 Embodying Sovereignty: Working with Inanna and Lilith in Left-Hand Path Practices





In the realms of witchcraft and the left-hand path (LHP), deities like Inanna and Lilith offer profound avenues for self-empowerment, sovereignty, and the reclamation of feminine power. Inanna, the ancient Sumerian goddess of love, fertility, and war, and Lilith, the rebellious first wife of Adam, embody both the light and shadow of the feminine divine, making them perfect guides for modern witches seeking to walk the path of sovereignty and transformation. This post explores how working with these powerful deities can reshape your practice, focusing on their connection to the LHP and offering practical rituals, affirmations, and spiritual techniques.

1. The History and Legacy of Inanna
Inanna, one of the oldest deities known to humanity, was worshipped in Sumer. As the queen of heaven, she ruled over both fertility and destruction. Her famous myth, The Descent of Inanna, tells the tale of her journey to the underworld, where she sacrifices her royal garments, symbolizing the shedding of power. She returns reborn, a symbol of balance between light and darkness.

Inanna’s worship involved sacred sexuality, fertility rites, and magical practices to restore personal and societal balance.

2. The Feminine Power of Lilith: Rebellion and Sovereignty
Lilith is often misunderstood—she wasn’t cast out of the Garden of Eden, but left because she believed herself equal to Adam. Her refusal to submit to patriarchal authority made her a symbol of independence and rebellion. Lilith represents sexual freedom, the dark moon, and the untapped potential of shadow work. She invites you to embrace your primal nature and desires, empowering you to reclaim your personal sovereignty.

3. Inanna and Lilith as a Unified Goddess
Together, Inanna and Lilith form a powerful union of empowerment. Inanna’s light and Lilith’s darkness create a goddess who is both noble and rebellious, gentle and fierce. These two deities guide witches toward self-deification—encouraging you to embrace your inner power and reclaim your throne as the ruler of your life.

4. Working with Inanna and Lilith in the Modern Day
These goddesses are not just ancient symbols—they are living forces that can be invoked in your rituals and daily life. Here’s how you can connect with Inanna and Lilith today:

  • Rituals of Reclamation: Create rites that honor your inner royalty (Inanna) and inherent freedom (Lilith). Stand in your sovereign power, regardless of external circumstances.
  • Shadow Work: Confront your hidden desires, unhealed wounds, and rejected parts of yourself. Lilith helps guide you through the darkness, while Inanna’s descent and return show the growth that comes from facing painful truths.
  • Affirmations of Power: Integrate daily affirmations to reinforce your self-sovereignty. Both Inanna and Lilith remind you that true power comes from within.

5. The Role of Sigils and Symbols
Sigils can connect you to the energies of Inanna and Lilith. Combining Inanna’s eight-pointed star (symbolizing sovereignty) and Lilith’s crescent moon (representing rebellion and primal nature) creates a potent sigil for manifestation, empowerment, and protection. Use this sigil in your rituals to invoke the combined force of these goddesses.

6. Ritual of Sovereignty: "The Crown of the Untamed"
A Rite of Power for modern witches who seek to claim their dominion.

Materials Needed:

  • A dark mirror or black water
  • A crown, diadem, or veil
  • Two candles: black and red
  • A dagger or athame
  • Wine, blood, or honey as an offering
  • Incense (Dragon’s Blood, Myrrh, or Frankincense)

Steps:

  1. Light the black candle and say:
    “I step beyond illusion, into the truth of my being.”
  2. Light the red candle and declare:
    “No god, no law, no fate binds me. I am the maker of my own path.”
  3. Gaze into the mirror and whisper:
    “I look upon my own divinity.”
  4. Hold your dagger over your heart and say:
    “I am the one who claims my throne.”
  5. Place your crown upon your head and speak:
    “I walk as one who needs no permission.”
  6. Close the ritual with an offering and walk forward as a sovereign being.

7. Final Thoughts: Empowerment Through the Duality of Inanna and Lilith
Inanna and Lilith are the ultimate symbols of feminine power. Inanna’s divine sovereignty and Lilith’s primal freedom invite you to embrace the totality of your being—transcending limitations and societal expectations. As you reclaim your throne, step into your full power as both queen and rebel.

Greetings, I am Countess Mortisma St. Macabre, known as Countess to my family. From a young age, I was captivated by the mysteries of gods and goddesses, awakening a deep spiritual awareness. This curiosity evolved into a relentless quest for esoteric knowledge, though it was not easily accessible at the time. Life's priorities shifted, and I dedicated myself to raising my children, putting my spiritual path on hold. In 2006, I made a life-changing covenant with Satan and Lilith, discovering my true family in the Brotherhood of Satan. Within this Coven, I embraced my identity as a witch and practitioner of the dark arts, ascending to the role of High Priestess of Satanas and Lilith. In 2007, I created Legion, a sanctuary for witches facing discrimination, a safe space to share knowledge and support one another. To further my dedication to Lilith, I founded Daughters of Lilith on January 14, 2011, focusing on deepening my connection with my Dark Mother and expanding the community of like-minded practitioners.
