“I call on your many names!
Inanna!
Asherah!
Ishtar!
Astarte!
Isis!
Aphrodite!
Great lady of the stars, sea and soil!!
From the Kopet Mountains to the Caspian Sea,
From my heart to the vault of the skies,
I am devoted to you in all languages and in all hearts,
And in all your names.
in all the rain soaked earth and in all the stars.
Asherah I cherish you,
My unbridled Queen of queens,
I bow to you,
I am bound to you,
Oh Sacred heart,
Great goddess of love and hate,
Of life and death, of passion and peace,
Of all the holy contradictions,
maiden of the ascension and descension,
of the looping serpent’s Ouroboros,
Guide me through my darkness,
So I may see the light.
So that I may rise from the fall,
With the wings of the dawn,
of your everlasting Arammu
Of your all-embracing Ahavah!
Excerpt from “Asherah: High Queen of Queens” - Featured in Asherah: Roots of the Mother Tree.”

“And so my advice to you is this:
Explore the wilderness in your heart.
Love vastly.
Daydream constantly.
Make love genuinely.
Dance regularly.
Breathe deeply.
Be nonsensical.
Unravel your shining soul.
And enjoy every moment.”
