Join me on today’s episode as we explore the ancient Sumerian goddess Inanna, one of the oldest and most fascinating deities in recorded history. Together we will journey through the myth of her descent into the Underworld, explore her other surviving myths and discover how you can begin working with her in your own spiritual practice and why you may feel called to do so.
We will also discuss what Inanna’s descent can teach us about navigating our own personal underworlds during times of loss, transformation and rebirth. Finally we will delve into her intriguing connections with Hermetic philosophy and the enduring theories that link the Sumerian gods to extraterrestrial origins.
