Answer:
1.There was no easy or automatic translation of goddess worship into actual changes for real women. The only thing that can be concluded from this is that divinity could be imagined in a feminine form by the people. We definitely cannot jump to the result that all women enjoyed political power and prestige just because we find evidence of goddess worship in this period.
2. Rig Veda has hymns composed by women and women sages existed: Out of over 1,000 hymns in the Rig Veda, only 12-15 are attributed to women. Clearly, this is not much cause for celebration. What this suggests is that women had limited access to sacred learning.
3. Women also performed sacrifices: Women were allowed to perform sacrifices on behalf of their husbands, but never in their own right. A true marker of political privilege could be if they were the givers or receivers of dana or dakshina (booty from cattle raid). However, they don’t appear to be in such roles.
