| "Queen of the Stars" "Goddess of dusk, Goddess of dawn, Show me the way of light; truth and beyond. My sight dims; the veil thins... Reborn a new skin I shed the fear! Goddess of morning. Goddess of day! Healed I am whole! Teach me the ways of my mothers before. Teach me the hope shown in the stars! Until we meet again thank you for the night. I can see time, I can see my way!"

"Inanna answers matters of love, divination, wine making and
leadership." (Telesco) The Goddess Inanna is famous for answering
prayers related to love, craftsman ship, and help thoughts who have
lost their way. When a person feels that they have been blinded by
untruths either factual or imaginary Inanna will help them to find the
deeper meaning.
Inanna protects her followers from physical, emotional and spiritual
danger by showing them there higher-selves plan and there souls
purpose. Inanna has been known to also help lost travellers find their
way home.
Traditionally people prayed to her to night when they were alone and
could see the stars. Lighting a pungent spice like Cinnamon and
washing the hair for purification were mandatory before a person could
call up this Goddess. In a large group the Higher Priestess would
create a large altar and place offerings on it such as melons, spice's
and berries. The best way a person can connect to Inanna is to do a
spell asking for her guidance at night under the stars.

| Poem of Inanna Lady of Heaven; starry night Lady of truth; sight beyond sight Lady of Earth send my rebirth! Endless depths. you journey long. Searching out what once was lost. Lady my soul is in need. Lady my mind continues to seek. Lady my breath leaves me still. I wait...I wait...I wait... Truth has found it's way to me. Your light, your night holds my hand. As I walk with you. F.Kennedy06(c) |
