Why Maiden, Mother, Crone? These are ancient archetypes, seen in the Triple Goddess and repeated throughout nature: in the waxing, full and waning moon, in the seasons, and in our own cycles. The Maiden represents the young energy of playfulness, discovery and wildness. The Mother represents the caregiver and sustainer, nurturing and creating. The Crone represents elderhood and ancient feminine wisdom. Everyone can embody any or all of these archetypes at any given time in their life, their cycles, their seasons. Which one are you today?
