Note: The content on this page can be viewed from various perspectives. It is up to the reader whether they engage with Ishtar as a spiritual deity, see her—based on her values and the stories about her—as a philosophical compass and/or role model or shining example, perceive her as a recurring visitor from other worlds, or understand Ishtar as a personality type or character trait of certain historical figures. Some may identify with only one aspect, others with all. It is important to listen to oneself, self-reflect, and even perform a kind of compatibility check. The devotion to Ishtar is by no means intended to force anyone into something whose values they do not share; rather, it aims to help find the "true self" within. Furthermore, this page serves to expose the rumors and falsehoods spread about Ishtar.
Although I do not adhere to a specific belief in gods, the figure of Ishtar and her associated concepts resonate deeply with my values and core philosophies. Consequently, my logos and tattoos are centered around her. Explaining my fundamental personality is more readily achieved through her name than by referencing extensive literary works. Furthermore, this serves as a declaration against prevailing societal norms with which I often disagree.

Values and Priorities in Accordance with Ishtar
Self-Preservation
Self-preservation is the highest priority, for one who does not exist cannot struggle, and one who cannot struggle cannot live. Self-preservation can also extend to life partners, family members, members of one's tribe/people, or one's own nation. Ensuring the existence of fellow tribe members thereby secures one's own existence. Protecting one's own nation or the society in which one lives can also safeguard one's own existence. Ishtar is also the goddess of political power.
The Protection of the Innocent and the Punishment of the Guilty
As a mother goddess, Ishtar stands for strong families and the protection of those who cannot yet fight for themselves. Families ensure the continuation of one's own kind. The protection of the "little ones," or children, from negative physical as well as psychological influences, is a top priority alongside self-preservation, for they are the building blocks of the future of one's people. If an individual consciously inflicts suffering or pain upon another, or harasses another person without grounds for self-defense, that individual has become "guilty." The guilty must be punished in proportion to their deed, considering its impact and feasibility, in such a way that they experience the suffering they caused, either physically or mentally. For example, if someone steals a sheep from another, it would be just if, after the sheep is returned to its owner, something of similar value were taken from the thief. If someone takes another person's life without grounds for self-defense, it would be just if they themselves forfeited their life. Punishments should, whenever possible, be carried out by the victims of the acts or their closest relatives.
The Joy of Life
Humans are meant to be happy. Being in harmony with oneself not only feels good but is also conducive to health. In this spirit, there should be no prohibitions that restrict an individual in their life or thoughts, as long as that individual's pursuits do not cause harm or suffering to others.

The Demonization of Ishtar
Many are familiar with the narratives from Abrahamic* religious scriptures, where figures like Lucifer, Satan, or Şeytan embody supposed evil. This often includes traits like lust or sensuality, "greed," envy, and warlike thoughts or actions. For millennia, followers of these Abrahamic faiths committed atrocities against dissenters in the name of their god(s). Witch burnings, forced conversions, torture, and death were inflicted upon those deemed unbelievers or heretics.
Read on to understand how Ishtar was turned into a figure representing the "devil" to legitimize Abrahamic religions, sustain them for millennia, and divide humanity.

This article is about the specific figure in the Abrahamic religions that seduces humans into sin. For personifications of evil in various cultures and religious traditions around the world, see Devil. For other uses, see Satan (disambiguation).
Satan, also known as the Devil, is an entity in the Abrahamic religions that seduces humans into sin or falsehood. In Christianity and Islam, he is usually seen as either a fallen angel or a genie, who used to possess great piety and beauty, but rebelled against God, who nevertheless allows him temporary power over the fallen world and a host of demons. In Judaism, Satan is typically regarded as a metaphor for the yetzer hara, or "evil inclination", or as an agent subservient to God.
