The Crone

Information for the advanced practitioner

The Crone is the third aspect of the Triple Goddess. She can no longer bear children, and she ceases to bleed with the cycle of the moon. She is symbolized by the waning crescent. She is a wise woman, at the end of her long life. She is a goddess of crossroads, a place that was believed to be where the living and the dead could cross paths. The most well known of Crone Goddesses is Hecate, the Greek Goddess of night. In Egypt, she was called Heket, the Dark Moon Goddess. The Triple Goddess can be seen in the cycle of the moon, and it is here that she ends, to begin again with the Maiden cycle.
