#0034 | Mesopotamian King of the Heavens

Anu

Anu, the ancient supreme deity of the Mesopotamian pantheon and eldest of the sixteen Celestial Supremes, has watched over the cosmos since the universe's first breath, his divine origins stretching back to creation itself. From his celestial palace connected to the legendary Babylonian hanging gardens, he presides over the heavens with supreme dignity and cosmic authority, his gaze perpetually fixed upon the stars where he reads the intricate patterns of existence. Though he sits upon the celestial supreme council to maintain order and harmony between the world's pantheons, this timeless being remains profoundly contemplative and detached, preferring the company of constellations to the concerns of gods and mortals alike. For all his majestic wisdom and measured serenity, Anu carries the paradox of supreme engagement with cosmic forces yet profound remoteness from those who dwell beneath his celestial realm.
