Join Me for the Kin Inanna Festival!

Kin Inanna was an ancient festival celebrated to honor Inanna in the city of Nippur, dating to the third dynasty of Ur. I’ve decided to do a series of public rituals for this festival as part of my ordination project. What better way to begin my pagan ministry work than with helping to revive an ancient celebration of Inanna! I hope this will be interesting to the Mesopotamian polytheist community and even people on other pagan paths.

I’m planning out a series of public (online) rituals to celebrate Kin Inanna. I’m thinking Thursday, September 19th for the first, either the 21st or 22nd for the second, and the 24th for the third. It will probably be around 7 or 7:30 pm on Facebook Live. I have to rehearse and put the finishing touches on my rituals to see how long I’ll need for set up and for the actual rituals. I’ll put up a Facebook event when I get it all sorted out in the next couple of days. I believe Live videos can be re-watched later, so if you wanted to participate, but can’t make it, you can still participate asynchronously (unless I mess up too bad and decide to remove it!)

Enki and Ninmah: The Place of Neurodivergence and Other “Disabilities” in Society

I discuss the myth of Enki and Ninmah, where Enki finds a place in society for Ninmah’s “deformed” creations and share my interpretation of how this myth applies to the value of people who are considered disable based on my personal experiences.

My Next Magickal Adventure: Pagan Clergy Training

I’m nearing the end of my Order of the Rod and Ring initiation journey and I’ve been thinking a lot about where I want to go next in my spiritual path. While this initiation will make me able to perform priestly duties with regard to serving the gods and maintaining their temple, I still feel like to actually take on a title of clergy or priestess, I need to be able to actually serve the pagan community. So I have decided to take a pagan clergy training class, which starts next week! It is through an organization called Greenwild Mystical Academy. If anyone reading this is interested in joining me, you can find more information here: Accepting the Call: Pagan Clergy Training. This is a general course for anyone following a pagan spiritual path who is interested in training to take on a clergy role.

I don’t know completely where this will take me yet, but I’m trusting in the Gods that this is the path that They want me to pursue right now.
