This is the goddess Nut to me. She is the Sky, covered in stars and planets and on her belly the Tree of Life pattern appears as stars.
The sense of coming full circle is reflected in her movement, her dance. She is fully formed, fully expressed, Earth meeting Heaven.

Wikipedia said:Nut was the goddess of the sky and all heavenly bodies, a symbol of protecting the dead when they enter the after life. According to the Egyptians, during the day, the heavenly bodies—such as the sun and moon—would make their way across her body. Then, at dusk, they would be swallowed, pass through her belly during the night, and be reborn at dawn.[13]
Nut is also the barrier separating the forces of chaos from the ordered cosmos in the world. She was pictured as a woman arched on her toes and fingertips over the earth; her body portrayed as a star-filled sky. Nut’s fingers and toes were believed to touch the four cardinal points or directions of north, south, east, and west.
The sense of coming full circle is reflected in her movement, her dance. She is fully formed, fully expressed, Earth meeting Heaven.
