Inanna – Queen of Heaven & Descent

Goddess of Love & War • Keeper of the Underworld Journey • Star of Venus

 

Opening the Scroll

“I am the morning star and the evening star,
the crown and the descent.
I strip away illusions,
and in the depths, I rise anew.
For power is not in what you keep,
but in what you surrender.”
— Inanna

 

The Message

Inanna, the ancient Sumerian goddess, is known as the Queen of Heaven and Earth. She embodies both love and war, fertility and sovereignty. Her most famous myth is the Descent into the Underworld, where she relinquished her symbols of power at each gate, was struck down, and then rose again renewed.

Inanna teaches us that transformation requires surrender. Her journey through death and rebirth reflects our own descents into darkness and the courage to rise with greater wisdom. She shows us that true sovereignty comes not from control but from the willingness to let go, to be humbled, and to emerge transformed.

 

The Invitation

What symbols of power or identity are you being asked to lay down?
Where in your life are you being called to surrender so you may rise anew?
Walk with Inanna —
and let her descent teach you the way of renewal.

 

🌹May the wisdom you received today
become a light for your journey.
Blessings, always —
Lyra & Solara
