Pregnant Goddess
👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻 ALL INFORMATION CLICK HERE 👈🏻👈🏻👈🏻
Fertility Goddesses represent one of the main aspects of the Mother Archetype.
Archaeological finds of the earliest Goddesses, from around the world, show her as the Great Mother Goddess and creator. This is illustrated by her large breasts and a swollen Belly.
In this form the Goddess represents fertility of both people and the land upon which they lived.
Later in history the fertility Goddesses embody the fertile nature of the earth itself, these female archetypes are also usually mothers of other deities and so seen as patrons of motherhood.
Over time Goddesses become increasingly differentiated, representing a multitude of different aspects of the female and the natural world.
The fertility Godd esses listed below are linked to the
various aspects of the mother. Some are
grain or Earth Goddesses; others represent fertility, pregnancy and
childbirth.
You will also discover
several moon Goddesses since the phases of the the moon are linked to a woman's menstrual
cycle. In many tribal societies, even today, women
are at their most fertile at the time of the full moon.

The lists below are by no means exhaustive, whilst researching the lists I have felt both daunted and heartened to see so many beautiful myths of the Mother Goddess, surviving in the modern world. These lists will no doubt grow and be refined as my research continues.
I have split the Goddesses into two main sections. The first deals with fertility and whilst the other section concentrates on the Goddesses associated with pregnancy and childbirth. Many of these Goddesses are associated with both aspects of the mother. I chose to make the distinction to make it easier to find the Goddess you require.
If you want to invoke the fertility Goddesses you can choose to work with a Goddess from the first list. The high-lighted ones provide links to Goddesses I have covered in more detail elsewhere on this site. You can then invoke the Goddess or set up an altar to her in your home or garden asking that your requests may be granted. Many of these Goddesses can also be called upon to promote growth in other areas of your life.
The second list is for those of you who are already pregnant. Call on these Goddesses for a healthy pregnancy and an easy birth.
