Earth Mother

The foliage around The Earth Mother demonstrates the many phases of the Goddess. Here the intention is to present the flow of life, from birth--via the young buds--through life, finally ending at death and transformation, as symbolized by the dead branches and snake. The Earth Mother is surrounded by animals, flowers and herbs sacred to the Goddess. The crescent on her brow identifies her not only as the Goddess of the fertile Earth, but also of the ever-changing Moon, symbol of rebirth. The torc encircling her neck is a Celtic symbol of Sovereignty. Size: 7 1/4"h x 7 1/4"w x 2"d
