    Mahsa Amini was murdered in cold blood by the Islamic Regime in September 2022. Since then the women of Iran have risen up and led unceasing protests to this very day.

    This has been named the "Woman Life Freedom Movement" and it will go down in history as an uprising spearheaded by the fierce, powerful women of Iran.

    We are showing support for the fearless protesters in Iran with this design made by tattoo artist Wyrdian of Seven Doors Tattoo. The design is based on depictions of Ereshkigal and Anahita, both complex ancient goddesses who dealt with death and war respectively. The lions are symbols that span both western and eastern cultures and unite those of us in the diaspora as well as all who ally with us in this movement.

    We are donating £1 from every sale to the charity IKWRO, which supports Iranian and Middle Eastern women in need in the UK.

    If you have any other charity suggestions that you would like us to consider donating to please send us a message.

    This design is limited to a run of 100

about

The lyrics for this were taken from Elizabeth Payne's transliteration of tablet YBC11381, a Neo-Babylonian musical text in Akkadian on the tuning of a lyre in relation to the nature of the gods.

lyrics

String 1 may Aššur, the king of the gods, improve your dominion for you.

String 2 may Ištar, who created mankind, grant you well-being and longevity.

String 3 may Daragal make you rival the fierce weapon(s and) the raging storm.

String 4 may Enkidu, treat kindly the Lady, the protective spirit who created good things, the lamassu.

String 5 may Damkianna make your appeal, your prayers, and the stroke of your nose always pleasing to the lord of lords.

String 6 may Endašurimma present your artful advice and your precious words daily.

String 7 may Endukuga always let your footstep fall on a prosperous road and a smooth path.

String 8 may Enudtila constantly establish abundance, plenty, and prosperity for the pastures of your people.

String 9 may Enmešarra crush the forces of those who wrong you and of your enemies. May he scatter the weapons of your adversaries.
