How would you design a earth goddess who is the chief deity

Just go standard fertility god. You know, ample chest, wide hips, hair full of flowers. Maybe add some regal elements, like crowns and shit.

that's literally wicca.

Make her queen of earth that fought and won a long war against the god of the sky. Bonus points him being her former husband.

The Gods live in a big treehouse and she's the tree mother.

This can be a good thread. Bumpen'

Pele is technically goddess of fire, but she made all the goddamn land in her religion. Queen bitch of the world is an underutilized archetype for earth mothers.

A simple middle-aged old peseantly lady.

You can start with the standard Gaia idea of mother of all creation and all gods, but then make it so she acts like it.

>brutal madwoman
>other gods are products of her chaotic thoughts
>assigns her affections quickly and deeply but withdraws them with equally as random a whim
>nurtures and protects the young but loves seeing adults duke it out gladiator style and often tricks them into doing so
>perfectionist and obsessed with beauty, obsessed with birthing over and over again and slaughtering her children until she finds her one child who is more perfect than even herself
>she sees anyone who reaches out for worlds outside her domain or attempts to escape her capricious hands as a betrayer, and is deeply injured by them rejecting her love
>people who encourage unrestrained growth often find themselves in her favor, whether they are madmen with insane theories, horticulturists, mothers or teachers
>but she constantly tests and punishes those who practice restraint (she sees them as an inhibition in her quest for perfection), or who kill before their victim is at their zenith and has had a chance to flourish into a full-blown concept to be tested
>rare moments of peace and insight occur, and they usually herald worldwide evolutionary shifts
