Gula: The Healer Who Mended a World That Feared Its Own Wounds
In this episode, we meet Gula, the ancient Mesopotamian goddess of healing, a deity once so revered that kings carved her name into stone, physicians trained in her temples, and entire cities claimed her as their protector. Yet over time, as patriarchal rule reshaped storytelling and erased female authority, Gula was slowly pushed into the background and replaced by male healing figures.
Through a feminist lens, we reclaim her story as a fierce sovereign of medicine, forgiveness, restoration, and truth-speaking. We explore how Ahimsa, the yogic principle of non-harm, illuminates her power: not just the gentleness of healing, but the courage to stop wounding ourselves with shame, guilt, resentment, and self-abandonment.
We’ll explore why her voice was silenced, how ancient cultures once centered female healers, and how returning to Gula reconnects us to the medicine we’ve carried all along.
✨ Includes:
— A feminist retelling of Gula’s mythology

And if you're not on my email list yet, come join me. Every month I honor a different goddess with a ritual you can do at home, an energetic snapshot of the astrology shaping the month, and an exclusive subliminal crafted specifically for that goddess’s frequency. It’s free, it’s sacred, and it keeps you connected to the living feminine current.
Until next time… stay sovereign.
