Tirza Schaefer: Romance Author & Goddess Facilitator

Inanna is a Goddess who is not prone to compromise or submission. She is confident, demanding and unashamed in attaining her desires. She is an empowered woman who is in tune with her own sexuality. Thus, she is a great role model for women in the sense that it is good to lay down and let go of our shame and embrace our often much suppressed sexuality and being in tune with our bodies.

Inanna teaches us to go for what we want and put ourselves first. It doesn’t mean you have to (but can if you want to) change your lovers frequently or send them straight to hell after they’ve served their purpose, but it means, you do have a choice and you should choose freely how and when you wish to live your sexuality and your creative powers, whichever form that may take.

Inanna is a goddess who liberates women and shows them their procreative powers, both in the physical sense of conceiving children, but also that we have the power to create our own reality the way we want it to be (and in fact do, albeit mostly on a subconscious level). Inanna is your inner creative force that can be both used for new creations and the destruction of all that no longer serves you without regard to what others think or expect of us.

Inanna teaches us to liberate ourselves from any constraints put upon us by family, society or, especially, our own limiting beliefs, feelings of guilt and shame. You can work with the energy she represents when wanting to explore your sexuality, conceive a child or go boldly out into the world and claim your place in it. She is your inner fierce lioness, your inner wild lover and your unbridled, primeval divine creative power.
