winter goddess
Cold season divinity
A winter goddess is a deity associated with winter, cold, snow, or the darker half of the year.
Various mythologies feature such figures—Skadi in Norse tradition, Marzanna in Slavic folklore, Khione in Greek myth.
The term appears in fantasy fiction, neo-pagan contexts, and figuratively for women who embody wintry qualities: She ruled the slopes like a winter goddess.
