2410 ENT_ZOR_SPENTA_ARMATI aligned_with ENT_GNO_SOPHIA medium Spenta Armaiti ("Holy Devotion" / "Bounteous Piety") is the sole feminine Amesha Spenta — described as the daughter of Ahura Mazda in Yasna 45.4, governing the domains of earth (her physical correlate), piety, and holy devotion. She represents the divine feminine principle within the Zoroastrian divine emanation structure, combining wisdom-as-devotion with earth-mother function. Gnostic Sophia ("Wisdom") is the supreme feminine divine aeon in both Valentinian and Sethian Gnostic cosmologies (Apocryphon of John, NHC II,1; Trimorphic Protennoia, NHC XIII,1): the last of the Pleroma aeons in Valentinianism, whose unsanctioned creative act precipitates material creation; the divine mother figure whose consort/fall is cosmogonically central. The alignment is grounded in their shared status as the feminine divine wisdom/devotion figure within an emanatory divine hierarchy (Ahura Mazda → 6 Amesha Spentas; Supreme Father → 30 aeons). Confidence medium: the parallel is structural/typological; the Gnostic Sophia's role is more cosmogonically catastrophic than Spenta Armaiti's, and the traditions developed independently.
