Rediscovering the Maiden in You
The Maiden archetype often gets relegated to a youthful, naïve part of ourselves—a phase we outgrow as we journey into the responsibilities and complexities of adulthood. But as women navigate (peri)menopause(post), we often find ourselve drawn back to their Maiden selves, not as a nostalgic longing for youth, but as a deeper understanding of what she represents.
Embracing the Crone in You.
There comes a moment in every woman's life when the vibrant energy of the Maiden and the nurturing strength of the Mother evolve into something even deeper and richer: the wisdom of the Crone. This archetype, rich with insight and cloaked in mystery, emerges during (peri)menopause(post) as a culmination of the gifts and lessons from the earlier phases of life. From a Jungian perspective, this transition into the Crone phase is not merely a biological or chronological inevitability but a deeply symbolic and transformative process.
