Statue of Liberty & Eostre/Ostara, Goddess of Spring

Inanna, as a rule, represents the power of Venus, the power of Love. On this representation, she represents the external world, the observable beauty, the beauty of the form, external beauty and measure. There is no Goddess that is as beautiful as she is. Yet, this connotation hides many hidden meanings except of the meanings of pure external beauty.

In this form of the power of beauty, she is represented by Aphrodite. Falsely, and due to the fall of consciousness of mankind, Astarte has been credited mostly as a Goddess of external sexual beauty. Sexual attraction is very important, is related to the procreative drive, and is necessary for human existence. Going higher, Venus also rules love in it’s entirety, from the lower aspects to the higher aspects.

In the Symposium of Plato, Aphrodite in this aspect is divided in two levels: The "Uranian Aphrodite" or Heavenly Aphrodite, and the "Pandemos Aphrodite" or "Earthly" and "People's" Aphrodite. Each represent a different face of the Goddess, one focused on carnal procreation, while the other represents the higher powers of the notion of love.

Beauty, while in it’s external form is arguably what makes life worth living as in art and culture, is also a manifestation of other deeper notions such as harmony. For Plato and other Ancient Philosophers, the manifestation of beauty is also the manifestation of sublime ideals such as balance, harmony, equilibrium and perfection. Plato and Socrates have expanded upon the numerous meanings of the word "Beautiful" and the given philosophical notions of the term, which deal with the world of ideas [astral realm] and deal with the confounding of the universe. [8]

The all encompassing importance of the notion of love and all it’s manifestations, falls under her power associated with the Planet Venus. As explained in the beginning of this page, Aphrodite and the rule of the feeling of Love is showing a hidden spiritual procedure, that of the union of the Soul through Spiritual Alchemy.

Plato writes on Phaedro about the distinction of the two types of love: Carnal love [called Eros from which the word “erotic” today was made] and Spiritual love [union of the soul]. These types of love are fundamental in survival and human procreation, yet at the same time the same spiritual force leads to enlightenment. [9]

In Spiritual Mythology, Astarte has many lovers, including makers of the first human civilizations like Dumuzid, or the famous myth of Aphrodite and Adonis. These are only to name a few. Behind these mythologies, there rests a very important parable, that explains that the power of the Goddess acts directly to help humanity and mere mortals. The idyllic love built between these two is not focused on the erotic aspect, but on the aspect of bonding the soul. Inanna’s descent into the underworld to save the mythical hero/god Dumuzid, is synonymous with the spiritual allegory of Demeter and the descent of Persephone on the underworld. [10] The story of Adonis and Aphrodite, regardless, has went down in history as one of the most beautiful love stories to ever have existed. Likewise, for the Germanic People, Astarte represents everything stated in this page under her name as Freya, including love and procreation. Encyclopedia Britannica explains further: “Like the Egyptian goddess Isis and the Greek Aphrodite, Freyja traveled through the world seeking a lost husband and weeping tears of gold.” [11] However, that brings us automatically into the next step in the analysis of the Goddess of Goddesses.

The “Artemis” or Virgin Aspect – Justice And Spiritual Power

As Artemis, Astarte's symbol of power is the Lunar Disk, but also her powerful prowess, being the Twin Sister of Apollo [Azazel and Astarte are twins]. Artemis lives in the forest, in the wilderness, and rules over the Moon and it’s Cycles. In that respect, her rule of the Moon is again representative of the feminine powers of the Moon. Like Azazel, she is called “Bright” [Phoebia], a connotation to her spiritual ranking and strength. Another common power of Artemis, is that Artemis can exact extraordinary punishment for violation of spiritual edicts of the Gods, like Apollo does. When Astarte wants to punish, one word describes what these punishments entail: “Terrifying”. [12] The Ancient Spartans also worshiped Venus in a warrior aspect, and the same is the case with the Babylonians and Assyrians with Inanna, for Astarte is a Warrior Goddess and a Fertility Goddess to them. The Ancient Spartan war machine, known by all people of the world and even admired worldwide today, had Aphrodite as their main city state Goddess. Under this, she was called "Aphrodite Areia" [Arya]. Sparta was renown for treating women as the pupil and the eye of the Spartan world. At the same time, Spartan women reciprocated to this behavior by being deserving of the high praise and creating new life. [13]

The nature of chastity or virginity in the Artemis symbol, is because the Moon or the inner part of the soul, does remain virgin and unadulterated. It is the part of the soul we carry through each lifetime, which defines who we are. Adulterated and virgin not only concerns sexual relationships, but how one must keep their soul and spirit pure from external evil and negative influences.

