By their armies – צבאתם  tsibotham, from צבא  tsaba, to assemble, meet together, in an orderly or regulated manner, and hence to war, to act together as troops in battle; whence צבאות  tsebaoth, troops, armies, hosts. It is from this that the Divine Being calls himself יהוה צבאות  Yehovah tsebaoth, the Lord Of Hosts or armies, because the Israelites were brought out of Egypt under his direction, marshalled and ordered by himself, guided by his wisdom, supported by his providence, and protected by his might. This is the true and simple reason why God is so frequently styled in Scripture the Lord of hosts; for the Lord did bring the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their Armies.

Yahshua is YHWH tsevaot

Jos 5:14  And He said, No, for I now come as the Commander of the army of YHWH. And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and worshiped. And he said to Him, What does my Lord speak to His slave?
Isa 55:4  Behold, I gave Him a Witness to peoples, a Leader and Commander of peoples.

Rev 19:11  And I saw Heaven being opened. And, behold! A white horse, and He sitting on it having been called Faithful and True. And He judges and wars in righteousness.
Rev 19:12  And His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on His head many diadems, having a name that had been written, which no one knows except Himself;
Rev 19:13  and having been clothed in a garment which had been dipped in blood. And His name is called The Word of God.
Rev 19:14  And the armies in Heaven followed Him on white horses, being dressed in fine linen, white and pure.

The Camp of Yisrael

Num 2:2  The sons of Israel shall encamp by their fathers’ house, every man with his own standard, according to the standards. They shall encamp around the tabernacle of the congregation, afar off.
Num 2:3  And those who encamp on the east side, toward the sunrising, are of the standard of Judah’s camp, according to their armies, the ruler of the sons of Judah being Nahshon the son of Amminadab.

Num 2:9  All numbered of the camp of Judah were a hundred and eighty six thousand and four hundred, by their armies. They shall set forth first.
Num 2:10  On the south side shall be the standard of the camp of Reuben, according to their armies; the ruler of the sons of Reuben being Elizur the son of Shedeur.
Num 2:18  On the west side shall be the standard of the camp of Ephraim, according to their armies; the ruler of the sons of Ephraim being Elishama the son of Ammihud.
Num 2:25  On the north side shall be the standard of the camp of Dan, according to their armies; the ruler of the sons of Dan being Ahiezer the son of Ammishaddai.

The Camp of Yisrael was divided up as the 12 constellations

Standards of the Tribes

According to rabbinical tradition, the standard of Judah bore the figure of a lion, that of Reuben the likeness of a man, or of a man’s head, that of Ephraim the figure of an ox, and that of Dan the figure of an eagle; so that the four living creatures united in the cherubic forms described by Ezekiel were represented upon these four standards” (Keil and Delitzsch, Commentary on the Pentateuch, III, 17). A variant of this tradition gives as the standard of Reuben, “unstable as water” (Gen_49:4 the King James Version), a Man and a River, and of Dan, “Dan shall be a serpent in the way” (Gen_49:17), an Eagle and a Serpent. These four forms are also found in the constellations in the four quarters of the heavens. Aquarius, the man with a stream of water, and Leo were the original zodiacal constellations of the two solstices, Taurus was that of the spring equinox, and Aquila and Serpens were close to the autumnal equinox, the latter being actually upon the colure.

4 Living Creatures

Surrounding the throne of Elohim are the 4 living creatures which correspond to the 4 cardinal points of the zodiac and to the camp of Yisrael.

Eze 1:10  And the likeness of their faces: the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side to the four of them; and the face of an ox on the left to the four of them, and the face of an eagle to the four of them.

