FORTNIGHT OVERVIEW

Tammuz, Ishtar, Inanna, Magi
Late Summer - Fortnight 11 (Zephyr+Zephyr)

Festival/Aug 22: Summer and Babylon and Roman cultures and calendars. Struggling against chaos (Tiamat). Bringing order. Buried in the tomb of flesh and materiality. The stinking bag of pus.

Sumerian Inanna

The Sumerian Inanna cult, flourishing c. 3000–2334 BCE in Uruk, centered on Inanna’s descent to the underworld, mourning Tammuz, as detailed in cuneiform texts like Inanna’s Descent. Manichaean statues and meditations on Ahura Mazda aligned inner order with cosmic struggle against chaos (Tiamat). Its unique idea of descent into materiality as a path to renewal shaped Mesopotamian spirituality.

Babylonian Ishtar

The Babylonian Ishtar cult, peaking under the First Babylonian Dynasty (c. 1830–1531 BCE), linked Ishtar to Marduk’s victory over Tiamat, influencing the Enuma Elish and calendar systems. Manichaean alms (einkorn, emmer) symbolized sowing light into matter, fostering order. Its distinctive belief in a primal pair birthing creation elevated Ishtar as a cosmic mother.

Roman Calendar Magi

The Roman Calendar Magi, emerging c. 1st century BCE–4th century CE, adapted Babylonian astrology into Roman timekeeping, with Magi as priestastrologers. Parsee sacramental feasts reflected paradise with five trees, integrating Babylonian and Persian cosmologies. Their unique synthesis of celestial order with earthly ritual bridged cultures.
