The Divine Mother - Goddess of Love, Fertility, and Devotion
Goddess Parvati is the Hindu goddess of fertility, love, beauty, marriage, children, and devotion. She is the daughter of the mountain king Himavat and queen Mena. Parvati is the consort of Lord Shiva and the mother of Ganesha and Kartikeya (Murugan).
She is the reincarnation of Sati, Shiva's first wife. Parvati represents the gentle and nurturing aspect of the divine feminine, while her other forms like Durga and Kali represent her fierce warrior aspects. Together with Lakshmi and Saraswati, she forms the Tridevi.