Rev 4:2  And at once I became in spirit. And, behold, a throne was set in Heaven, and One sitting on the throne.
Rev 4:3  And the One sitting was in appearance like a jasper stone, and a sardius; and a rainbow was around the throne, in appearance like an emerald.
Rev 4:4  And around the throne I saw twenty four thrones, and on the thrones I saw twenty four elders sitting, having been clothed in white garments. And they had golden crowns on their heads.
Rev 4:5  And out of the throne come forth lightnings and thunders and voices. And seven lamps of fire are burning before the throne, which are the seven Spirits of God;
Rev 4:6  and a glassy sea before the throne, like crystal. And in the midst of the throne and around the throne were four living creatures, full of eyes before and behind.
Rev 4:7  And the first living creature was like a lion; and the second living creature like a calf; and the third living creature having a face like a man; and the fourth living creature like an eagle flying.
Rev 4:8  And the four living creatures each one had six wings around, and within being full of eyes. And they had no rest day and night, saying, “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty,” the One who was, and is, and is coming! Isa. 6:3
Rev 4:9  And whenever the living creatures shall give glory and honor and thanks to the One sitting on the throne, to the One living to the ages of the ages,
Rev 4:10  the twenty four elders fall down before Him sitting on the throne; and they will worship the One living to the ages of the ages, and will throw their crowns before the throne, saying,
Rev 4:11  Lord, You are worthy to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because You created all things, and through Your will they exist and were created.

Gospel/Word in the Heavens

Gen 1:14  And God said, Let luminaries be in the expanse of the heavens, to divide between the day and the night. And let them be for signs and for seasons, and for days and years.

The signs of the heavens are a mark/reminder of the covenant with His people.

Jer 33:25  So says YHWH, If My covenant is not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of the heavens and earth,
Jer 33:26  then I also will reject the seed of Jacob, and My servant David, not to take of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. For I will bring back their captivity and have pity on them.

It is YHWH that created the mazzaroth/constellations

Job 26:13  By his spirit he hath garnished the heavens; his hand hath formed the crooked serpent.
Job 38:31  Can you bind the bands of the Pleiades, or loosen the cords of Orion?
Job 38:32  Can you bring out the constellations in their season; or can you guide the Bear with its sons?
Job 38:33  Knowest thou the ordinances of heaven? canst thou set the dominion thereof in the earth?

He has numbered & named the stars

Isa 40:26  Lift up your eyes on high and look: Who has created these? Who brings out their host by number? By greatness of vigor, and might of power, He calls them all by names; not one is lacking.

Psa 147:4  He appoints the number** of the stars; He calls to them all by names.
**The Hebrew word for number here is mispar from the root saphar which means a record/scroll.  Brown Driver Briggs Hebrew dictionary defines ‘mispar’ as a number or tale.  A tale is an account telling a story.  This is what the number of the stars does.  It tells the story of the Gospel.

Rom 10:17  Then faith is of hearing, and hearing through the Word of God.
Rom 10:18  But I say, Did they not hear? Yes, rather, “into all the earth their voice went out, and to the ends of the world their words.”

The constellations tell the story of the gospel through the names of the stars (Isaiah 40:26; Psalm 147:4).  There are 12 constellations and 36 ‘decan’ constellations which further illustrate the meaning of the main mazzaroth.

VIRGO: Seed of the Woman, Desire of nations, Man of humiliation, becomes exalted Shepherd and Harvester.

LIBRA: The scales demand a price to be paid, Cross to endure, the Victim slain, a Crown purchased.

SCORPIO: A Conflict, Serpent’s coils, Struggle with the Enemy, the Evil Vanquisher.

SAGITTARIUS: The double-natured One triumphs as a Warrior, Pleases the Heavens, Builds fires of punishment, Casts down the Dragon.

CAPRICORNUS: Life comes from death, He’s the Arrow of God, Pierced, Springs up again in abundant life.

AQUARIUS: Life-waters from on High, Drinking the heavenly river, Delivering the Good News, Carrying the Cross over the earth.

PISCES: The Redeemer’s People multiplied, Supported and led by the Lamb, The Bride is exposed on earth, the Bridegroom is exalted.