Self-Preservation and Other "Sins"
(click to expand)
Behaviors like envy, avarice/greed, ambition, anger, etc., were portrayed negatively allegedly because they could lead to conflict and potentially murder. Instead of processing these thoughts and emotions, understanding them, addressing their root causes, and/or learning to live with them, they were simply forbidden and suppressed. Furthermore, their positive aspects were ignored. For instance, anger arising from injustice can lead to discussion, confrontation, and potentially finding solutions. Lust, sensuality, and vanity were also labeled sinful and suppressed. Ignored was the fact that suppressed desires can lead to serious psychological deviations and/or frustration. No value was placed on helping individuals understand and manage their needs. The prevailing attitude was akin to: "Anyone who feels desire will prey on others like an animal".
Revenge, they say, is wrong, and conscientious objection is always best. Because people were led to believe in a better afterlife where God would ensure injustices were "punished," revenge naturally became negative. While war and weaponry were attributed to the "devil," "the Church" among others used these very tools for millennia in crusades against "unbelievers". Besides suppressing traits that can lead to both positive and negative actions, there was an attempt to unlearn humanity's innate self-preservation instinct¹. Independent thinking and self-responsible action are, after all, undesirable. Only those who are completely dependent make good slaves ... good sheep for the "Shepherd ²" God.
*¹ Matthew 5:38-42 (NRSVUE): "You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39 But I say to you: Do not resist an evildoer. But if anyone strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other also; 40 and if anyone wants to sue you and take your coat, give your cloak as well; 41 and if anyone forces you to go one mile, go also the second mile." *² Bible Psalm 23: The Lord is my shepherd
Symbols and Names of the Goddess
In the early history of humanity, there were likely first descriptions, circumscriptions, and names for the Goddess, later figurines, names, and then symbols. Figures of the "Mother Goddess" date back very far, while well-preserved symbols are only a few thousand years old, and her name has changed repeatedly over the millennia, or has been changed.
Ishtar's symbols included lions, serpents, and depictions of a nude woman; later, the Ishtar star became particularly prominent. Over time (before and during the rise of Abrahamic religions), the eight-pointed star evolved into a pentagram. This pentagram arose from observations and calculations of planetary movements, specifically Venus. Later, the symbol for Venus ♀ (representing a hand mirror) transformed into a pentagram or Tetragrammaton, a pentacle, and in modern times, sometimes associated with Baphomet (linked to Lucifer/Satan). For example, Lucifer is known as the morning star, the light-bringer, etc.. The morning star is Venus. Tracing Venus back thousands of years, long before Abrahamic religions, leads to the female goddess ISHTAR. Thus, the circle closes.
Image Description: Position of Venus at inferior conjunction from 2020-2028. The graphic shows the so-called Venus pentagram. Over eight years, the positions of Venus at inferior conjunction trace a nearly closed pentagram in the sky. Besides the mythological background, the connection of the diagram to the rhythm of Venus transits (e.g., 2004 and 2012) is particularly interesting. The positions of the solstices and equinoxes on the ecliptic are also marked. Source: Wikipedia
The eight-pointed star is a symbol used in some cultures to represent Venus, sometimes combined into a star and crescent arrangement. Here, the eight pointed star is the Star of Ishtar, the Babylonian Venus goddess, alongside the solar disk of her brother Shamash and the crescent moon of their father Sin on a boundary stone of Meli-Shipak II, dating to the 12th century BC.
Ishtar's Names and Values
Ishtar—also known as Inanna, Ashtart, Astarte, Aphrodite, Venus, Isis, potentially linked to figures like Pinikir, Neith, Gaia, Anat, Astghik/Astłik, Gingira, Lilith, Frey(a)/Frigg, and even associated through symbolic evolution or demonization with Astaroth, Lucifer, SATAN, and potentially primordial concepts like the Snake Goddess (i.e., TIAMAT / Leviathan / Chaos / Universe) — had hymns dedicated to her, which included lines such as:
Ištar, called the goddess of all gods, the mistress of all houses, the leader of humankind, greater than all other gods. Her word is strong, and her name is strong. As the heavenly goddess, she illuminates heaven and earth. She bears weapons and arranges the battle order; she is the wisest among the great gods. She is the star of the battle cry and can turn brother against brother, friend against friend. She is the mistress of battle, and she throws herself against the mountains. When her name is called, heaven and earth tremble. All people revere her name; her following is known everywhere. She decides with justice; she looks with mercy upon the oppressed and mistreated and brings them justice. She runs swiftly; she holds the reins of kings and opens the veils of women. She is the shining torch of heaven and earth, the light of all dwellings, the fire that radiates against the enemy. Through her grace, the dying become healthy again, the sick rise, and those treated unjustly find prosperity when they behold her. She is the goddess of men and women. Her heart is a raging lion, her spirit a wild bull. The faithful pray that Ištar's wild spirit may calm, that she may consistently look upon them with grace, that her sweet breath may blow towards them, and that they may walk in her light. May she keep them alive.
