    Shahmaran: Serpent Goddess of Ancient Turkey, who lived underground with her serpents. Taking a mortal man as her lover, she is in turn betrayed by him, a recurrent theme in Serpent Women Mythology.

We will also look at other examples in cultures as far afield as Japan, where the serpent people (also known as mermaids) were hunted and eaten, with the hopes their flesh would give the eater longevity and good health.

  • Lillith: the Serpent in the Garden
    Mar 14 2023

    In this episode of the KS Dragon Court podcast, we explore the legacy of three significant female figures in ancient mythology: Ninkharsag, Lillith, and Eve (also known as HawaH). Ninkharsag, a powerful goddess in Sumerian mythology, was revered as the mother of all gods and was often depicted as a symbol of fertility and creation. Lillith, on the other hand, was a figure from Jewish folklore who was believed to be the first wife of Adam. Despite being banished from the Garden of Eden, she remained an important figure in feminist and occult circles. Finally, we examine the story of Eve (HawaH) from Abrahamic religions and how her legacy has been shaped over time. From being blamed for the downfall of humanity to being celebrated as a symbol of resilience and empowerment, Eve's story continues to captivate people to this day. Throughout the episode, we explore the impact of these three iconic figures and how their stories continue to inspire and influence contemporary culture.
