Mythology Summary
Canaanite mother goddess, consort of El (and possibly YHWH in early Hebrew practice). Systematically erased from Hebrew scripture through religious reforms. Sacred trees and poles destroyed. Represents feminine divinity suppressed by monotheistic patriarchy. Goddess whose worship was forbidden, whose consort relationship was erased, whose trees were cut down. Teaches about systematic erasure, reclamation of suppressed feminine, sovereignty stolen through narrative.
Modern Practice
Patron of those reclaiming suppressed feminine, erasure survivors, those working with sacred trees. Invoked for reclamation work, honoring erased divinity, tree magic, ocean work. Teaches that erasure is violence, that suppressed divinity seeks reclamation, that some goddesses were deliberately forgotten.
