Description
Myth Made Manifest
Over 4000 years ago in ancient Sumer, some of the first mythographers inscribed the stories and myths of the Goddess Inanna on clay tablets in cuneiform. These incredible findings were unearthed, and the fragments were painstakingly pieced together and translated.
What they discovered were the ways Inanna was heralded as a goddess who embodies polarities: impatient and deliberate, an attentive lover and fierce warrior, connected to fertility as well as death—making her an accessible, relatable, and inspiring representation of the Divine Feminine as she stands in her power and multidimensionality. The Way of Inanna: A Heroine’s Guide to Living Unapologetically is a field guide to heart-centered living through the wisdom of the Sumerian Goddess of Love.
Each chapter deconstructs sacred narratives in which the Goddess navigates the seven gates of her soul’s journey from awakening to ascension. More than a simple retelling, the book is myth made manifest in which Inanna becomes a means to accessing our own ascension and alchemical magic within our modern, contemporary context.
With a combined psychotherapeutic and spiritual approach, author Seana Zelazo offers rituals and practices to help readers connect directly with Inanna. From harnessing your sensual energy to reclaiming the generative capacity of the Divine Feminine and identifying and amplifying your life’s purpose, you will discover the ways Inanna’s process is your own.

Reviews
The Way of Inanna: A Heroine’s Guide to Living Unapologetically is a wonderful summation of the myths of Inanna and a how-to guidebook for living her mysteries. As Zelazo weaves these myths she illuminates the way forward for all of us. —William Henry, ascension scholar, art historian, and author
This book is a magical journey through myth, personal discovery, and transformative ritual using the ancient wisdom legends of the Goddess Inanna. Deeply insightful, the author, as a psychotherapist, historian, and mesmerizing storyteller, brings Inanna’s trials and tribulations to life. Along the way she gives us tools, revelations, and rituals for our own healing and transformation. —Tricia McCannon, author of Return of the Divine Sophia and The Angelic Origins of the Soul
The Way of Innana is a wonderful book that fills in the important gap in Goddess studies with practical steps. Each chapter is called a ‘gate’ to a different form of empowering consciousness such as healing ancestral relationships, setting sacred boundaries, achieving a positive body image and transcending guilt to name the few. They are the initiatory steps that we can take in our daily lives to invoke the Goddess within. Seana Zelazo, with her training in psychology, created a magnificent step by step primer which helps women to address the final piece of the Goddess puzzle – the conscious return to her power which is ultimately your own. A brilliant and practical application for every day embodiment of the Goddess principle available to us all. —Dr. Joanna Kujawa, author of The Other Goddess: Mary Magdalene and the Goddesses of Eros and Secret Knowledge
