Greeting’s heathens and witches,
Welcome to the Horn and Cauldron podcast…
One of the Anunnaki, Enki is the Sumerian god of water, knowledge, crafts, and keeper of the divine powers called Me. Enki is a complicated and many faceted god, and as patron god of one of the oldest temples in one of the world’s oldest cities, many of the themes associated with him echo through time, mythology, and religion.
In this episode, we discuss Enki’s iconography, family, and his temple. We also talk about the ways you can work with Enki and what his energy is like, share our personal takes, and experiences with him and the idea of leaving offerings. We also read an excerpt of one of Enki’s primary myths, “Enki and the World Order.”
Note:
In this episode, we mention @miniminuteman’s videos about Ur. We were incorrect—he does not visit Ur in these videos, but he does visit several sites in southern Turkey, some of which are even older than Ur.
