Umā is the Hindu goddess of fertility, love, beauty, bravery, harmony, marriage, children, and devotion; as well as of divine strength and power - I know what you're thinking, that sounds like a whole LOT! And honestly women do take on and balance a plethora of things all at once and it takes immense strength, mentally and physically. This candle is an ode to the sheer strength it takes to be a woman who have been pregnant, those who have been affected by child loss and those who are pregnant now!
It was very important to me to offer a pregnant body candle whose body is fuller, curvier and bigger to represent those bodies who change in such a fascinating way to carry children, the body that was and still is strong, beautiful and remarkable.
