I am going to relate my own first encounter with an Anunnaki being. While some readers may assume that all this is merely the result of imagination, I can tell that this experience completely transcended what is perceived as imagination, which is the mark of true Initiation. It happened some years ago, before I even heard of Joshua Free and the Mardukites. I was heavily involved in working with Solar/ Air spirits seeking knowledge of my Higher Self. (Sortileges, as featured in New Babylon Rising, Issue #3)
So there I was, sitting daily in darkened isolation inside my really small ritual room. The basic goal was to project myself through a black mirror into some Higher plane where I would discover some hidden wisdom about myself. I understood that the mirror was used as a focal point, and the best way to reach what I intended was to lift myself upward. The practical means to do so was to first cast a circle, then activate the Earth Gate via the Elements, then quite brutally throw myself up in Heaven (I would now utilize other methods, my awareness being wholly different than from back then).
The Plane I indeed reached was like an infinite light blue sky radiating a golden aura in which I was floating freely. There were clouds in the far distance, and whe-rever I flew, I could never reach them. I went there daily for some weeks, with no definite results aside from being re-freshed by this hidden light. Then, one night, again reaching the golden sky plane, I saw a shape in the distance. I clearly remember it’s features: it had no skin, only some flesh-like substance akin to crab flesh; it was white and yellow; it’s whole naked body was without legs, only some kind of tail, and large wings; it also did not have any facial features and seemed to be without a gender as well; it carried a sword radiating with strong, warm light.
From then on, every time I reached the sky plane, I saw this being. It would always remain silent. When I sought to unite myself with it’s energy, it covered me with it’s huge wings and carried me ever upward, until we reached what seemed like a huge sun, in which I thought I’d get consumed right away if I entered it. I was reluctant and fell back several times when near this force.
Eventually, I asked the entity to let me look through it’s eyes. What I was allowed seeing was bizarre and hard to describe; I was still somewhat floating, yet there seemed to be no up or down; no ‘directions’. I saw shapeless forms, moving – total nauseating confusion. The only thing I’m sure of when into this state, is that the whole was an electric green.
Throughout the month I repeated this. I grew closer to that plane and it’s entity, and one night, being again near the big sun the entity always brought me to, I felt my ego dissolve while my spirit raised itself right through the sun, immersing my being in overwhelming light.
Each month, our periodical publication “New Babylon
Rising” magazine focuses on the background of a
specific member of the Anunnaki or else a figure
that appears predominantly in a certain
tablet cycle.
For the Spring Akitu March 2012 Issue #3 of New Babylon Rising, the featured Anunnaki God/Goddess or Sumerian/Babylonian figure profiled is infamous INANNA-ISHTAR: GODDESS OF STARS.
INANNA (Babylonian: ISHTAR)
”Perhaps one of the most commonly
known of the energetic currents of the
mystical planets is the Venusian one
dedicated always to the “goddess of love
and war. This determined goddess was sure to
receive her place among all ancient
pantheons: Isis, Aphrodite, Ashtoreth…
and she is also known as the “goddess of
witches,” celebrated in their rites.” (Extracted from Liber-W)
“Our epics describe the ascent of Inanna up the pantheon, but in Babylon she was
firmly established as Ishtar in this
position, by the request of Marduk to
appease her.” (Book of Marduk by Nabu – Liber-W)
“Discord between lineages erupts when
Ishtar and Marduk were not united and
each took it upon themselves to elevate
their own positions
among our “younger
pantheon. Clearly, the
Venusian current (and
that of Jupiter) are
extremely powerful and
determined. They are not
always blatant forward
with their executions,
such as you might find
with the Sun or Mars, but they store mass
amounts of energy for eventual release at
the most “propitious” or favorable times.”
“Ishtar may be invoked to channel energies
directed toward the acquisition of desires. (A
wise one will be certain this is for their
higher good first.) Her number is 15. Colors
are green, yellow-green and white, and her
elements are water and earth.” (Extracted from Liber-W)
“Known to the Egyptians as the “Goddess
of Ten Thousand Names,” the position of
Queenship to Heaven is actually maintained
by one of the younger pantheon in
both Sumerian and the later Chaldeo-
Babylonian systems.” (Liber 50)
“Being the daughter of Nanna and Ningal –
the Sumerian aspects of the Moon – and
the twin to Samas (Shamash), this title of
high esteem is passed onto the young
Lady of the Stars due to her unequaled
beauty and cunning use of divine politics.
