Despite often being shown or characterized as having a woman's body, goddesses might also take the form of an animal, plant, mountain, water supply, or heavenly object.
The explanations in the below section cover both since it's not always apparent if a tree is only a symbol of a goddess or embodies that deity.
Goddesses may also be linked to abstract concepts like wisdom or wildness in addition to natural items. A deity is often linked to many traits, some of which may seem to conflict, such as goddesses linked to virginity and fertility.
Other frequent correlations include stages of life and certain human activities like weaving and hunting.
