The "maiden, mother, crone" archetype is not a part of Greek religion or mythology. Replacing it with "nymph" isn't accurate either wink Nymphs aren't deities. They might marry them but they're not them to begin with.

Interesting, though. I don't think I've come across a book on mythology that mentions that sort of archetype. Who wrote it?

I’ll erase this feeling…
I still have a long life don’t I?

I actually borrowed that book from the library a few weeks ago. I don't remember the name though...

I’m missing the feeling…
so this pain is also welcomed!

Oh really! that's interesting. I didn't know he had a book on Greek mythology.

It's probably Leda with the swan. Hera's more often associated with peacocks. Although I suppose it could be.
