The Godyssey Podcast<p>Iškar Zaqīqu is an ancient Babylonian text that is equal parts divination and medical texts. Analyzing the dreams of people, it uses past evidence to suggest a root cause for a type of dream, and how to excise bad dreams; good dreams come from gods, bad from demons <a href="https://pagan.plus/tags/WyrdWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WyrdWednesday</span></a></p>
The Godyssey Podcast<p>Despite its fearsome appearance, the Baku is a defender of humanity, feeding on bad dreams and the things that cause them.

And Caoilte made greater complaints than he did before on account of the way he was, till the man at the door bade him to go out and to bring him a drink from the other well.

And no sooner did Finn drink what was in the vessel than his own shape and his appearance came back to him.