In Sumer, she is introduced in the
literature as IN.ANNA [“Lady of Anu”].” (from Sumerian Religion – Liber 50)
“The first presence of Inanna/Ishtar in
Egypt is mentioned in the Edfu text
dealing with the First Pyramid War.
Called there Ashtoreth (her Canaanite
name), she is said to have appeared on
the battlefield among the advancing
forces of Horus… as long as the fighting
was only between the descendants of
Enki, no one saw a particular problem in
having a granddaughter of Enlil around.
But after the victory of Horus, when Seth
occupied lands not his, the situation
changed completely: the Second Pyramid
War pitched the sons and grandchildren
of Enlil against the descendants of Enki.” Zecharia Sitchin Wars of Gods & Men, 1985
Inanna quickly rises to the status of
archetypal goddess on earth. She represents
both the “goddess of love” and the
“goddess of war” simultaneously, giving
her significant domain in the physical
world. Given this, she was favored by the
masses who adored her for her influence.
In spite of her name, she was originally
only given the designation of five, but
replaces the position of fifteen held by
Ninmah (Ninhursag) in the elder pantheon.
She was installed as the primary
goddess in Assyro-Babylonian traditions
with the name I.STAR (or Ishtar) or
“supreme goddess” [as istari is actually an
Akkadian word for “goddess”]. (See Liber-50 or Liber-C)
Assyrian art depicts Inanna-Ishtar with
wings. The same winged form also graces
her Egyptian form as Isis. Clearly she was
a goddess of the aerial world, not only
the “Anunit-(um)” [“Anu's beloved”] but
literally the skies. Seven objects are connected
to Ishtar and her aerial travels.
Similarly, there are seven garments and
ornaments removed during her “descent
to the Underworld.”
The genealogies of Sumer show Inanna as
born into the fourth generation of Anunnaki
gods [daughter of Nanna, born of
Enlil, son of Anu] and is therefore the
great-granddaughter of Anu. She receives
a special place in his heart, which is
surely beneficial in her rise to power, but
more than this, Inanna is a very actively
determined goddess who stops at nothing
to acquire what she deems rightfully
hers. If she wants it, she will take it. In the mythic cycles, this includes “decrees
of heaven,” “decrees of earth,” “secret
names of gods” and everything in between.
These powers she used (quite effectively)
to win the eternal loyalty of mortals in
exchange for granting select worldly
desires. The kings who she favored, she
would stand beside in battle and those
who she did not (or who fell out of favor)
she would lend aid to the opposing side,
showing that the “goddess of love” is not
to be scorned.

Joshua Free (continued): We started publishing our materials not
because we wanted to make a whole
bunch of books but because we felt it necessary
to begin cataloging as time went
on. Originally they weren’t available
to the public at all. For
the first couple of years, if you
weren’t pretty intimately involved,
the you didn’t know that
we were doing it. It has since
expanded considerably, but even
that, you mentioned that there were
twenty or thirty books.
It is important
when people go to look at those that they
pay carefully attention to the descriptions
for the works, because a lot time
what we would do is, during the course of
the year there might be several manifestos
that came out as they were developed
that could be used to work through the
year more easily. So, we would put them
out there, people could use them in the
course of that year’s study and research.
When enough of that had been culminated
we would put out anthologies so that
it would be not only more economical in
a single volume, but it was prestigious for
the people that were working on it to see
this kind of stuff come into manifestation.
(46:30)
Of the thirty titles, there are probably
maybe fifteen or so actual individual
books that I have written over the course
of the years. A lot of them have been put
together to make anthologies which compose
a lot of the other titles. I want to
make sure to say this so when people see
this they are not overwhelmed by the
work we have done.
In answering that too, though,
I’m just now – it should be
available within the week or so
– we’re actually answering a
‘call’ that many people have
put out to produce a monthly periodical;
a magazine; that is dedicated to the work.
This not only helps bring out the new
information and findings easier, but also
to break down what has become volumes
and volumes of information into a synthesis
that people can absorb a little easier.
Also, with our economic age, it can be
difficult to sometimes always go out and
get all of these books, whereas incrementing it in a monthly form, it will really
help bring it to people more accessibly
then we have even before.
And that is
what a division of our group, which from
the publishing company perspective, we
were focusing on the birth of cuneiform
tablets and the language; our focus has
just kind of remained with that: – interpreting
and translating written work and
transferring it in the literary form. I’ve
done YouTube and lectures and workshops
and all of that, but it really comes
back to the writings and the books, whether
our own or clay tablets.
