Kali,
Dark Goddess of India
Destroyer of Old, Bringer of New
Kali Ma is one of the most ancient Hindu Goddesses, and a dark and death
bringing aspect of Parvati or Durga. Her worship predates the Indo-European
conquest in India and the city of Calcutta is named for Her.
She has many myths associated with Her and She appears in many forms ranging
from the erotic to the horrific. She is sometimes seen as the destructive aspect
of the Great Mother Goddess: Maha Maya Ma.
As a personification of Time itself, She sweeps away all that is old and decayed
to make way for the new growth. Dancing on the body of Her lover, Shiva, Kali is
a force unstoppable except by the powers of love and devotion.
Those who can love Kali never need fear death for She banishes all fear and
illusions. Her wild dance is frozen in a moment of Time and turned into a lovely
pendant by Oberon Zell. She can be worn by all who are proud to declare that
they have conquered fear and can embrace the Goddess in Her fiercest form.
This pendant measures 1-¼ inches long by 1 inch wide (not including the loop
and bale) and is available in Nebula, the wonderful new hypoallergenic metal. It
is lightly hand painted with black in contrast to the bright metal, revealing
the exquisite detail of the design.
