Triple Goddess-the three who are one.
Maid-who in her innocence and sensual being opens her full self to what ever possibilities lay before her.
Mother-more knowing in the trials and tribulations of life, offers guidance and knowledge while she nurtures her little one in preparation for her flight.
Crone-The wisest of them all, respects and understands the natural order of death and rebirth allows what is inevitable and prepares for it.

Cycles
Kathleen Hughes (2001)
"Cycles is a beautiful return to the Martha Graham archetype aesthetic, masterfully portraying in gorgeous ritual, the triple icons...of the feminine goddess... ".
