Storm Goddess of Healing and Transformation. Called the Old Goddess with the Tiger Claws by the Mayas, she is the personification of the torrential seasonal rains, which gush from her water pot. Her hurricanes wash over the Earth and permit new growth, showing us how our emotional fluidity can create new life. The feathered serpent/turtle crown identifies her as matron of fertility, goddess of the moon, and consort to Itzamna (the Sun God). She is the embodiment of power and healing which ancient cultures attributed to wise elder women.