Colors of the Goddess
Besides the famous blue of the Ishtar Gate—likely used for its rarity and unparalleled intensity—red, white, and black are the colors that most strongly express the Goddess's values.
Red: (Signal color) Passion, courage, desire, love, death, danger, loyalty, war/struggle.
Black: (Contrast) The occult, the unknown, curiosity, exploration, protection, camouflage, secret knowledge, mystery.
White: (Contrast) Healing, innocence, enlightenment, defense, peace, knowledge, wisdom, experience.
Ishtar's colors were later used, among others, with her stars (both 8- and 5-pointed) in various flags, often in the flags of countries where her following was based or widespread, primarily in the Middle East.

Ishtar symbol history.
Ishtar represents enlightenment or true understanding. Many who seek this understanding journey along diverse paths, often moving from "critical inquiry" through "anti-Christian views" to "Satanism." From such points, reaching Ishtar is but another step – a step that involves re-examining, re-analyzing, and re-evaluating everything previously encountered. The reason many are guided through these intermediate stages likely lies in established historical narratives and the prevailing influence of the "three major monotheistic religions and their adherents."
Numerous symbols and ancient practices have been misappropriated, defamed, reinterpreted, or even newly created to intercept individuals on their path to enlightenment and lead them astray. For example, the "Pentagram" was transformed into the "Baphomet." Some of Ishtar's core values were adopted, blended with Abrahamic concepts, and from this, the "Church of Satan" was formed. Much like a musical artist might "cover" an original song in their own style, the authentic Ishtar traditions were, in a sense, reinterpreted by others. This often explains the initial strong affinity many seekers feel towards the Church of Satan or what is generally termed Satanism.
However, an affinity for the Church of Satan is problematic only if it becomes a final destination, causing one to stagnate there (and/or commit unforgivable acts). Fundamentally, the Church of Satan, much like other Abrahamic-inspired cults and "religions," can act as "honeypots." Whether intentionally or unintentionally, these serve to obscure the truth (or "throw sand in the eyes" of the seeker) and divert them from the genuine path to enlightenment. Paradoxically, these "honeypots," when viewed as intermediate stops, can inadvertently function as rungs on a ladder or steps on a staircase. They possess both negative and positive aspects. This is partly because adversaries have historically either mixed truths with falsehoods to appear credible and logical, or they have presented partial truths while withholding crucial information. The positive aspect is that the seeker may gather fragments of information piece by piece, prompting further searching and discovery. The negative aspect is that those who cease to question further may remain at one of these stages, potentially never attaining true enlightenment.
The 80/20 Principle
(click to expand)
Regarding the many "satanic" and Abrahamic cults, which are often more or less adaptations or defamations of the cults surrounding Ishtar, the following should be noted:
Many scriptures of such cults, like those of the Church of Satan for instance, process 80% truths mixed with 20% lies or omissions. The reason is straightforward: the 20% of lies or concealed information serves as the control mechanism, while the 80% of truth is merely there to make the entire construct appear credible. Similar to patterns seen in politics, Zipf's Law, and the Pareto principle (the 80/20 rule), it is this crucial 20% that dictates the direction and essentially upholds the entire framework. The followers of Abraham have allegedly employed this principle for millennia. Through this method, many prophets were simply renamed or their gender altered, stories and events originally attributed to the Goddess were ascribed to other gods, prophets, or angels, and much more.
