ISHTAR - Goddess of Love & War -Rituals for Desire, Protection, Prophecy & Victory
Discover Ishtar where love, war, sovereignty, and ritual become one power.
ISHTAR restores the Queen of Heaven and Earth to the full complexity she possessed across ancient Mesopotamia. From Uruk, Babylon, Nineveh, and Arbela to the brilliant movements of Venus, Victor Althar explores a goddess of desire and battle, attraction and authority, protection and prophecy.
Drawing on Mesopotamian history, mythology, celestial symbolism, and surviving traditions surrounding Ishtar, the book follows her many manifestations before bringing their principles into a structured modern practice. The lion, the eight-pointed star, Morning and Evening Venus, royal power, sacred boundaries, offerings, and covenant acquire meaning as parts of a single path rather than isolated occult devices.
The rituals and practices lead the reader through essential questions of personal sovereignty: understanding desire, strengthening presence, establishing boundaries, confronting necessary conflicts, defining victory, and accepting the responsibilities that accompany authority.
For readers drawn to ancient Mesopotamian religion, goddess spirituality, ritual practice, and the mysteries of Venus, this is a journey from the clay records of vanished kingdoms to a living discipline of desire, protection, prophecy, victory, and self-government.
