A nude celestial lady stands in the heavens with a glimmering mantel cradling a moonfaced boy child. Eight stars bear witness to this tender scene. In the Western canon, the Virgin Mary is also known as the Queen of Heaven while in the East, a child in the arms of a Bodhisattva evokes Guanyin as the giver of children.