ARIES: The Lamb is found worthy, the Bride is made ready, Satan is bound, the Breaker triumphs.

TAURUS: The conquering Ruler comes, the sublime Vanquisher, the great Judgment, the ruling Shepherd.

GEMINI: The Marriage of the Lamb, the Enemy is trodden down, the Prince comes in great Glory.

CANCER: The great Bride, the Church and Israel, are brought safely into the kingdom.

LEO: The Lion King is aroused for rending, the Serpent flees, the Bowl of Wrath is upon him, his Carcass is devoured.

Mary as Goddess:

Bride

"Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth! More delightful is your love than wine! Your name spoken is a spreading of perfume -- that is why the maidens love you. Draw me -- We will follow you eagerly! Bring me, O King, to your chambers." --Song of Songs 1:1-4

Spiritual Marriage

The archetype of Spiritual Marriage is present in nearly every religion in the historical record through the present day, and the Bible is no exception. Bride and Bridegroom imagery pervades both the Old and New Testaments. One of the most popular passages in the Old Testament, The Song of Songs (also known as The Song of Solomon) is a joyful celebration of erotic love. This passage is strongly associated with Mary, and is read on her feast days. How did the Blessed Virgin become associated with physical love? How did the Mother of Christ become the Bride of Christ? We will explore these questions here.

The Bride of Christ
In light of the knowledge that ancient goddesses often had a Mother/Lover relationship to their Divine Sons, perhaps the notion of Mary as both Mother & Bride of Christ shouldn't seem strange. But Christianity diverges from the Old Religions most sharply in its denial of sexuality. Isn't it extraordinary, then, that Mary, celebrated for her lack of sexuality, has come to claim the title of Bride, just as the ancient goddesses did? How did this happen?

Modern devotees of Mary Magdalene are convinced that Jesus was married to and fathered a child with the Magdalene, his earthly bride. Evidence suggests that The Song of Songs celebrated Mary Magdalene in early Christianity, not Mother Mary. But after worship of the Magdalene was suppressed, all devotions to her were officially transferred to Mother Mary. This is one theory.

Another theory suggests that the ancient definition of Virgin was retained in cultural consciousness. An ancient virgin was not celibate, only autonomous, and thus many of the ancient love goddesses were also hailed "Virgin."

Added to this is the Spiritual archetype of Marriage, an archetype which reflects a union of separate parts (separate selves) into a whole, a union of Self with The Divine. It is this definition of Spiritual Marriage that the orthodox Church claims in endowing Mary with the title "Bride of Christ." However, Mary was viewed as a real-life bride too, the bride of Joseph, as this painting "Marriage of the Virgin" affirms. Perhaps more than any other factor, it was the need for real-life spiritual models that molded Mary into a Bride. Regardless of the reasons, in 370 Ambrose officially identified Mary as the Bride in The Song of Songs, linking her with Paul's symbol of The Christian Church as Bride (A, B). The title "Bride of Christ" was soon extended to nuns and to each Christian's soul (B). Thus, both Christ and Mary became Spiritual Lover.

Asherah from Sacred Source

Strong archeological evidence suggests that the Israelites incorporated Asherah into Judaism, worshiping her as Wife of Yahweh (B, C, D *). In fact, the Biblical record shows that Solomon encouraged worship of Asherah in the Jerusalem temple: The king defiled the high places . . . which Solomon, king of Israel, had built in honor of Astarte . . . Then the king commanded the high priest . . . to remove from the temple of the Lord all the objects that had been made for Baal, Asherah, and the whole host of heaven . . . . From the temple of the Lord he also removed the sacred pole [a symbol of Asherah] . . . . and tore down the apartments . . . which were in the temple of the Lord and in which the women wove garments for the Asherah. II Kings 23:13; 4-7

Through participating in the ritual, the king agreed to sacrifice his life for his people. Sometimes the king's life was called for, and he was ritually sacrificed. In some of the oldest surviving literature, written on clay tablets in Sumeria, the rite of Heiros Gamos is described (E). The rite includes mourning the dead king, recalling images of the Pieta, shown here. Mary Magdalene is associated with this rite as well (F).

