Description

Maiden, Mother, and Crone… these are the stages of womanhood we’ve come to know and embody. They represent the spring, summer, and winter, but what about autumn? How have we left this most beautiful season out of the conversation? Enter the Enchantress, also known as the Autumn Queen! This archetype represents women in their mid-forties through their mid-sixties. This is an incredibly rich and fruitful phase of life that should not be overlooked. As we wander through the spring woodland, invite the Enchantress out to play!
