My Second Descent with Inanna
My first real experience with Inanna and her mythological descent was when my marriage ended.
This unravelling brought me to my knees in every way possible.
It was a profoundly challenging time, truly a dark night of the soul experience.
Yet I gained so much from that descent that I am acutely aware I would not be the woman I am today without it, making me beyond grateful.
I've been working with Inanna ever since - including taking her name in acknowledgement of how powerful a presence she continues to be in my life.
In the years that followed I've made many descents into the Underworld (as I've been shared many times.
What I've realised lately, is that my second real humbling Inanna experience has been this past MONTH.
It was / and continues to be another truly humbling, ego shattering death.
Where everything got stripped bare..
To the point that I didn't know who I would be, how I would endure, and where life was taking me next.
The great thing about a Descent of this nature, is it is always followed by re-emergence
And I am feeling myself begin to slowly emerge, but only a bit at a time.
I know now that this process cannot be forced or rushed, it simply needs to be trusted.
In our world, most of us have been taught to relish the LIGHT as if it was the only thing that matters.
And sure, without the sun we would all cease to exist..
But I'm here to remind you that the DARKness also has immense value, if we are willing to heed its potent medicine.
Inanna is one of three Mythological Dark Goddesses that we will be working with inside Wisdom from the Dark. If you are unfamiliar with her you can listen to me sharing her STORY HERE.
If you are a woman who wants to strengthen your acceptance, allowance, trust and capacity to journey down below and return even more integrated.. this is an invitation for you.
Wisdom from the Dark
We begin on 16th July
For 8 weeks of embodied explorations over Zoom
It would be my pleasure to walk beside you, as we lean into the gifts the darkness holds for us.

Yours in humble devotion,