Mary & Love Goddesses
In the age of the Troubadours, Mary was praised as the object of courtly love, the untouchable beauty to be praised above all others (B). Many paintings of this era portrayed Mary as a sensuous woman, like the portrait shown here. Offerings of love to her were common. One legend tells of a man who gave Mary a crown of 50 roses every day (G). Multitude songs of love were written to Mary. St. Anselm addresses her in his Meditations:

"Mary, thou art beautiful to gaze upon, desireable to embrace, delightful to see, for the greatest joy next to God is to look on thee and to take delight in thy praises." (G) Just as nuns wed Christ, so monks and priests wed Mary. Hopeful knights were known to place a ring on Mary's finger. If the statue gripped the ring firmly, the knight considered himself her Bridegroom and entered a religious order. In Greece, men who worshiped Venus performed the same ritual. Venus was also known to firmly grip the rings of the men she loved. One Friar, Alain de la Roche, claimed that many saints and angels witnessed his wedding to Mary who placed on his finger a ring made of her woven hair (a common love custom at that time.) (H)

In addition, Mary shares titles with Love Goddesses. Aphrodite and Mary are both hailed "Star of the Sea." Mary and Venus share the title "Morning Star." Inanna (the primary Goddess of the Sacred Marriage) and Mary are both "Queen of Heaven."

Freelance Writing by Kelly Maynard (Academic Writing Excerpts) Freelance por Kelly Maynard (Extractos escritura académica)

Ancient Sumeria is the world's first known literate culture. La antigua Sumeria es el mundo de la cultura primero sabido leer y escribir. Over five thousand years ago, scribes pressed cuneiform characters onto clay tablets and created literature. Más de cinco mil años atrás, los escribas presionado caracteres cuneiformes en tablillas de arcilla y creó la literatura. Over 250,000 of these tablets have been discovered so far (Boren 31-32). Más de 250.000 de estas pastillas se han descubierto hasta el momento (Boren 31-32). Although more than ninety percent contain governmental or economic material, there is also a substantial cache of myths, hymns, and poetry (Kramer, The Sumerians 165). Aunque más del noventa por ciento contienen material gubernamentales o económicos, también hay un caché considerable de mitos, himnos, y la poesía (Kramer, Los sumerios 165). Through this literature, one may gain an understanding of Sumerian religion and its vast pantheon, including the goddess Inanna. A través de esta literatura, se puede obtener una comprensión de la religión sumeria, y su vasto panteón, como la diosa Inanna. "Inanna played a greater role in [Sumerian] myth, epic, and hymn than any other deity" (Kramer, From the Poetry of Sumer 71). "Inanna jugado un papel más importante en [Sumeria] mito épico, y el himno que cualquier otra deidad" (Kramer, de la poesía de Sumer 71). Who was this exalted goddess? ¿Quién fue esta diosa exaltado? To gain an understanding of Inanna, and her importance, attributes, and role in religious literature, one must look first to the Sumerians themselves. Para tener una idea de Inanna, y su importancia, los atributos, y su papel en la literatura religiosa, uno debe mirar primero a los propios sumerios. Where, when, and how they lived and worshipped will provide the necessary background; this, combined with a study of Inanna's portrayal in Sumerian literature, will begin to answer the question "Who was Inanna?" ¿Dónde, cuándo y cómo vivían, y adoraron a proporcionar los antecedentes necesarios, lo que, combinado con un estudio de la representación de Inanna en la literatura sumeria, comenzará a responder a la pregunta "¿Quién era Inanna?" Inanna is often viewed, like her Akkadian counterpart Ishtar, as simply the goddess of love, but her domain was in actuality much vaster than that. Inanna se ve a menudo, al igual que su homólogo acadia Ishtar, simplemente como la diosa del amor, pero su dominio fue en realidad más vasta mucho más que eso. She did indeed represent love, and its corresponding areas, including sexuality, fertility, creativity, and marriage (particularly divine, or kingly, marriage). Ella, efectivamente, representan el amor, y sus correspondientes áreas, como la sexualidad, la fertilidad, la creatividad, y el matrimonio (sobre todo lo divino o real del matrimonio,). She was, too, the goddess of war and of the storm; connected, through her sister Ereshkigal, with the underworld; one of Sumeria's main deities, and the favorite of both gods and people alike. Fue, también, la diosa de la guerra y de la tormenta, conectado, a través de su hermana Ereshkigal, con el bajo mundo, una de las principales deidades Sumeria, y la favorita de los dioses y las personas por igual. Rivkah Harris believes that Inanna "was a paradox....she represented both order and disorder, structure and anti-structure....she confounded and confused normative categories" (263). Rivkah Harris cree que Inanna "era una paradoja .... ella representaba el orden y el desorden, la estructura y la lucha contra la estructura .... ella confundió y confunde categorías normativas" (263).