In that regard, the ability to fight back against injustice and negativity becomes rather necessary. Artemis is a Goddess of supernal wisdom and destructive prowess, and Artemis represents the direct aspects of warfare that deal with direct destruction, no different than an aspect of Aphrodite as explained above.

Artemis, except of a huntress, is also the protector of nature, wildlife, and was the most venerated Goddess in Ancient Greek for the rural people. Like Azazel/Apollo, she protects the children and the young and innocent, while she smites with death and disease those who destroy what is sacred. She was called “Mistress of all the Animals” as a form of a honorary title. [14]

It must be kept in mind, that animals and animal life is sacred in Spiritual Satanism, and while Artemis is symbolic of killing livestock for consumption or for hunting, she also establishes the balance with the living environment of life, something that humanity must have a goal to achieve. Artemis is the protector of the wildlife.

Isis or Demeter – The Mother Of The Earth, Gods And World Aspect

Demeter is the Goddess of the Harvest, which deals with the fertility and the creation of mother Earth. The production of food, the laws of life and death, but also the deep occult mysteries of the Female Priestesses of Ancient Greece and the Eleusenian Mysteries, were created under the teachings of Astarte. These were some of the most secret mysteries in the Ancient World, where initiates learned siddhis and received enlightenment. [15] In her aspect as Demeter, Astarte is the most apocryphal and secretive of her aspects. In the depiction of the left, we have two hidden occult meanings on this painting. One word writes "ΕΝΙΑΥΤΟΣ", which means "Inner Self" or the "True Self". On the other word, we have "ΕΛΕΥΣΙΣ" which means "The Coming" or "To Become". Demeter here shows the disciple the secrets to bring the birth of the higher self, or the "Second Birth". The same history is repeated in her identity as Danu, in Irish folklore and mythology. As Danu, she precedes over the Tuatha De Danann. The Tuatha De Danann are an Irish folklore history about the Gods and the people that existed in Ireland before the present day Irish came to live there, who exhibited extreme powers of the mind and soul, but were most knowledgeable in the spiritual arts of the Gods. Dana [Astarte] is shown here also as their mother. [16]

The depth of her mysteries is extensive, and the importance of these mysteries was the “Descent into the Underworld”, which the Goddess Demeter’s most famous allegory is related to. The underworld, is symbolic of the astral plane and realms of the dead, but also of the re-connection of the soul with one’s spiritual powers.

In this myth, Demeter’s daughter, Persephone, descends into the underworld to finally get saved and brought to her mother again. The Myth of the “Descent”, also famous in Sumerian and Ugaritic history of Astarte. This story was called “Astarte’s Descent Into the Underworld”, and is the restoration of the Fallen Serpent Power [Fertility Power] and re-uniting this power with the Divine Mother or Demeter [the head of the spiritual practitioner].

When this spiritual process is completed, “Spring”, the Greek word of this being “Aneksis” which means “Opening” does occur, and the person finally opens up their spiritual faculties which allow the person to go back and forth into the “Realm of the Dead” or the Astral Plane and the physical world. The spring and blossoming of the soul happens, as the Chakras are also commonly in all Pagan Traditions depicted as flowers, and then one finally blossoms and returns to the “Divine Mother” or Demeter.

Unconsciously, from the name Demeter, we today in English speak of “The Mother” which is close to the word De-mater in it’s pronunciation. In modern German, “The Mother” is still called “Die Mutter” which is another alteration of the latter aspect of the word Demeter. Her association with the Earth, the Harvest, the family and household, but also the earth and the soil in itself, made her over time to be entitled as “Mother Earth”. Like Isis, she is a motherly figure that supplies human beings with whatever they require for life.

In her Egyptian alias as Isis, Isis is portrayed as being the Mother of “Horus the Savior”, from which “Holy Mary the Mother Of Jesus the savior” was stolen from. That constitutes one of the greatest blasphemies and corruptions against the Goddess. [17]

Astarte’s Divine Symbols: The Power of Astarte’s Sigil

The star as an occult symbol is clearly illustrated in Astarte’s Sigil. This Symbol is also called the “Pythagorean Perfection Symbol”, also frequently associated with Satan Himself, represents the unity of the 5 elements in the human being. The elements of water, fire, air and earth represent the body and the lower functions, while the Aether or the 5th element represents the finer substance of the soul and connector of all the other elements. The power of this symbol is very deep, universal, and is one of the most important sacred geometrical shapes. The fact that one pentagram can indefinitely go inside another pentagram, represent the infinity of the creative energy of the cosmos, represented in human beings as the drive of procreation and life with every succeeding generation. Her Sigil represents a case where spiritual alchemical notions inside a sigil are overabundant. It would not be an understatement to say that most if not all the mysteries of the human soul are explained in her very sigil.
