The Evolving Triple Goddess

For she is Artemis or Diana, sister of the sun, a shining Virgin Goddess, then Isis-initiatrix, who brings to man all light and purity, and is the link of his animal soul with his eternal self, and she is Peresphone or Proserpine, a soul of double nature, living half upon the earth and half in hades... and thirdly she is Hecate, a thing altogether of Hell, barren, hideous and malicious, the queen of death and evil witchcraft.

Artemis is unassailable, a being fine and radiant.
Peresephone, the woman in the fulness of life.
Hecate is the crone, the woman past all hope of motherhood, her soul black with envy and hatred of happier mortals.
