Goddess Tawaret

 

Tawaret: Egyptian goddess of protection.

Tawaret guards the Earth from her consort Apep's malevolent influence.

She is a fierce protector of pregnant women and those who are in labor, pushing bad spirits away from the mother and child.

She is depicted as half crocodile, half pregnant hippopotamus, and her name means "She Who Is Great."
