In most languages moon and sun are respectively feiminine and masculine, with two notable exceptions, German and Japanese. (One may draw what conclusions one will.) The Sumerians had a married couple of lunar deities, Nanna and Ningal, who were parents of the (male) sun. Implications of this are discussed in Chapter 5.

The Thousand Names and their related doctrine surely connect back to this remote and far-flung area but survive fully only in their Sanskrit text."

Jacobsen, T., The Treasures of Darkness p 138. The Anunnaki were lower echelon gods, or earlier dieties frequently diabolised and considered as underworld beings. Jacobsen used the word cow, but beast may be more appropriate to the spirit of the writing. Several languages which derive from Arabic (including Swahili and Setswana) use the same word for cow as for beasts in general.

Campbell, J., The Masks of God: Vol. II: Oriental Mythology p 90 recounts the story of Sekhmet's insatiable appetite for destruction being controlled only when she was tricked into drinking a lake-full of Egyptian beer or wine, and Mandrake, thinking it was human blood, and suffering from possibly the first hangover in history. She was equated with the hot South Wind blowing in from the desert, so has links with the Shulamite of The Song of Songs, (Queen of the South) with Sapientia of Aurora Consurgens, and thus provides a paradigm for the Christian Holy Ghost.

E.g. CW 17 p 181 para 310. "The example of Chrsistianity is perhaps the best illustration of my previous abstract argument. This apparently unique life became a sacred symbol because it is the psychological prototype of the only (sic!) meaningful life, that is, of a life that strives for the individual realization - absolute and unconditional - of its own particular law. Well may we exclaim with Tertullian: anima naturaliter christiana!" We may leave aside for a moment Hillman's argument that " … the soul is naturally Christian because of her uni-personality definition." (Anima p 159) But both Jung and Hillman seem to imply, if not assert, that prior to Christianity, soul did not exist. Both should have been aware of Barbara Hannah's account of the "World-Weary Man" discussing with his Ba-soul in a text dated at about 2,200 BCE. (In Hannah, B., Encounters with the Soul: Active Imagination p 83 ff.) That many Europeans preferred to be unwilling Christians rather than barbecued Pagans does nothing for Jung's assertion. That the removal of compulsion by fire or social ostracism happened to coincide with the decline of Christianity seems only to substantiate the contention that Jung's attitude towards that religion is sentimental.

Sumerian literature frequently makes use of geographical metaphors for psychological events. The 'remobal' of the me from Eridu to Uruk need not imply anything historical or physical: rather it reflects a change in states of mind.
