One of the most widely worshipped goddesses in Hinduism, Lakshmi is the eternal consort of the Preserver God Vishnu and within the faith, known by many names. Described in the Mahabharata as born from the churning of the primeval milky ocean, she is the Hindu Goddess of Wealth. The beloved deity also represents good fortune, youth, fertility, prosperity, and beauty.
Lakshmi is furthermore associated with lotuses, which she is often shown holding or standing atop. What’s more, to accompany the many avatars of her husband, Lakshmi has assumed many forms—thus her numerous names. In the Ramayana, she was the chaste Sita. In the Mahabharata, she was Queen Rukmini. Regardless of name or form, though, she is always the beloved wife of Vishnu’s avatars.
Coming to worship, the Shaktism sect regards Lakshmi as the prosperity aspect of the Mother Goddess, while Vaishnavism venerates her as a supreme goddess/consort who assists Vishnu in his creation and protection of the universe.
Together with the important goddesses Saraswati and Parvati, Lakshmi also forms the Tridevi. This triad of Hindu goddesses is described in Shaktism as a manifestation of Adi Parashakti, the divine mother. Alternatively, Adi Parashakti could also be interpreted as the Hindu Supreme Being.
More Avatars/Forms Than Her Husband?
Thanks to religious and cultural syncretization, Lakshmi is not only worshipped by Hindus. In Thailand, she is the household guardian Nang Kwak, beloved for her ability to invite good fortune and attract business. In this form, she is always depicted with a beckoning gesture.
Over in Japan, she is known as Kishijoten, the Goddess of Prosperity. Kishijoten is occasionally regarded as one of the Shichi-Fuku-Jin, i.e., the Seven Gods of Good Fortune.
And in Chinese Buddhism, she is one of the Twenty-Four Protective Deities/Devas, with the name of Jixiang Tiannu. Without surprise, in this form, she is still associated with fortune and prosperity, as well as all things auspicious. (Jixiang literally means auspicious)
Freyja, (Old Norse: “Lady”), most renowned of the Norse goddesses, who was the sister and female counterpart of Freyr and was in charge of love, fertility, battle, and death. Her father was Njörd, the sea god.
Pigs were sacred to her, and she rode a boar with golden bristles. A chariot drawn by cats was another of her vehicles.
It was Freyja’s privilege to choose one-half of the heroes slain in battle for her great hall in the Fólkvangar (the god Odin took the other half to Valhalla). She possessed a famous necklace called Brísinga men, which the trickster god Loki stole and Heimdall, the gods’ watchman, recovered. Greedy and lascivious, Freyja was also credited with the evil act of teaching witchcraft to the Aesir (a tribe of gods).
Like the Egyptian goddess Isis and the Greek Aphrodite, Freyja traveled through the world seeking a lost husband and weeping tears of gold. She was also known by four nicknames—Mardöll, Hörn, Gefn, and Syr.
Abundantia is the Roman personification of abundance and riches, “riches” here referring not just to money but also to luck, harvest, valuables, and intangible success.
So it was believed, the goddess could help grow savings and investments. She could even protect you when you’re making a major purchase.
Historically, though, Abundantia was a Roman embodiment of a condition necessary for a thriving society, rather than an actual mythological figure. Thus, unlike the case of many other Roman deities, she has no older Greek counterpart. (Her image is inspired by Demeter, though).
Within art both ancient and medieval, Abundantia was also often shown with an overflowing cornucopia. In later artworks, she was adorned with sheaves of corn or wheat too.
Such imageries seem to suggest the goddess was more a fertility or agricultural deity. However, and like the case for Plutus and Cernunnos, Abundanita historically appearing on many ancient Roman coinages imply such symbols of plentiful harvest were metaphors for empire wealth/stability. Or at least, the wealth brought to Rome through its military conquests.
Whatever Abdundatia truly represented to the Romans, one thing is for sure. She is one goddess any Roman would welcome into the household.