Therefore, read the scriptures of these perceived adversaries: Bibles in any version, the Quran, the Talmud, Kabbalah, the Satanic Bible, Liber AL vel Legis, and all similar texts. Too often, you will find a distortion of facts, slight alterations of names, or even contexts twisted to favor the Abrahamic followers and worshipers of יהוה (YHWH/JAHWEH) – characterized here as the god of wrath, destruction, and the oppression of humanity.
Even "established" historical accounts these days must, willingly or unwillingly, expose many falsehoods or concede to their unmasking, as illustrated in the following example:
Based on misinterpretations of the Tanakh and driven by religious interests, a false image of the Babylonian Exile is often painted, even today. For instance, Psalm 137 is sometimes used to depict the "population as captives forced into slave labor, who, at the end of the day, sit by the rivers of Babylon weeping and thinking of Zion." It is likely that the exile was perceived as a religious punishment; however, externally, the Jews in Babylon experienced comfortable living conditions. Like other Jewish communities settled in various colonies, they could engage in trade, agriculture, and house building without coercion. Even slave ownership was permitted. The exiles managed their own administration. There is no evidence of forced labor specifically imposed on the Jews. It is only known that the general Babylonian population was, in certain cases, compelled into short-term corvée labor, such as for royal construction projects. During the Babylonian Exile, the Jews were able to preserve their traditions and religious identity. The Jews settled in and around Babylon assimilated quite rapidly. Thus, Jewish names found in written records show that Jews could pursue careers in Nebuchadnezzar II's court and military. There are also reports of Jewish banking dynasties. According to the biblical narrative in the Book of Daniel (part of the Tanakh), Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were among the chosen exiles who received training for Babylonian civil service. This rapid assimilation and the associated temptation to adopt a foreign religion likely contributed to the rather bleak picture of the Babylonian Exile painted in the Tanakh. To prevent Jewish identity from being completely absorbed into Babylon's diverse melting pot of peoples, Jewish theologians and scholars emphasized the uniqueness of Judaism, especially the Jewish faith. The Torah and religious scholarship became central to life. Consequently, the Babylonian Exile is considered one of the most fertile periods for Jewish theology. Given the absence of the home temple for communal prayer, the first synagogues probably emerged during this time. According to historical-critical biblical scholarship, the final version of the Pentateuch, the Priestly source, also originated during this period, in which, among other things, the regulations for circumcision (Gen 17:10–14 EU) were added. (Source: Wikipedia)
And this is merely a fraction of the truth. Based on this example and its factual presentation, one quickly notices how a 20% alteration or misinterpretation can drastically distort the perception of events, aligning with the 80/20 principle discussed earlier.
Identity and Defamation
(click to expand)
Ishtar and all her attributes were twisted into negatives. Women who practically applied knowledge (like Ishtar) were burned as witches. Their knowledge could only come from the devil, it was said. If a woman, like the Goddess herself, persuaded through charm, charisma, or beauty, she was accused of making a pact with the devil. If a woman was ready to fight to defend her rights or those of her loved ones, she was declared possessed, and exorcism was practiced on her. Every trait that recognized the individual as such and distinguished them as an independent living being, separate from gods, was deemed evil and thus attributed to the devil.
Ishtar - Mother of Humans and All Life!
The universe brings forth life, so it can be understood as feminine. The universe is also described as chaos, as a serpent or serpent goddess. The serpent, in many cultures, is often depicted as a guardian, keeper of secrets, symbol of fertility, a stairway to the afterlife or the firmament, and as the "tempter" of humans. The Bible states that the serpent tempted humans to eat from the "Tree of Knowledge". Knowledge is positive; someone who opens my eyes to understanding cannot be evil. But here again, we see a parallel to the "light-bringer" Lucifer, who brings light into darkness to help the seeker find truth and/or a solution. (This, in turn, also leads to RA (the sun god / light).)
Genesis 3:1-5 (NRSVUE): 1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other wild animal that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God say, ‘You shall not eat from any tree in the garden’?” 2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden; 3 but God said, ‘You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, nor shall you touch it, or you shall die.’” 4 But the serpent said to the woman, “You will not die; 5 for God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”
One can assume that even the ancient Egyptian empire had already split Ishtar into multiple deities. Ishtar, the universe, the life-giver, was likely the first thing humans recognized as a goddess/universal force. Everything "divine" that followed was first fragmented, adapted, transformed, later defamed and instrumentalized in favor of freely invented philosophies and religions aiming to control and oppress humanity (e.g., no human should rise above God Almighty, etc.).
