Inanna — The Star That Refused To Disappear
from Bloodline: A Story We Forgot to Tell · host Wildly Woven
For those who were told not to ask… and asked anyway.Inanna is one of the oldest recorded goddesses in human history. Emerging from ancient Mesopotamia more than 5,000 years ago.But she is not a relic.In this episode of Bloodline Myths, we follow the full arc of Inanna in Sumerian mythology: her descent into the underworld, her death and return, her sacred sexuality, her wars, and her role in kingship rituals in ancient Sumer.Long before later goddesses like Ishtar, Aphrodite, or Venus, Inanna embodied love, war, sovereignty, and cosmic authority. She was associated with the planet Venus: the Morning Star and the Evening Star. A celestial body that disappears and returns, mirroring her descent and resurrection.We trace how her story moved through ancient Mesopotamia, becoming Ishtar in Akkadian tradition, influencing Mediterranean goddess traditions, and echoing later as the Queen of Heaven, and even as the fallen Morning Star.This episode explores:– The original Sumerian Inanna myths– The underworld descent and its symbolism– Venus as a sacred celestial sign– Sacred kingship and priestess rites– How powerful feminine deities were reshaped across culturesBefore the rewrite.Before the reframing.Before the star was renamed.If you are drawn to mythology, ancient history, divine feminine archetypes, or the hidden architecture of religious transformation, this is where the thread runs deep.The star disappeared.But it did not go out.New episodes every three weeks.Follow and share to help others rediscover the oldest stories in the world.Instagram: @BloodlineMythsTikTok: @WildlyWoven279Also available on YouTube.This soundtrack was composed by Bloodline.
