IN A TIME...LONG, LONG AGO, WATER COVERED THE EARTH; THERE WAS NO LAND. IT WAS A LONG TIME BEFORE MANKIND AND ALL OTHER LIVING THINGS EVOLVED FROM THE PRIMEVAL WATERS. WE NEED WATER TO SURVIVE. IT CAN TRICKLE AS A MOUNTAIN STREAM OR ROAR LIKE THE SOUNDS OF THE OCEAN'S TUMULTUOUS WAVES DURING A RAGING STORM. WE NEED WATER FOR ALL OF FERTILITY...THE LAND, THE CREATURES...AS WELL AS OURSELVES.
THE WATER GODDESS HAVE ALWAYS BEEN THE GUARDIANS OF THE SPRINGS, THE WELLS, AND THE RIVERS. THE GREAT MOTHER IS THE OCEAN. THE WATER GODDESS PROVIDES US WITH WISDOM IN TIMES OF STRESS AND GRIEF OR WHEN WE ARE MOST IN NEED OF COMFORT AND SUPPORT. SHE IS THERE WHEN WE FIND OURSELVES AT THE CROSSROADS, AND SHE CAN REMIND US TO FLOW IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION...TO MARK OUR LIFE STAGES WITH RITUALS. IF WE FEEL AS IF LIFE IS CLOSING IN, AND WE ARE DROWNING, SHE CAN REMIND US THAT THE WATER SUPPORTS US; WE DO NOT NEED TO GO UNDER.
THE "APSARASES "(MOVING WATER) ARE HINDU CELESTIAL NYMPHS WHO CAME FORTH FROM THE WATERS; THEY GIVE SOLACE TO THE DEITIES AND SOULS OF THE DEAD WARRIORS. THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL WITH THE GIFTS OF GRACE AND AND YOUTH...AND PROFICIENT IN THE ART OF DANCING. THEY ARE THE ESSENCE OF WATER AND SYMBOLIZE THE CLOUDS OR THE MISTS...THE NURTURING QUALITIES OF WATER, AND AS WATER, THEY HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THEIR FORMS AND CAN CHANGE THEMSELVES INTO BIRDS OR FISH WHENEVER THEY SEE FIT. THEY GIVE US THE GIFTS OF ENERGY TRANSFORMATION AND NURTURE US.

TUONETAR (pronounced TWOAN-et-ar) is the Finnish Goddess of the underworld. She is the wife of Tuoni, God of the underworld, which is called Tuonela. Her appearance is that of a hag, and her touch could pull a mortal's soul from their body and send it to the underworld. Tuonetar is the mother by Tuoni of a number of other dark Gods and Goddesses, including Loviatar (Goddess of plagues), Kipu-Tytto (Goddess of illness), Kivutar (Goddess of disease), and Vammater (Goddess of pain). In one myth in the "Kalevala", the hero V"ain"am"oinen journeyed to the underworld, and Tuonetar greeted him with a stein of beer in which frogs and worms were swimming. She told him that he would not be allowed to leave the underworld and had him caught in an iron net. V"ain"am"oinen, however, was able to change shape, and he changed himself into a snake and escaped. Tuonetar's name means "queen of the dead."

BELLONA is the Roman Goddess of war and battle. She was worshipped by Roman soldiers and predates the war God Mars. When Mars did become part of the Roman pantheon (as the counterpart of the Greek Ares), he was said to be Bellona's husband or brother. Bellona is usually depicted with her war helmet, armed with a shield and a sword or spear. She had temples dedicated to her worship in Rome, near the temple of Apollo, and in Ostia Antica, which acted as a harbor for Rome. Roman soldiers sailing off to war would stop at her temple and ask Bellona to watch over them and see them safely home.
