Ok so… I have this little altar to Anahit. I’m still grappling with my feelings about posting this, but I need to get it out somewhere (it’s not like anyone will notice or read a long post like this anyway lol). It’s not much, as I’m disguising it as a Knick-knack situation. I don’t even know how to go about any of this. I’m in my 30s, should I be praying to a goddess? I need hope and she gives me that, even if I have to do it in private. Thankfully my family is used to incense bc my mother burns it a lot for her Christian prayer, so I can just say I like the smell of it.

The description of it makes it sound nicer than it is imo: Armenian doll, obsidian from Armenia, a wooden pomegranate from Armenia, and a silver arevakhatch for the benefactress of all Armenians. Gold colored brass incense burners (one shaped like a peacock, which is one of Anahita’s sacred animals, so I associate it with Anahit as well), a gold colored bowl, a gold colored diadem, and my gold chain and pendant for the voskemayr. The two gold-ish glass votives: one contains coins and the other contains pebbles from the beach and evil eye jewelry. For a representation of her, I found a little print/sticker of John William Godward’s “Head of a girl (priestess)” and have put it in the center. I also have 2 pins I got from the Louvre when I went, I’ve decided to have Winged Victory (Nike) as a representation of Nane, and Venus de Milo as a representation of Astkhig. After all, if I had an alter I’d think it would be nice to give a little space for my sister who I love too. And for the wooden shelf, I just thought it was neat so I put pretty things that I’ve collected on it.

I sorta want a community of people to share all this with. I dunno.

this is me again and my besties nane and anahit aka armenian goddesses of motherhood ( i have other arts of anahit and nane but these ones are for my project so i want to show them )

nane while being the goddess of motherhood is also goddess of war and wisdom. yes she is versatile ... and also she kinda look like athena

and anahit is basically The Golden Mother. she was one of the most revered deity in great armenia. and also the statue of her head is in the british museum in london. but it's too similar to aphrodite so i drew anahit differently

some historians say that nane and anahit ( and astghik but i would like to tell you about her later ) are one goddess but who knows ?

tbh i prefer to think that they are very different goddesses with very different characters

ERMENİ TANRIÇASI ANAHİT

Ermeni bereket, şifa, bilgelik ve su tanrıçası Anahit.

Yunan tarihçi, coğrafyacı ve filozof Strabon'a göre Ermeniler Perslerin ve Medlerin dinine bağıydı ve özellikle Anaitis'e saygı duyuyorlardı.

Ermenistan kralları "tarikatın kararlı destekçileriydi" ve III. Tiridates "Resmi olarak Aramazd-Anahit-Vahagn üçlüsüne dua ediyordu ama büyük hanımefendi Anahit'e özel bir bağlılık gösteriyordu.

Bütün insan ırkının, bütün bilgilerin anası, büyük Aramazd'ın kızı Anahit.

Doğurganlık, şifa, bilgelik ve su diyarlarını kutsayan Ermeni tanrıçası Anahit.

Ermeni maneviyatının dokusunda Anahit'in varlığı derindir; hem kralların hem de halkın bağlılığının dokusuna işlemişti

Çoğunlukla Ermenistan'ın Artashat bölgesindeki Anahit tapınakları, Tanrıça Anahit'in onların iyileşmesine ve iyileşmesine yardım edeceğine inanıldığı için hastaları ve hastaları karşıladığı biliniyordu.

Aramazd, Anahit ve Vahagn'ın iç içe geçtiği; bilgeliği, refahı ve yaşamın besleyici akışını arayanların kalplerine rehberlik eden ilahi bir üçlü.

Anahit adı dünya çapındaki Ermeni topluluklarında yaygındır ve yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır.

Ermeni tarih derslerinden Afrodit'ten ilham alan erotik sanatlara kadar Anahit, Ermeni paganizminin anası olarak kabul edilir.

Bugün British Museum'da sergilenen baştan çıkarıcı kadının bronz kafası, çoğu zaman ona atıf için kullanılan tek semboldür.

Just in case, some might enjoy. Had to organize some notes.

These are just some of the newer texts that had been promoted in the past few years at the online home of the American Association of Geographers. At: [aag dot org/new-books-for-geographers/]

Tried to narrow down selections to focus on Indigenous, Black, anticolonial, Latin American, oceanic/archipelagic geographies; imaginaries and environmental perception; mobility, borders, carceral/abolition geography; literary and musical ecologies.
