Silim Gukin! 𒁲𒄳

(That mean Hello World in Sumerian!)

Welcome to ENiAnKi, my new nature-centered pagan ministry!

My name is Jennifer, but I usually go by Nya. I am an ordained priestess and I started this ministry to fill a gap in the spiritual support landscape for pagans, polytheists, nature worshipers, and all those who follow an Earth-centered spiritual path.

My goals for ENiAnKi are to foster connection to nature, to the gods, and to oneself, as well as between community and individual practice.

I offer a variety of clergy services including officiating wedding and handfasting ceremonies, other types of life-event ceremonies, creating and facilitating rituals for seasonal observances and devotional practices, performing divination, spellwork, home blessings and spiritual cleansings, and more!

I also offer nature connection, mindfulness, and spiritual development programs and workshops. I'm available for events and private sessions.

About Me

In my personal practice, I am deeply devoted to Inanna, the Sumerian goddess of love, war, and a multitude of other things. I have felt a connection to Her since my teens, though I drifted away from spiritual pursuits during my twenties. When I was diagnosed with breast cancer at 32, I once again turned to Inanna for strength and guidance. She helped to guide me back from my own underworld experience of cancer treatments, and as a result I decided to devote my life to Her service.

Part of this service includes serving nature and the greater pagan community. It is my belief that the division between the gods, humanity, and nature is an illusion, and that true spiritual understanding is rooted in the unity of the divine, nature, the community, and the self.

What Does ENiAnKi Mean?

I chose to give my ministry a Sumerian name in honor of my patron deity Inanna and the Sumerian pantheon.

• E means temple in Sumerian.

• Ni can mean a few different things including self or a sense of divine awe, the feeling you get when in the presence of a deity.

• An is heaven and Ki is earth. AnKi can also mean universe.

So ENiAnKi can mean something like “Temple of the self, heaven, and earth” or “Temple of awe of the universe.” I meant for the name to evoke a sense of unity between the seeker, heaven, and earth, as well as a sense of awe of the divine and nature.

Though I am personally devoted to the gods of the Sumerian pantheon, I am committed to helping my clients to connect to the divine within whatever framework feels most authentic to their own personal spiritual journey. Whether you are a polytheist, pantheist, something else, or are still exploring different paths, I can help you in your journey to greater spiritual fulfillment.

I am excited to work with you to meet your spiritual needs! If there is anything I can help you with, don't hesitate to reach out!
