Upright Nude Earth Goddess



Like a little statue sits #sk065 Nude Earth Goddess, by Tree Pruitt.

As above so below, this representation of the Earth Goddess seems to be saying. Sitting natural, nude, and possibly pregnant with all that the world has to offer, She holds Her right hand up in a gesture that represents the spiritual world (as Above) being present in the here and now. Her left hand rests upon the ground to show that spiritual realm present on the planet (so Below). One of the messages this Spiritkeepers Stone has to tell is that we live in a spiritual realm at all times. This pebble figure is painted on dark gray basaltic USA river rock from the Cascade Mountains

* Taweret (Taueret, Taurt, Toeris, Ipy, Ipet, Apet, Opet, Reret) - The Great Female - was the ancient Egyptian goddess of maternity and childbirth, protector of women and children. Like Bes, she was both a fierce demonic fighter as well as a popular deity who guarded the mother and her newborn child. She was depicted as a combination of a crocodile, a pregnant hippopotamus standing on her hind legs with large breasts and a lion. Unlike the composite demoness Ammut, her head and body were that of the hippo, her paws were that of the lion, and her back was the back of a crocodile.
