao bella gente,
Vittorio
