Enaree

An Enaree (plural Enarei) was a Scythian androgynous or transfeminine priestess and shamans of Artimpasa, conflated with Aphrodite. In modern times, an Enaree may be transfeminine, a eunoukhos, an androgynon, or AMAB transgender worshipper of Artimpasa/Aphrodite.

Etymology

Scythian Shamans

 * "There are many diviners among the Scythians, who divine by means of many willow wands as I will show. They bring great bundles of wands, which they lay on the ground and unfasten, and utter their divinations as they lay the rods down one by one; and while still speaking, they gather up the rods once more and place them together again; this manner of divination is hereditary among them. The Enarees, who are hermaphrodites,* say that Aphrodite gave them the art of divination, which they practise by means of lime-tree bark. They cut this bark into three portions, and prophesy while they braid and unbraid these in their fingers." - Herodotus
 * *Note: in modern times, hermaphrodite is considered a slur.

The Enarei were ancient shamans and diviners, who according to Hippocrates, "attribute the cause of their impotence to a god, and venerate and worship such persons..." and potentially became "impotent" and acted as female constant horseback riding, though this theory is rejected. Throughout his discussion of the Enarei, Hippocrates alleges their condition was "feared" and a "curse," though there is little to no evidence the Scythians viewed it as such.

Instead, the Enarei were important figured believed to have been granted the gift of prophecy by Artimpasa/Aphrodite herself. They were nomadic, famously riding on horseback and divining through cuttings of the linden tree, likely reaching religious ecstasy through use of cannabis. They dressed and acted as women, and potentially even used hormone therapy and self-castrated.

Ancient Hormone Therapy
Perhaps the most famous trait of the Enarei was their purported use of a form of ancient Hormone Replacement Therapy, or HRT.

Hippocrates alleges that they self-sterilized by cutting a vein behind the ear "associated with impotence." On the Internet, it is often stated that they distilled pregnant mare urine and drank it as a form of estrogen--not impossible, as the most widely used estrogen medication, Premarin, is in fact derived from pregnant mare urine. While this is a credible theory, it is not a confirmed fact that they did.