Kramer describes Inanna as the "bright, shining...brave, crafty, ambitious, aggressive, desirable, loving, hating `Queen of Heaven'" ("Poets and Psalmists" 16), thereby emphasizing the many and differing aspects of her character. Kramer describe Inanna como "brillante, brillante ... valiente, astuto, ambicioso, agresivo, deseable, amar, odiar 'Reina del Cielo" ("Los poetas y los salmistas" 16), subrayando con ello los múltiples aspectos y diferentes de su personaje . Baring and Cashford give headings successively referring to Inanna as "the Great Mother," "Hierodule," "Queen of Heaven," "Goddess of the Storm" and "of War"; involved with "The Laws," "Her Son-Lover," "The Sacred Marriage," "The Descent" to the underworld, and "The Sacrifice of the Son-Lover" (191-219). Baring y Cashford proporcionar encabezamientos de forma sucesiva se refiere a Inanna como "la Gran Madre", "hieródula", "Reina de los Cielos", "Diosa de la Tormenta" y "de la guerra", involucrado en "las leyes", "su hijo-amante "," El Matrimonio Sagrado "," The Descent "a los infiernos, y" El sacrificio del Hijo-Amante "(191-219). Stone goes so far as to say that "Inanna's increasingly popularized image assimilated many of the aspects and rituals known under other Goddess-names in various towns and communities" (Ancient Mirrors of Womanhood 241), thus giving a possible explanation for the breadth of the goddess' character and functions. Piedra va tan lejos como para decir que "Inanna es cada vez más popularizado la imagen asimilado muchos de los aspectos y los rituales conocidos bajo otros Diosa nombres en diferentes ciudades y comunidades" (antiguos espejos de la Feminidad 241), dando así una posible explicación de la amplitud de la carácter de diosa y funciones. These aspects will be examined as they arise in the Sumerian literature to be discussed; however, an overview of Inanna's worship will be considered first. Estos aspectos serán examinados a medida que surgen en la literatura sumeria para ser discutido, sin embargo, una visión general de la adoración de Inanna se tendrán en cuenta en primer lugar.

