Turan, Goddess of Love
Alluring, pure, fascinating and bold, Turan is the love, fertility and femininity goddess of the Etruscan pantheon and also the protector of the ancient city of Velch. The Gallo-Roman Museum in Tongeren, Belgium states that her name in Etruscan means “dove”, while other linguists came to the conclusion that it shares the same indoeuropean of the Ancient Greek word “τύραννος”, standing for “lord”. Nonetheless, two other theories exist: the first one recalls the dominant nuance of Turan’s persona, as the Ancient Greek word for “matron” is the similar sounding noun “δρούνα”; the latter instead focuses more on the Etruscan word “Tan” meaning “moon”, and its nexus with the goddess’ name, as female deities in numerous religions are believed to be bearers of the lunar energy, opposed to the male solar energy. The goddess shares a vast number of similarities with her Roman equivalent, Venus, such as the romantic relationship with the charming Adonis (in Etruscan “Atunis”), and a presumable bonding with the god of war Acun (where the “c” implies an aspiration). Her maidens were called “Lasas” and her spirit animals are pigeons and black swans. The importance given to such goddess is a clear hint to the matriarchal society on which archaic Etruria planted its roots, as even later women will have freedom and privileges (such as the right of landowning and having personal accessories of any type). She is also known as “Turan ati”, meaning “Mother Turan”, similarly to Cybele in Anatolia and Ashtoreth in abrahamic cults.
The song which I think incarnates at best the fascinating, tense, seductive and virginal nature of Turan is “Lovesick” by BANKS, as the rhythm carries a nostalgic and frustrating, yet mystifying and almost monumental verve. It reminds me of a heavenly garden with sakura trees dotted all over, under a menacing crimson sky.
I hope with all my heart you experience the music’s aura.
