EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image, Umay, the revered goddess of fertility and Mother Earth in the ancient religion of Tengriism (Tengrism) from Kazakhstan, is depicted with her protective arms encircling a traditional yurt. The yurt symbolizes the home and the nurturing earth, while the baby inside represents the promise of new life and growth. Umay's left hand cradles a baculus, a staff symbolic of her authority and power. Atop the baculus rests a noble bird, a common attribute of the goddess, representing freedom, wisdom, and the connection between the earth and the heavens. The crescent moon graces the sky behind Umay, a reminder of the cyclical nature of life and the night's embrace. Tengriism, an indigenous belief system of the Kazakh people, emphasizes the importance of the sky deity Tengri and the natural elements. Umay, as the goddess of fertility, is a vital aspect of this belief system, ensuring the prosperity of crops, livestock, and human life. Her presence is felt in every aspect of Kazakh culture, from their traditional arts and crafts to their daily lives. This powerful and evocative image showcases the deep connection between the Kazakh people and their revered deities, highlighting the importance of nature, family, and the cycle of life in their rich cultural heritage.
