Venom Use in Mysteries and Medicine
Amazonian / Scythian Hunter Culture
Venom use started in bronze-age midwifery (those women who assist in childbirth) in order to stem bleeding and help dilation
It was discovered that fluids from those women acted as antidotes for poisonous bites.
Those venoms were applied as a medicated slave or ointment (christed)
- for combat (through arrow poisons) and
- for use in both medicine and sacred visionary rites using the Alabastron plunger as applicator
There's meaning behind this ancient concept:

Medea
Medea is the mother of Medicine, and the Mediterranean.
Hecate (her mother) Circe (her sister) and Medea used venoms in their medicines.
- Christian's reframed these people as "witches" using "potions". But it's not that simple.
- We know their roles were as:
- doctors using medicine to heal
- shamans applying pharmakon to their initiates, to induce visions for gnosis and self improvement
- leaders poisoning their enemies
Medea was well known for her curative powers, using those venoms. Celebrated around the region. Formed schools for her priestesses, the Medusae.
The Medwa, Pythian Priestesses, Oracles
Used the venoms in their rites, along with music and poetry (hymns), fumigation, and sex.
Biblical
- Genesis - the "Serpent (ὄφις)" (a Dragon/Drakon - who's a temple guardian) gives Adam "the death inducer", to educate his soul using "death without death".
- Apocalypse
- When read backwards, the Lady Babylon brings the beast, a slang for the theriac (ἰάομαι medicating with Zoe’s water, drugs (φάρμακοι) called kunanthropoi). "The Beast" is slang for the theriac panacea drug based on venoms (and antivenoms). A cure-all antidote, long-life giver, visionary medicine - documented by Galen and given to Nero, Marcus Aurelius, Mithradates. When reading backwards, she medicates everyone with Zoe's life waters.
- See Omega to Alpha - Apocalypse Backwards
- Jesus used the venoms with his apostles and with Mary
- See Mary and Jesus up the Mountain
- See Mark 14-51 Translation from Source where in related writings corroborated by Mark/Mathew/John they applied vinegar (a well known antidote to dipsas venom) to the very dry (symptom of dipsas venom), and comatose (symptom of dipsas is extremely low heart rate), and hanging, Jesus on the cross.
Today
Today we manufacture venom antidotes by using animals.
Same biological mechanism as once was employed in the Bronze Age by Medea and those Scythians.
We give venoms to animals today, and collect their blood serum, distribute it around the world to clinics to use for victims bitten by venomous creatures.
