Often these are linked with Lilith

In paganism, Lilith is seen as a representation of the sacred feminine, a deity that personifies freedom, autonomy and female sexuality. She is venerated as protector of women and guardian of the mysteries of life and death, whose symbols echo her connection to nature, wisdom, and lunar cycles. She embodies the spirit of resistance, empowerment and self-determination. She represents a refusal to fit into restrictive societal norms.

According to Jewish folklore, Lilith was created from the same earth as Adam, making her his equal. However, conflict arose between them when Adam demanded dominance over her. Refusing to be subservient, Lilith left the Garden of Eden, choosing exile over submission.
