The ancient goddess Inanna, known in Akkadian as Ishtar, was worshiped in the Cradle of Civilization for thousands of years. Today, She is seeing a resurgence of interest among Pagans, Goddess-worshipers and spiritualists of all stripes. But these would-be devotees of Ishtar, the "Queen of Heaven and Earth", are all confronted with the same challenges: Where do I start? How do I learn more about Ishtar? How should I honor Her? These questions and more are answered at last within this book. Experienced Pagan author Sharon LaBorde guides readers through everything they need to begin working with the goddess Ishtar, including prayers and hymns to Ishtar and related deities; historically appropriate offerings; how to build and consecrate a sacred space; and a year of feasts and holy days based on the calendars of ancient Sumer and Babylon. Now you, too, can welcome Ishtar, that "most awe-inspiring Goddess", and the rest of Her pantheon into your spiritual practice. Ishtar, it is sweet to give You praise!
