Grain and The Sky: Mesopotamian Rituals of Field and hearth

Return to the rhythms of the land. Reclaim the sacred in daily life.

Mesopotamian Rituals of Field and Hearth is a devotional and practical guide to spiritual living rooted in the oldest traditions of the Fertile Crescent. Drawing from the myths, gods, and agrarian lifeways of ancient Sumer, Akkad, and Babylon, this book offers rituals, seasonal insights, and sacred acts for those seeking to bring their practice closer to the earth-and closer to the gods.

Whether you tend a garden, bake bread, light your stove with care, or bless the threshold of your home, this book will help you walk the ancient path with intention and reverence.

Inside, you'll find:

• Seasonal rituals for planting, harvest, and home protection

• Festivals and myths of Inanna, Dumuzi, Ashnan, Nisaba, and others

• Sacred bread recipes and kitchen devotions

• Laments, prayers, and domestic magical acts

• A complete devotional year inspired by Mesopotamian cycles

• Suggestions for altar building, hearth blessings, and field offerings

Grounded and poetic, this book is for modern polytheists, land-based practitioners, and anyone called to honor the divine through the rituals of field and flame.