It was done as it has always been done: many deities, regardless of gender, were either masculinized* and called God or portrayed as the devil, to whom all behaviors or practices deemed reprehensible by Abrahamic followers were then attributed.
Even today, so-called Satanists fall for this, recognizing and even venerating attributes largely created/named by Christianity as "satanic," and living by them. Satanism is often lived merely as a counterpoint to Christianity and its supposed positive values. Christianity labels sensuality as sin; Satanists adopt this sin as a commandment. For example, monogamy is viewed negatively by some so-called "Satanists," while polygamy is highly praised. In reality, sensuality is neither; it is a natural desire for which one need neither be ashamed nor suppress it. Everyone can decide for themselves whether they want to live polygamously or monogamously. This aligns entirely with the philosophy of the goddess Ishtar. If Satan (freed from Abrahamic-influenced characteristics) is actually ISHTAR, and if she originates long before Abrahamic religions, then all modern attributes assigned to this goddess have either been taken out of context, misinterpreted, and/or simply concealed or censored.
Winning the Battle!
(click to expand)
History repeats itself: initially, the Goddess was named Chaos, not negatively, but factually. Chaos in the sense of the universe and its chaotic nature to mortals. Interestingly, "Chaos" was known by the name TIAMAT; Tiamat, in turn, is a (the) goddess but was also often depicted as a "serpent". Furthermore, there was the "Snake Goddess". (Images of the goddess for better understanding follow later on the page.) In many cultures and civilizations, Ishtar appears under many names but with the same or similar attributes and values, which were only transformed into negative aspects or "sins" with the spread of Abrahamic beliefs.
Followers of Abrahamic faiths have thus been waging a battle against Ishtar since their existence by denying her true identity and replacing it with their Abrahamic fear-based propaganda. Consequently, the devil, in that form, does not truly exist.
This means modern "Satanism," with the misanthropic attributes and values ascribed to it by Christians, Jews, and Muslims, is also a fabrication. If the universe was/is the beginning (infinity ∞), and the universe is understood as Chaos, which in turn is Tiamat, and Tiamat is understood as Ishtar, and Ishtar is (today) understood as Satan, then Ishtar, even if simply called Satan, is what was there first. Therefore, the Abrahamic religions are fabricated and indeed serve only the oppression of people. Now one might say there is no Satanism, Christianity, Islam, or Judaism. I would immediately disagree; clearly, all these exist. Anything a person wants to believe in exists, at least in imagination. Whether these beliefs contain truths (and which ones) is another question. There is a war that "we" must win. Only through enlightenment will people awaken and be freed from the slavery of old and new oppressors! - Ishtar is enlightenment! In her name, for "our" collective well-being!
Analyzing Religious Concepts and Their Perceived Impact
(click to expand)
(IMPORTANT PREFACE: The following section analyzes certain religious doctrines and their historical interpretations. This critique is directed solely at the ideas and ideological structures, particularly those perceived by the author as promoting exclusivity or suppression, and their alleged historical consequences. It explicitly excludes any criticism of individuals or groups of people based on their faith or background. The aim is to examine specific theological concepts, not to target modern adherents or communities.)
Within some religious traditions, certain concepts can be interpreted in ways that raise questions about universalism versus exclusivity. One example discussed historically is the concept of a "Chosen People."
This theological idea, originating in Judaism, has various interpretations. The term itself can be translated as selected, picked, or elected. Many within modern Judaism understand this "chosenness" not as inherent superiority, but as a profound ethical responsibility—a "priestly function" (as described in Exodus 19:3-6, aiming to be a "kingdom of priests and a holy nation") to act as mediators between God and creation, serving as a "light to the nations" (Isaiah). This view emphasizes responsibility and representation, regardless of physical location, asserting that the "Jewish soul is never in exile."
