Sudden Image/Insight

[qos]

I just received an amazing message (via FetLife) from another daughter of Ereshkigal who identifies with the Sacred Whore tradition, lives in my city, and is married to a priestess of Inanna! (Thanks, passionandsoul, for the intro!)

When I responded to her, I found myself writing the following:

I serve both Ereshkigal and Inanna, having been initiated into the Mysteries of both so I am able to stand at the point between the Great Below and the Great Above and mediate both Their power. I am the darkness between the stars and the starlight in the underworld.


That last sentence was completely new and unexpected, but it feels very right.

That last sentence was completely new and unexpected, but it feels very right.

Not to mention BEAUTIFUL!

It was indeed very beautiful. Don't you love it when the gods decide to let you know how very beautiful and special they think you are?

You know, I hadn't even thought of it that way. Thank you.

Yes, this. Perfect.

I loved that last sentence also, I feel that I personally relate to it as well.

That's awesome! Not just finding someone of a similar current, but in your area!

I think the work of being "between" is part of the essence of being a priest/ess or spirit worker. Unless we are able to partake of both, we can't do our work.

Beautiful and profound.
