Repost @maria_hyldemors_have 🔥🔥🔥 Inanna’s Descent to the Underworld If you do not open the gate for me to come in, I shall smash the door and shatter the bolt, I shall smash the doorpost and overturn the doors, I shall raise up the dead and they shall eat the living: And the dead shall outnumber the living! The strong and beautiful story of Inanna/Ishtar and her descent to the underworld lingers with me these days. Stripped naked of all her power she meets and faces her fate, hanging dead like a corpse for three days and three nights and so the story goes… 🙏🏻🔥 • • Once again a magnificent shot by @thursarn Handpoked magic rune raven with a verse from Sigrdrifamal - the only known “real” prayer from the Norse mythology - by the skilled Danish tattoo artist @jespermannklan Left shoulder and right underarm by @colindaletattoo / @skinandbone.dk #goddessofloveandwar #inanna #ishtar #transformation #descent #personaljourney #nordictattoo #magicrunes #raventattoo #handpoked #freehand #machinefreetattoo #chesttattoo #norsepagan #paganwomen #vikingwomen #völva #powerfulwomen #vikingtattoo #healingrunes #webofwyrd #sigrdrifamal #mjollnirtor (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNqHuB0BEOr/?igshid=9oq726w6oe7z
