February 02, 2025 S8E9 - Decolonizing Mythology Through the Myths of Inanna and Tiamat
Send us Fan Mail
And now for something completely different: Storytime! But first, we're getting cerebral.
In this episode of the Magick Kitchen Podcast, Elyse and Leandra share their perspectives on decolonizing mythology. We discuss the truth about working with deities, and the reality of personal gnosis. We also discuss the importance of critical contexts for the classical portrayals of gods, the complexity of translation, and end the episode with some bardic storytelling of our favorite Sumerian myths about Inanna, and Tiamat.
