 In a nutshell, this is what the Great Story is about:Inanna's Descent is an epic poem about a Warrior Queen, Priestess of Seven Temples and mother of two sons, who chooses to undertake a soulful, dangerous Journey so that she can gain the greatest power of all, to know her Self.

And that is why a story that was written in clay tablets four thousand years ago still speaks to us! Ancient stories are rich in archetypal symbolism. Hour by hour, through a variety of introspective processes, you will unravel the collective and personal meaning of Inanna's Descent. Storyteller and Facilitator:
