Zemyna/Zemina/Zemnyele/Semnyele/Sieroji (Lithuanian)
Zemyna was the earth-goddess from which all life came from. Offerings were laid out at the birth of every child. She was responsible for bringing all plant life. Her name means, literally, earth. She is honored every morning and evening with a ritual kiss in the earth.

Zemnya is the daughter of moon god Menulis and the sun goddess Saule. She has 70 sisters, some with special fertility functions and many of which are probably aspects of the 'Earth Mother'