(48:40)
The Judeo-Christian tradition isn’t so
much like that, because you have a few
people that are actually ‘with’ the writings
and then you have enough other
people; parents give it to us, or we go to
Sunday School and so forth. In this day in
age, if you want to get to next step as it
stands right now, it requires a little bit of
an initiative, just because it is not so
commonplace and it is not so present yet
in our world.
This is changing. I mean,
more people are becoming ‘apt’ to this
every day, but still it will require more of
this. In addition to the other books, I
believe amazon has agreed to carry the
magazine as well. So, I believe it will
break it down in an economical and concise
way without always having to dig
into the archives of books. We’re trying
to think of everything and every way that
we can relay it that makes sense.
(50:00)
Royce Holleman: Does your website have membership
attached to it so that it could have
forums people can join and discuss?
Joshua Free: There is a forum. There is a link. In
addition to the website you mentioned,
we also have our library at mardukite.com, so it’s easy to type in and get there.
But, yes, there is a forum. It does require to contact
us, for some of the obvious reasons.
The work we do, is not of course, necessarily
popular among everybody and to
avoid a lot of stuff, it requires someone to
contact us from that page to join, but
there is a link to it from there.
As far as membership. We are not really
about titles and fees and keeping track of
where people live, and all of that kind of
stuff. We do have people that participate
with us and we call them members, but
there aren’t any fees or titles really connected
too much with that…

Joshua Free (continued): By the time of the Babylonians you have
for the first time a magical tradition
among the people; you have people being
able to conduct rituals on their own to
petition the gods using, basically, Marduk’s
usurpation of power. And so you
have a new ‘vision’ of the pantheon. They
are known sometimes as the Seven; it’s
related to the Seven main ‘stages’ or
‘gates’ of the ziggurat in Babylon. There is
a different way of perceiving the world
then there was before. Of course, what
that opens up the door for is further
‘fragmentations’ from that. And so, if it
‘can be done once’, then it ‘can be done
again’, and so for thousands of years
since we’ve seen evolving traditions and
spirituality and ways of viewing things.
Each one in and of themselves – it seems
to valid itself because it uses semantics or
vocabulary to its own system so that it
can make sense – but, all of humanity and
all of civilization in that respect has a
singular unifying source that becomes
evolved from and branched out from the
tree from, and I guess in the time frame
that we have here on earth and what we
are given, it has just made the most sense
to me to go back to that.
So, I don’t really
want to say that verbatim, I am reconstructing
or personally adopting a revival of
the Babylonian or Anunnaki religion as it
once was, but rather ‘reconstructing’
what it actually was and reevaluating
what I believe, what anyone, can perceive
of their reality or beliefs about “religion”
for lack of a better word.
(43:20)
I try to avoid the ‘religion’ topic. We
started the group officially in 2008 as
Mardukite Ministries, and unfortunately
with the use of – we use the ankh and a
lot of, you know, we talk about ‘religion’
a lot – it kind of makes it appear that I
can’t separate between a ‘religion’ and a
‘science’ or a ‘mysticism’ or whatever,
because they are all the same, they are
just different words. “Religion” as a word
raises a lot of flags with people, so I’ve
tried to steer clear of that, but I think it
does validate what people believe about
their own – or that they could have a
better understanding about their own –
perception of religion.
Unfortunately, even just adopting the
term ministries, you mentioned, of course,
the “Ancient Aliens Theory”, and this is
something that’s becoming increasingly
popular because of the recent ‘History
Channel’ show.
Royce Holleman: Yes.
Joshua Free: What actually kept me from being
involved with that show is the adoption
of, for example, the term ministries.
They felt that I run an ‘alien cult’ and
that we are not intellectual in this at all
or pursuing it academically, they think
we just are these ‘religious fanatics’ that
are like ‘let us worship aliens’, and I’m
just like ‘Wow!’, apparently I have not
relayed my message clearly.
Royce: [laughs]
(45:00)
Joshua: It makes me stop to think, is that
not what other people might also being
thinking, which is preventing them from
looking into the work we are doing.
We started publishing our materials not
because we wanted to make a whole
bunch of books but because we felt it necessary
to begin cataloging as time went
on. Originally they weren’t available

New Babylon Rising: Anunnaki, Alien Gods & Spiritual Traditions
A Modern Mardukite Monthly Magazine Book Literary Journal: Issue #2, February 2012
* Secrets of the Anunnaki Sky Gods Revealed on Sumerian Tablets,
* Delomelanicon: The True Story of the Nine Gates of the Kingdom of Shadows,
* Ancient Aliens Theory: What has science in an uproar?,
* Merlyn’s School of Magick & Wizardry continues! Lesson Two inside!