As mentioned earlier, Inanna functioned as patron deity to the city of Uruk, "identified with the biblical Erech,...on the Euphrates River," where structures date back to the fourth millenium BCE Inanna's temple, the Eanna, "House of Heaven," "is the oldest preserved temple at Uruk" (Gadon 117). Como se mencionó antes, Inanna funcionó como la deidad patrona de la ciudad de Uruk ", identificado con el bíblico Erech, ... sobre el río Eufrates", donde las estructuras se remontan al templo del cuarto milenio aC de Inanna, la Eanna "Casa del Cielo , "" es el templo más antiguo conservado en Uruk "(Gadon 117). Uruk is, as well, the first known site both of writing and of the potter's wheel (Ancient Mirrors of Womanhood 245), giving it a long and prestigious history. Uruk es, así, el primer sitio conocido tanto de la escritura y de la rueda del alfarero (antiguos espejos de la Feminidad 245), lo que supone una larga y prestigiosa historia. Inanna was worshipped throughout Sumer, and even acted as the patron deity of another city, Kish (The Sumerians 55), but Uruk remained the center of her worship. Inanna era adorado en todo Sumer, e incluso actuó como la deidad patrona de otra ciudad, Kish (Los sumerios 55), pero Uruk continuó siendo el centro de su culto.

The exact details of the nature of Inanna's worship at Uruk remain blurred at best. Los detalles exactos de la naturaleza de la adoración de Inanna de Uruk permanecer borrosa en el mejor. Harris notes that "[t]o date, no theologicohistorical study of [Inanna's] festivals has been made" (273). Harris señala que "[l] o la fecha, ningún estudio theologicohistorical de los festivales [Inanna] se ha hecho" (273). One may, however, present a tentative sketch of worship at Eanna. Uno puede, sin embargo, presentan un esquema tentativo de la adoración en Eanna. Stone believes that "offerings of wheat and fruit, of fish and animals," were placed at the feet of a high priestess or representative of Inanna in the temple. Stone cree que "la oferta de trigo y frutas, de pescado y animales", se colocaron a los pies de una sacerdotisa o representante de Inanna en el templo. Eanna was also the site of the Sacred Marriage ritual on the New Year (Ancient Mirrors of Womanhood 244). Eanna era también el sitio del ritual del matrimonio sagrado en el Año Nuevo (antiguos espejos de la Feminidad 244). It is also possible that prophesizing, perhaps with snakes, took place at the temple (When God Was A Woman 210). También es posible que profetiza, tal vez con las serpientes, se llevó a cabo en el Templo (Al Dios era una mujer 210).

Kramer presents evidence that "in the temple of every major city daily sacrifices were offered...foods, libations..., and the burning of incense" (The Sumerians 140). Kramer presenta evidencia de que "en el templo de todas las ciudades importantes sacrificios diarios se ofrecieron ... alimentos, libaciones ..., y la quema de incienso" (Los sumerios 140). His listing of temple workers (including singers, poets, musicians) hints intriguingly at boisterous temple celebrations (142), a theme enlarged upon by Harris, who characterizes the celebrations as "carnivalesque," "institutionalized license." Su lista de los trabajadores del templo (incluyendo cantantes, poetas, músicos) sugiere curiosamente en las celebraciones del templo bullicioso (142), un tema ampliado por Harris, que caracteriza a las celebraciones de "carnavalesco", "licencia institucional". This carnival atmosphere included "[p]ornographic language" and "[r]itual obscenity," masking, songs, dancing[6], and possible participation by eunuchs, transvestites, and the ancient world's ubiquitous hierodules, or temple prostitutes (273-77). Esta atmósfera de carnaval incluye "[p] idioma ornographic" y "[r] la obscenidad itual," enmascaramiento, canciones, baile [6] la participación y posible gracias a los eunucos, travestis y hieródulas ubicua del mundo antiguo, o prostitutas del templo (273 - 77).

