Come discuss the worship and conjuration of Ishtar, Inanna, Aphrodite, other historically related deities/spirits, and their entourages. "Appearing in more literary compositions than any other deity, Inanna embodied endless complexities and contradictions: an unbridled goddess at once upholding and destroying the status quo; a passionate goddess engaging in romantic and destructive erotic love; a heavenly goddess who trod the underworld; a feminine goddess who was sometimes portrayed as a bearded warrior; and a mercurial goddess bestowing tender mercies even as she moved freely from one conquest to another.""[Astarte] is often paired with Baal and also — in a warlike form called Astoreth — with Set. The Mesopotamian goddesses Ishtar and Inanna are other forms of this goddess. The mysteries of Inanna and Dumuzi, Ishtar and Tammuz, and of Astarte and Adonis, were an influence upon the Egyptian mysteries of Isis and Osiris, in which a Queen Astarte appears. Given the combined influence of the cult of Isis, and the Syrian Goddess, on the later Christian cult of Mary, Astarte is among the most influential and important of all Classical deities."If you're interested in working with the Queen of Heaven, the best things you can do are to start meditating, making offerings, and maybe banishing. Preferably do all three daily, or at least a few times a week. This will get her attention and improve your ability to communicate with her, as well as generally train your occult abilities.Pastebin: pastebin.com/SQmZvivkOther recommended resources:Enheduanna and the old Mythsmostlydeadlanguages.tumblr.comRod and RingLioness: The Song of InannaLiber Astarte, on worship: sacred-texts.com/oto/lib175.htm/sum/moning Information Page, for Goetia to work with Astaroth: pastebin.com/ZHPM0KVzThe True Grimoire by JSKLucidariumRudd's GoetiaPandemonium by JSKCrossed KeysChasing the DragonConsorting With Spirits by MillerMisc Resources: https://pastebin.com/9cVvQp8a

Man, this cult fell off hard
>>41860617I used to keep it going by talking about feet but I started to question my faith.
>>41860617There never was much to begin with
>>41860626>>41860655You cannot make an actual religion based entirely off gooning and feet. Like you can try, but people aren't going to have much faith in it, or take it very seriously. All the hard questions people toss at Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, the major world religions that aren't just small cults or sects, if this was ever going to be more than a shitty gooner LARP meme, Inanna (and the Sumerian pantheon beyond her that you guys always ignore) would have to answer them. Like why does Inanna let kids get cancer? Why should someone live, maybe even die for her? If you wouldn't sit down with someone who's child just died and seriously use this religion to try and comfort them, if you wouldn't talk about this face to face with people in serious situations without feeling stupid and/or ashamed, it's not a serious religion, it's not even a serious cult. It's a shitty porn meme.
>>41860707I've actually asked for people who are regulars to actively post things, only to be told "Go find it yourself". I appreciate you're taking this seriously, but as another outsider, it's impossible to take it seriously when they don't
Passing through this thread to pay my respects to the Queen of Heaven, of Love and War, Starry Ishtar.
>>41860617I used to participate a few years ago but I never had a single prayer answered so I figured it's not for me. Surprised it's still around desu