For the first time in modern history, the true origins of Judaic Mysticism (the Kabbalah), Christian spiritual beliefs and other derived practices of ceremonial magic (such as the Enochian system, Hermetics and Golden Dawn methods) can now be traced directly to the archetypal ‘Sky-God’ traditions of the prehistoric Mesopotamians: The post-Sumerian Babylonian “Star-Gate” system dedicated to the Anunnaki.
“First brought to attention by Simon in his edition of
the Necronomicon in 1977, the following passage is
based on the words of Aleister Crowley, one of the
most famous ‘magicians’ of the 20th Century as relayed
by his secretary, the late Kenneth Grant, who until
recently had carried on in Crowley’s stead by leading
an offshoot of the original Hermetic Order of the Golden
Dawn known as the O.T.O. Ordo Templi Orientis.” (Joshua Free, from the preface to Enochian Magic & The Kabbalah)
“Our work is therefore historically authentic; the rediscovery
of the Sumerian tradition, says Crowley. This forms
the crux of Crowley’s system, without which it is both
incomprehensible and unfathomable; incomprehensible in
its magical significance for the present magical revival, and
unfathomable without the key supplied by the Sumerian
tradition…”
~ Kenneth Grant, ‘Magical Revival’
“These groups all claim to have used ‘ceremonial
magic’ based on Enochian Magic and the Kabbalah to
successfully communicate with ‘otherworldly’ beings.
What is most critical for our purposes is that these
beings are the same as those which can be found in
the most ancient accounts concerning Divine and otherworldly
encounters experienced by humans – and
such instances went on to be the basis of the global
systems of religious, mystical, spiritual and political
thought known today in addition to a few unknown
and lost to us forever.” (from the preface)
“Many source books and reprises of well known texts
on the subject of Enochian Magic and the Kabbalah have
already appeared on the ‘market’ and public awareness
that it might seem trite or trivial to make an attempt
to ‘enhance’ this field in any way – but then one
making such an assumption clearly doesn’t know the
Mardukites very well! Having accumulated a solid basis
of human belief and civilization origins, it is quite
simple to re-examine that which followed in an age
when the magic and religion still held a salient
connection as it had in the archetypal systems of
Mesopotamia – in Babylon, Sumer, as well as Egypt.” (Enochian Magic & The Kabbalah)
“In time, the surrounding areas developed and assimilated
the systems of their prior dictators and rulers to
form their own ‘empires’ and ‘dynasties’, all of which
was conducted under the guise of preserving a ‘godgiven’
legacy that extended into prehistory. They all also
share a tradition of mystical spirituality whereby the
select priests and magicians were able to connect with
the energetic ‘source’ of these traditions using a very
‘esoteric’ or ‘hidden’ knowledge that the greater population
was never given privy to. It is these matters
that become our focus now…”
ENOCHIAN MAGIC & THE KABBALAH illustrates the singular origin of the mystical and spiritual traditions on the planet, all directed toward a human relationship with the “Divine”, however that might be viewed — angels, elementals, fairies, gods or other ‘alien’ beings — and more importantly, the methods by which they have been attracted into one’s life.
Prolific writer, Joshua Free, brings together what is known of the ancient “Ladder of Lights”, the BAB.ILI system that constitutes the original “Tree of Life” ‘kabbalah’ found graphically present on ancient renderings and its connections to the later Judeo-Christian traditions and the evolution of human understanding of “Anunnaki”, “Igigi” and other sky-beings into the Hebrew renderings of the “Nephilim”, “Anakim”, “Elohim” and the like.
Since all of our available traditions today seem linked to these antiquated ‘Divine Encounters’, it seems fitting to make a self-honest exploration of the nature of these origins of belief and how they may affect our abilities to perceive the world and affect reality today.
“Unlike what we should expect from a trend driven by
an ‘unfounded’ or ‘artificial’ basis, there continues to
be a rise of interest from those ‘waking up’ from the
sleep granted to them by their predecessors and existing
societal authorities and the ‘contemporary standard’
of “knowledge” generally accessible on the surface
of reality. But, clearly there is something more – and
the human population is gaining an increased understanding
of just exactly what that might mean, and
how the knowledge, standards and ‘paradigms’ of our
immediate ancestors pales in comparison to what was
once accessible to the ancients!” (from Joshua Free’s preface to “Enochian Magic & The Kabbalah: Summoning Angels, Aliens, UFOs & Other Divine Encounters”)
“A new ‘generation’ of ‘truth seekers’ has proven their
own existence and the course of their future path into
the uncovering of the ancient mysteries, the blatant
and outright revelation of what has come before, so
that we can better understand the here and most honestly
direct ourselves into there future; a wonderful
utopian visionary thought – perhaps you have even
heard such things before from others – but there are
no more excuses and so, whether assisted by other figures
on the surface world (or even the underground),
or not, those ‘truth seekers’ who have chosen to remove
the blinders and filtered-glasses to gain a clear
vision of reality and its basis for existence, regardless
of whatever names and labels they may attach to such
a path, are emerging now more strongly then ever
before.”