Hierodules were a part of almost every known goddess cult in ancient times.[7] According to Stone, "sex was Her [the goddess'] gift to humanity. It was sacred and holy." Hieródulas eran parte de casi todos culto a la diosa conocida en la antigüedad. [7] Según Stone, "era el sexo Su regalo de [la diosa] a la humanidad. Es sagrado y santo." Even women who were not hierodules sometimes participated in ritual sex at local temples (When God Was A Woman 154-55). Incluso las mujeres que no eran hieródulas veces participó en el sexo ritual en los templos locales (Cuando Dios era una mujer 154-55). Stone calls the women who lived at the temples nu-gig, which translates as "pure or spotless" (217). Stone llama a las mujeres que vivían en los templos nu-concierto, que se traduce como "puro o sin mancha" (217). Elsewhere Stone explains this apparent contradiction by labelling the women's services as "love sanctified" (Ancient Mirrors of Womanhood 245). En otras partes de piedra, explica esta aparente contradicción, mediante el etiquetado de servicios de las mujeres como "el amor santificados" (antiguos espejos de la Feminidad 245). It was a hierodule who enacted the role of Inanna during the Sacred Marriage at New Year (The Sumerians 141). Fue un hieródula que promulgó el papel de Inanna en el Matrimonio Sagrado en el Año Nuevo (Los sumerios 141). The hierodules were, after all, emulating Inanna in every possible respect. El hieródulas, después de todo, emulando Inanna en todos los aspectos posibles. Inanna was, says Harris, "the harlot of Heaven" (271). Inanna era, dice Harris, "la ramera del Cielo" (271).

As a matter of course, all of the major deities interacted with one another, both positively and negatively, and Inanna was no exception. Como cuestión de rutina, todas las divinidades más importantes interactuaban entre sí, tanto positiva como negativa, e Inanna no fue la excepción. For example, in "Inanna and the Huluppu-Tree," "The Courtship of Inanna and Dumuzi," and "The Descent of Inanna," a close but ambivalent relationship can be seen between Inanna and her brother Utu, the sun god (Wolkstein and Kramer 166). Por ejemplo, en "Inanna y el árbol de Huluppu", "El Cortejo de Inanna y Dumuzi", y "El descenso de Inanna," puede existir una estrecha relación ambivalente, pero visto entre Inanna y su hermano Utu, el dios del sol (Wolkstein Kramer y 166). Kramer reports in From the Poetry of Sumer that Inanna also "had her troubles with...Enlil, the supreme deity of the Sumerian pantheon," incurring his wrath at least once, although for reasons unknown (91). Kramer en los informes de la poesía de Sumer que Inanna también "tenía sus problemas con ... Enlil, el dios supremo del panteón sumerio," incurrir en su ira por lo menos una vez, aunque por razones desconocidas (91).

Inanna did, however, have a special relationship with the water god, Enki; Kramer describes her as "a high favorite" of his (From the Poetry of Sumer 91-92). Inanna, sin embargo, tienen una relación especial con el dios de las aguas, Enki, Kramer le describe como "una de las favoritas de alta" de su (de la poesía de Sumer 91-92). That Inanna and Enki had such a bond is somewhat unusual, given Inanna's trickery on at least one occasion. Que Inanna y Enki había dicho bono es algo inusual, teniendo en cuenta el engaño de Inanna por lo menos en una ocasión. The major myth concerning both of them, called "The Transfer of the Arts of Civilization from Eridu to Erech" or "Inanna and the God of Wisdom," to be examined in detail later, demonstrates Inanna's deviousness. El gran mito sobre dos de ellos, llamado "La transferencia de las artes de la civilización de Eridu a Uruk" o "Inanna y el Dios de la Sabiduría", que se examinarán en detalle más adelante, demuestra astucia de Inanna. Nonetheless, "Enki, to judge from several [other] myths, remained ever friendly and gracious to the goddess" (From the Poetry of Sumer 75). Sin embargo, "Enki, a juzgar por algunos [otros] los mitos, se mantuvo siempre amables y atentos a la diosa" (de la poesía de Sumer 75).

