I'm not absolutely sure, so someone might wanna back me up on this.

Shiva is a god. He is the destroyer, but represents life and death It is said he will destroy the earth and then bring it back to life to cleanse the world of its bad deeds). The main reason I say this is because I know Shiva(as well as Vishnu and Brahma) had a wife and each had a certain meaning. To pray to a certain god and his wife was to pray for certain things. To pray to Shiva and his wife Parvati, who represents time and energy, is to pray for health, energy, and long life.
