She is the goddess of time, doomsday, and death, or the black goddess (the feminine form of Sanskrit kala, “time-doomsday-death” or “black”). Kali’s iconography, cult, and mythology commonly associate her not only with death but also with sexuality, violence, and, paradoxically, in some later traditions, with motherly love. Kali is most often characterized as black or blue, partially or completely naked, with a long lolling tongue, multiple arms, a skirt or girdle of human arms, a necklace of decapitated heads, and a decapitated head in one of her hands. She is often portrayed standing or dancing on her husband, the god Shiva, who lies prostrate beneath her. Many of those portrayals depict her sticking out her tongue. Since the late 20th century, feminist scholars and writers in the United States have seen Kali as a symbol of feminine empowerment, while members of New Age movements have found theologically and sexually liberating inspiration in her more violent sexual manifestations. https://www.britannica.com/topic/Kali <a href="https://www.patreon.com/bePatron?u=52346760" data-patreon-widget-type="become-patron-button">Support mgoi, Become a Patron!</a><script async src="https://c6.patreon.com/becomePatronButton.bundle.js"></script> <b>Follow mgoi get the latest updates:<b> Instagram [@makinggodsoindia](https://www.instagram.com/makinggodsofindia) Facebook [makinggodsofindia](https://www.facebook.com/makinggodsoindia) Check out [mgoi on YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/c/MakingGodsofIndia) <b> <i>To sell the 'mgoi original' 3D Prints you need to subscribe to my Patreon <i></b>
