7. From the Great Above to the Great Below - The Descent of Inanna

Welcome, dear listener, to the seventh gate, the seventh episode, and a mythic journey into the sacred descent of Inanna—Queen of Heaven and Earth. In this storytelling episode of the Embodied Mother Podcast, Laura shares the ancient Sumerian myth of Inanna’s descent through the seven gates of the underworld, where she meets her shadow self, her sister Ereshkigal.This is a story that has moved through Laura in many shapes and seasons—through birth, through grief, most recently through my midwifery path. Each time it arrives, it brings deeper resonance. Inanna’s descent is not just myth—it is every woman’s descent into her body, her blood, her truth.Laura reads a poem from her own descent, written in devotion to surrender and the deep waters of the feminine void. Let it move through you. Let it stir the wisdom that lives beneath the surface.✨ Special spotlight & deepest praise to Adrianna Zaccardi (@adriannazaccardi / @themotherservice), whose presence and work continues to echo through my journey in womanhood and motherhood, the embodied rites of passage, and the sacred descent. You can explore Adrianna’s beautiful offerings here:🌀  Book 1:1 sessions🌀  Instagram – @themotherservice🌀  Instagram – @adriannazaccardi🌀 Substack – adriannazaccardi.substack.comIf this story speaks to you—if it stirs, remembers, or reflects something within—you are so welcome to share it.
