Which would be very inaccurate.
She's far more like an unreachable Great Spirit Mother (in human terms) than an animal mother. She combines Liquid and Action/Spirit, and she may or may not have awoken or gained a third portion, too.
People worship her mainly through her children and other intermediaries, or so Wyrms Footprints suggests.
