You are giving major Inanna vibes! You are an absolute goddess of fecundity and war. Never let anyone tell you you don’t also represent justice or political power either because you are absolutely giving that energy right now. You can rip the throats out of your enemies with the strength of a lion and all of your priestesses are destined to absolutely slay. Now go out there and find your own Dumuzid! You deserve it.

You are absolutely giving Ishtar. The name of the game for you is fertility and battle and no one can take that crown from you. You know deep down that you also represent political power and sometimes even justice but you don’t feel the need to brag about it. You are living in Leo energy and love being worshipped by the Akkadians. Nothing is sexier than the thought of your priestesses trampling an army, crushing their skulls with their heels as they lock eyes with their next victim. That is your truth and you live in it without shame. Good for you.
