"Fatemeh (in Persian) or Fatima is referred to as the 'Mistress of Women in the World' in Iranian Shiism, and her name 'resplendent' is an attribute of a goddess, or more tangibly, Venus.
A Berber goddess of fertility, protector of all heroes, the Greeks equated her with their Athena. Her symb is the Delta, representing the womb of a pregnant woman, hence her name. A ram's head crowns her, symbizing the agrarian rite of the land. The three angles of the delta and the two horns were later incorporated to create protection against everything, especially the evil eye of the superstitious, giving her the form of a hand, now known as the Hand of Fatima."
