Akitu 2021
Akitu marks the Mesopotamian festival of spring and the new year. In ancient times, the last 12 days of Akitu were marked by special ceremonies and observances. The most basic ceremony celebrated the spring barley harvest. On a deeper level, Akitu is a celebration of the human spirt, a renewal of nature’s colors and life. Shamash, the sun god, gives his golden light to all creatures on earth; were the birds sing songs calling for love.
Akitu is not complete without Inanna (or Ishtar) the goddess and queen of love, war and fertility. Ishtar has had so many mystery lovers, among the most notable was Tammuz, to whom the gods allowed him to emerge again every spring when the Earth will become green and animals will flourish. Ishtar’s desire for love and renewal has no end. Celebrate the nature and love , love the animals and all creatuers , sing , Dance and enjoy freedom feel you are God.