Inanna is most often thought of as the goddess of love[8], in spite of her many other associations, but even this single association contains within itself multiple aspects. Inanna es a menudo considerada como la diosa del amor [8], a pesar de sus muchas otras asociaciones, pero incluso esta asociación solo contiene dentro de sí múltiples aspectos. Inanna is the Queen of Heaven and Earth. Inanna es la Reina del Cielo y la Tierra. She is the goddess of the morning and the evening star (Venus). Ella es la diosa de la mañana y la estrella vespertina (Venus). She is the goddess of sexual love and fertility as well as of marriage, particularly royal marriage. Ella es la diosa del amor sexual y la fertilidad, así como del matrimonio, el matrimonio real en particular. Simultaneously, Inanna is called "virgin," a word originally meaning unmarried, rather than physically chaste.[9] As Baring and Cashford put it, virginity "had nothing to do with sexual `purity'....The goddess is virgin because she carries within herself her own fertilizing power" (192). Al mismo tiempo, Inanna se llama "virgen", una palabra que originalmente significaba solteros, en lugar de casta físicamente. [9] Como Baring y Cashford decirlo, la virginidad "no tiene nada que ver con la pureza sexual`'.... La diosa es virgen porque ella lleva en sí su propio poder fertilizar "(192).

Inanna is a moon goddess because she is daughter of a moon god and a moon goddess, but she is also "incarnated in the morning and evening star and in the star Sirius." Inanna es una diosa de la luna porque ella es hija de un dios de la luna y una diosa de la luna, pero ella también está "encarnado en la estrella de la mañana y por la tarde y en la estrella Sirio." Thus is Inanna the Queen of Heaven. Así es Inanna la Reina del Cielo. These lunar and stellar asssociations connect her with the waxing and waning of life, and therefore fertility (Baring and Cashford 191). Estos asssociations lunar y estelar de su conexión con la creciente y menguante de la vida, y por lo tanto la fertilidad (Baring y Cashford 191).

Inanna's earthiness and sexuality (and hence her title Queen of Earth) are amply demonstrated in Sumerian literature. Terrenal de Inanna y la sexualidad (y de ahí su título de Reina de la Tierra) son ampliamente demostrado en la literatura sumeria. There are the tales of her relationship with her husband Dumuzi (cf. Ancient Mirrors of Womanhood 244; Baring and Cashford 207-15; From the Poetry of Sumer 77-82, 93-96; Furlong 16, 19-20; Gadon 127-28; Hooke 34-35; Jacobsen 180-82; The Sumerians 250-53). No son los cuentos de su relación con su esposo Dumuzi (cf. espejos antiguos de la Feminidad 244; Baring y Cashford 207-15, de la poesía de Sumer 77-82, 93-96; Furlong 16, 19-20; Gadon 127 - 28, 34-35 Hooke, Jacobsen 180-82, 250-53 Los sumerios). In the story "Inanna and Shukalletuda," a mortal gardener takes sexual advantage of Inanna while she is sleeping (From the Poetry of Sumer 77; cf. Kirk 103-05, The Sumerians 162-63).

Esto se demuestra por un mito en el que "la diosa vengativa ... destruye monte Ebih, una región al norte de Sumer que había dejado de hacer su homenaje." As well, Inanna's "vindictive aspect" is revealed in "Inanna and Shukalletuda," and may be seen in her relationship with Dumuzi (From the Poetry of Sumer 75-77, 83). Además, "aspecto vengativo" Inanna se revela en "Inanna y Shukalletuda", y puede ser visto en su relación con Dumuzi (de la poesía de Sumer 75-77, 83).

The heliacal rising of Sirius is the central element in all this that 'anchors' the 'Lucifer Time Code'.

It is the womb of Isis-Mary-Venus that facilitates the continuation of the Osirian seed. This is the key element of the story of the Holy Grail - or the 'Blood Royal'. What is curious here is that the combination of Mars and the notion of seeds invokes 'Panspermia', the theory that life may be transferred from one planet to another through, for example, meteorites. Since NASA claimed they found evidence of life in a Martian meteorite in 1996 (on August 6/7, of course), scientists have come to take seriously the idea that life on Earth was originally 'seeded' by rocks from outer space, particularly Mars.
