TARA

Tara as the Goddess of Earth is interconnected with humans, plants, and animals. The word Tara is etymologically rooted in the word "star", but the most popular meaning of "Tara" is "she who saves", or "saviouress". She represents the feminine attributes in all of us and invoking her can help us meditate and achieve a higher state of awareness. Tara protects from the eight inner fears which affect us all: pride, delusion, anger, envy, wrong views, avarice, attachment, and doubt. She also helps us in dealing with inner negative emotions.