However, from the critical perspective presented in this text, interpretations of such doctrines—particularly those emphasizing unique status or divine selection for one group—can be perceived as creating a framework that inherently challenges the equality of all people and belief systems. The argument here is that if any group's theological framework positions its adherents as exclusive agents or priests of a God, especially a God in whose name the freedom of others has been suppressed, then that ideological stance itself could be viewed as fundamentally opposing universal freedom and alternative spiritual paths. This critique focuses on the potential implications of the doctrine as contributing to the broader historical narrative of suppression that this text aims to dismantle, contrasting it with the perceived inclusivity or focus on individual liberation attributed to Ishtar.
Is There Life After Death?
(click to expand)
It is not unlikely that such a thing exists. However, it is unlikely that anyone could ever report back from it.
How could experiences or life lived impact an afterlife? If this were possible, it would most likely occur through creative means. Alongside many other methods and emotions, creativity and longing are those that most illuminate our brain, or the energy within it (neural connections, etc.). One might think that through various methods and states of mind, energy could be paired with itself or multiplied. Assuming energy is never neutralized, it is conceivable that when the body decays, the energy contained within it converts into something else or is transported into a parallel space of our reality. There are already theories today that information (thoughts and consciousness are also information) could be stored in "space" or "light". So, it is not impossible that one could exist as an energy being in subspace or lead a kind of next life in another, isolated universe. There could be, for example, a vessel ready for specific frequencies of certain energies. Perhaps it is also the case that from vessel to vessel, energy is always multiplied in a different way through the experiences gathered in each one. If there is life after death, one should live the present life as long as possible to gather much energy/information/experience. It could also be that one simply lives in an eternal dream. If this were the case, those who practiced lucid dreaming and/or meditation during their "lifetime" would benefit.
Whether and how another life might occur after the decay of the current body is ultimately irrelevant. If it does happen, one is well-advised to make the best of what one has, feel good, and be creative. This requires neither a god nor fear or hope of life after death.
Why Ishtar or a Path Centered on Ishtar Then?
(click to expand)
Many might wonder at this point why, if one doesn't directly believe in an afterlife or paradise, one should adopt/live the spirituality or philosophy of Ishtar. Essentially, it's about the values, community, and the struggle against the oppression of humanity. Only those who know freedom are willing to fight for it. People whose existence is voluntarily restricted by religions will ultimately accept any form of oppression, whether from Abrahamic religions or a harmful government. The fight for humanity's freedom begins with freeing one's own mind! Living with Ishtar or according to her values should not be coercion, but merely serve as inspiration—a sign that there is something primordial one can identify with and/or turn to when uncertain or made insecure by one's environment. It also stimulates creativity to give a face or name to what one believes in. Furthermore, Ishtar serves as evidence that, for example, Abrahamic "beliefs" are merely invented and potentially harmful. (How can your God have created everything, if everything supposedly created by him postdates Ishtar? Judaism ~5784 years old*, Christianity ~2025 years old, Islam ~1446 years old (Based on traditional dating relative to current year 2025 CE; original text cited 2020. See #JudentumAlter) while ISHTAR/images/figures/stories are older and/or e.g., under other names like "Venus of Hohle Fels," are at least 35,000-40,000 years old?).*
People become malicious for various reasons, and not everyone is born enlightened. That is precisely why it is important to have a guidepost to follow. Or a wake-up call from the Abrahamic coma. Each Abrahamic religious community contains interpretations or historical instances that appear to devalue other peoples or beliefs. In the Old Testament, for example, there are passages condemning Phoenicians and others. Within Jewish texts, there are historical passages that have been interpreted as viewing non-Jews differently. Within Islamic texts, certain interpretations advocate struggle against "unbelievers." Women are also subject to devaluation and/or restriction in various interpretations: sometimes seen negatively as temptresses in Christianity, similarly in some Islamic views where covering is mandated, and in certain Orthodox Jewish traditions where women cover their hair with wigs or scarves.
Ishtar represents or embodies the freedom and/or equality of women. This is shown partly through Ishtar's consistently lightly clad appearance and partly through her warlike nature. The latter can also be understood as signifying equality with men.