“Rather than ‘piecemealing’ the myriad of traditions
and systems backward through the ages, a group of
occult initiates banded together sometime in 2006 to
deliberate on the conclusions drawn from the materials
now known as the Book of Elven-Faerie (or Liber-D). Essentially, we were drawn back in time and far removed
from the geographic Celtic regions we were
focused on at the time into a realm that we did not
think that the world was going to properly receive.
The method by which we took our later ‘apprentices’
to this realm involved the most obvious application
that it had earned prior – in the Simon “Necronomicon”. (from the preface)
“Where the Arcanum efforts had brought together a
unique synthesis of the most practical of knowledge I
had earned during my own personal apprenticeships
and mentorships during the 1990′s and from the underground
during the 21st century, I felt that the focus
of the Mardukites should be on the conclusive source
of the what was otherwise available to us – meaning
Mesopotamia and the Anunnaki. While this was by no
means new territory for myself, in order to actually
express it outwardly beyond the small group active at
that time, it required drawing on what the surface
world had at its disposal to comprehend from: this
meant a return to the Simon “Necronomicon” and the
rising interpretive approach to the same mysteries as
“Ancient Aliens theory” (also known as the “Ancient Astronaut
theory”), which had already been pioneered by
such folk as Zecharia Sitchin and Erich von Daniken. But,
even this generation’s approach and interpretations
became fixed throughout the decades that passed and
this still left us wanting more – not just more of the
same, but more!” (from the preface)
“The understanding that we were gaining seemed to be
unique among the community – even a “New Age” one.
The idea that these same forces that appeared to the
ancients and manipulated the original mystical, spiritual,
religious and politically systems – were those that
were connected to magical experiences and divine encounters
through the ages, just made sense to us. And it
was not without basis – not some fantastic belief that
was drawn from some science-fiction wishful thinking.
Certainly not – as the Mardukite Research Organization
is now entering its fourth year public and active,
still growing and drawing out the most antiquated of
mysteries into public view!” (Joshua Free)
“Given that the Mardukite Research Organization has so clearly charted (or re-charted) the ancient mysteries specific to Mesopotamia and the
traditions and systems of the Sumerians and Babylonian
folk existing in pre-Semitic periods over the past four years – it would only
make good sense to move immediately forward from
the Anunnaki-specific paradigm thoroughly documented
in the annals of the Mardukites; into the traditions
and beliefs that were most immediately and strongly
influential in – the Judeo-Christian and otherwise Semitic
forms of mystical spirituality. As I hope to make
clear in the present volume, these elements are a direct
offshoot from what came immediately before it;
that these mystical experiences and divine encounters are
all connected to a singular origin and the means by
which they are ‘affected’ by magicians or priests (in a
systematized form of ‘magic’ or ‘kabbalah’) also have
singular origins, though the ‘clarity’ and ‘semantics’
have all been further obscured as they ‘evolved’.”
“This returns us to the ‘context’ in which the greater
mysteries have been explored most famously since the
Renaissance period of ‘grimoire-sorcery’, and that is by
undertaking workings through a ‘Judeo-Christian’ or
‘Semitic Kabbalistic’ paradigm, all of which have since
been found, in the last century, to be permutations of
more antiquated Chaldean, Assyrian, Akkadian, Babylonian
(Mardukite) or otherwise Sumerian sources!” (from Enochian Magic & The Kabbalah)
“What is being proposed is not necessarily ‘new’ to the
“esoteric” levels of society, but even the message by
our predecessors on the current topics have been too
often missed by the initiates, and better still, we find
very often that the last several decades of archaeological research and development in related fields has
proven critical for the highest comprehension of the
information by this and the ‘next’ generation of seekers;
those finding themselves unsatisfied with the way
in which the worldly paradigm has existed in the past,
stretching their minds and consciousness into finding
a ‘new’ paradigm for the future, one that makes sense,
not simply based on the false hopes and ignorant beliefs
leading an entire aeon that is coming to an end.”
