WORDS OF DEVOTION
Prayers and Blessings
A prayer for nourishing flow
Lord Marduk, whom I honour as Enbilulu,
receive this little light of my devotion.
As water reaches the waiting fields,
may care reach the places in my life
that have grown quiet and thirsty.
Help me open a kind and useful way
for wisdom, nourishment and generosity.
May I tend what is entrusted to me,
and share my harvest with a grateful heart.
Let my mind become clear,
my work become fruitful,
and my home be filled with peace.
Modern devotional prayer from Arynn’s Enbilulu chamber prototype.

THE WORDS BEHIND THE WORK
The Gods and Their History
A first reading room. Historical passages and modern devotional interpretations are kept distinct.
Marduk and Babylon
Marduk was honoured as Babylon’s city god. Esagil was a centre of his worship, and Bēl, “Lord,” became a familiar title.
Reading: W. G. Lambert, Babylonian Creation Myths (2013); ORACC, “Marduk.”
Enūma Eliš
The poem tells of Marduk’s rise, his battle with Tiamat, and the ordering of the world. Its praise of his Fifty Names is the foundation of this oracle.
Reading: Lambert (2013), Enūma Eliš, Tablets I–VII.
Mušḫuššu
The dragonlike creature associated with Marduk appears in surviving ancient art, including glazed-brick imagery from Babylon’s Ishtar Gate.
Reading: museum collection records for the Ishtar Gate and Mušḫuššu reliefs.
The Divine Family
The epic names Ea and Damkina as Marduk’s parents. Babylonian worship also honours Ṣarpanitum as his consort and Nabû as their son.
Sources: Enūma Eliš I 78–85; ORACC, “Nabu.”

Ancient Sources, Living Devotion
The deck’s Historical Roots identify ancient passages or another stated source. The invocations, oracle readings, and small rituals are contemporary devotional writing.

THE CREATOR OF THIS SANCTUARY
About Arynn
Music, devotion, and study.
I am Arynn Ayyarynn, a songwriter, vocalist, and oracle reader from Thailand. My work brings together my love of music, ancient history, and devotion to Lord Marduk and the Anunnaki Gods.
The first form of Spoken When on High was a song. Through prayer and study, it grew into a collection of sixty cards and a guidebook.
Ayya Babylon is a place for that creative work to meet: a song to hear, a prayer to speak, a name to contemplate, and history to explore.
Visit Rings the Bel ↗Acknowledgments
With gratitude to the scholars, translators, museum collections, and creative collaborators whose work helps this project take form.
