Great mare goddess.
celtic mythology: selkie
"Peppered throughout Celtic folklore are stories about seal people, also called selkies who are said to be cursed with a constant longing for what they do not have: when they are swimming in the water as seals, they yearn to be on land, and when they walk on two legs as a human, they long to be in the sea. They can transform from one creature to another by shedding their sealskin, and alternatively, putting it on again."

The Evermore Grimoire: Japanese Mythology
Amaterasu Omikami (天照 meaning ‘Shines from Heaven’) was the goddess of the sun, daughter of creator deities Izanagi and Izanami (god and goddess of creation), and central to the Shinto religion in Japanese mythology. Her primary role was that of the sun goddess. In this position, she not only served as the literal rising sun that illuminates all things, but also provided nourishment to all living creatures and marked the orderly movement of day into night. Amaterasu Omikami was also the ‘Queen of Heaven,’ the kami, and creation itself. Though she did not create the universe, she was the goddess of creation, a role she inherited from her father, Izanagi, who defended the world from the land of the dead. The Japanese Imperial Dynasty claims to have descended from her, and this is what gives them the divine right to rule Japan. She is the center of Shinto, and Japanese spiritual life.
