Excellent read. What is your hope for us, your reader? After reading & understanding these Epic Tales of ancient times?
Interesting to read of the history behind our journey on earth as humans. And how our consciousness and psyche search for meaning in life. ❤️🔥 following 🙏🏽
Thank you for the comment, Lizzie! I suppose my hope is that, by reading and understanding these tales, we see how similar we are to ancient cultures, how our beliefs and the meaning that we ascribe to aspects of life and death haven't really changed that much. It speaks to something inherent in the human experience. Through time and place, we all build from the same stories. It's a truly fascinating thing!
This was stunning—both the storytelling and the historical depth. I’ve always been fascinated by descent narratives, and your framing of Inanna and Ereshkigal’s story as layered with power, grief, and transformation really resonated. As someone doing public history work on women’s lives and silences in the archives, this kind of myth feels especially powerful. Subscribed—thank you for this haunting and beautiful exploration.
