Maiden, Mother and Crone

I love these images and depictions of the Triple Goddess. A representation of the Maiden, Mother, and Crone. The Triple Goddess is also seen as the waxing, full, and waning moon. It is also associated with feminine energy, mystery and psychic abilities.
The Maiden represents enchantment, inception, expansion, the female principle, the promise of new beginnings, youth, excitement and carefree.

The Mother represents ripeness, fertility, fulfillment, stability, and power. When represented she's often seen with a swollen belly filled with life.


The Crone represents wisdom, repose, and compassion.
Some Maiden Goddesses are Persephone, Brighid, Nimue, among others.
The Mother Goddesses in mythology are Demeter, Aa, Ambika, Ceres, Astarte and Lakshmi.
The Crone can be seen as Hecate, Hel, Maman Brigitte, Oya, Sedna, Skuld, and others.
I've only listed a few here as there are many depending on which Pantheon you follow.
The feminine aspect in whatever form is beautiful and can represent many things to different people. She is the balance to the masculine, the moon to the sun. To me she represents femininity, beauty and the divine of being a Woman.

Completely new!


I've decided to try something new and add Meditation/Prayer beads to my Etsy store. I'm not sure how well they will do, but I love the whole concept and what they can offer to individuals. Here's my first one, it's called Triple Goddess.

The Goddess may be viewed in many aspects and many moods. The Triple Goddess resumes in herself the life stages of maiden, mother and crone detailed in the charm. I've made this using Rainbow Moonstone, Carnelian, Onyx and Sterling Silver. It's small enough to tuck into your pocket or purse, yet carries a wealth of meaning.
