goddess, a feminine
Dievs (
God). She may be thought as alternate side of
Dievs (like in
Yin Yang). Other
Latvian goddesses, sometimes all of them, are considered her alternate aspects. Māra may have been also the same goddess as
Lopu māte.She is the patroness of all the feminine duties (children, cattle), patroness of all the economic activities ("God made table, Māra - bread"), even money and markets. Being the alternate side of Dievs, she takes a person's body after their death while Dievs is taking the soul. She is the goddess of land, which is called Māras zeme.
