On episode 92 of the Magick & Alchemy Podcast, hosts Kate Belew and Kristin Lisenby discuss goddesses of sex and war. In this conversation, they share stories of Inanna, Queen of Heaven, and her descent to and from the Underworld. They discuss Inanna’s possible ties to Astarte, Lilith, Venus, and Aphrodite, and the removal of her sacred Huluppu tree. They also talk about the mythology of the winged Isis, and ask each other why sex and death are inextricably linked in these Goddess stories.
