Be most welcome, Batela! I am Urmah-Zu, alias Makarananda, the official trouble-maker on the Gateways to Babylon Board.

Lishtar is the Webmistress of this site. She is also, I am honored to say, a very dear friend of mine. And if she were here, she'd say: Welcome, welcome! Most happy be in our company!

As for the Jungian, intuitive process that Lishtar uses to understand the mysteries: I can't speak for Lishtar, but her method is a great deal wiser and safer than mine of (sometimes inadvertently) acting the myths out in the physical world in real time.

One method you can use to ask any question by oneiric divination is found in Enheduana's NINMESHARA (The Exaltation of Inanna). Let's say you have a question to ask the Goddess. Go to your bedroom, light an appropriate incense in a brazier or incense burner. Make an offering of the incense to the Goddess. As you prepare for sleep, meditate on the question. As you drift off to sleep, breathe deeply of the incense smoke and count the breaths until sleep overtakes you. When you awaken, write down whatever you can recall of your dreams immediately.

Kiagame,
