Todays class "The Ordinary made into the Extrodanary"
We talked today about the Archatype of the White Goddess. The idea of the woman split into three diffrent identities: The Mother, the Daughter, and the Old Crone.
My theory is everything in literature can be disected into three parts. Remember the riddle? Whats on 4 legs in the morning, 2 legs in the afternoon, and three legs in the evening? Pretty sure I've misquoted a little, but the answer is of course man. Crawling as a baby, walking as an adult, and using a cane to get around in old age.
Isn't that all nice and tidy? The human experiance in three parts?
We can disect men into three parts without much thought, the son, the father, and the wise old man.
My main problem is even though just about anything in the human experiance can be divided into three parts, thats not reality. Language might be the way in which we express reality, but contains blind spots to which we cannot compensate.
