Legend
Ishtar, the goddess of war and love, and Tamuz, the god of plants, were lovers in love. But the insidious god of hell was cynical and managed to make Tamuz die from her injuries. In order to pursue her dead lover, Ishtar descends into hell, but if the goddess wants to descend from heaven to hell, every time she descends into heaven and enters a door, she takes off a layer of veil representing the dignity of God and gradually loses her divinity in turn. Ishtar finally passed through the seven gates for her beloved and went to the path of death. When the world lost the god of love, everything declined and was on the verge of extinction. It was only under the pressure of the Lord God that the God of Hell awakened Ishtar and gave her the “Water of Life” as the Lord God had instructed. So the goddess sprinkled the water of life all over her lover …… Tamuz woke up and sang a song of love and beauty
