Kali

Origin: Hindu mythology

Type: Goddess of Time

Her name meaning, ‘the dark one’, Kali is normally dark blue in color. She has red eyes, wild hair, fangs, and a protruding tongue. In some images, she has four arms: the upper arms carry a sword and a severed head; the lower carries a skull bowl that catches the blood dripping, and a trident.

She is considered one of the kindest goddesses and fights against the forces that threaten harmony.
