A Triple Goddess is any female deity that has three parts. In the most basic form, a Triple Goddess represents the Maiden, the Mother and the Crone.
This is the first in a series of Triple Goddesses and Gods.
Maiden - Mother - Crone
The Maiden is about purity and She represents the innocence of youth.
The Mother is nurturing and protective.
The Crone is very wise and powerful.
Each aspect of a Triple Goddess has its strengths and weaknesses, it is good to know what they are if you plan to work with one.
Hecate
Hecate represents feminism as a wisdom and a power within itself, but not in a sexual sense. She isn't a dainty Goddess, and can be harsh, however. She is a very good Patroness for feminists.
In her maiden aspect she represents new beginnings or points of view.
In her mother aspect she represents nurturing and a motherly protection.
In her crone aspect she represents feminine wisdom and magic at its most powerful.
The Morrigan
The Crow Goddess is a Goddess of battle, strife and fertility.
She is sometimes referred to as a Triple Goddess, but that can actually be debatable.
Sometimes she is seen to have three aspects, and other times she is one of three sisters. Her sisters are the Badb and Macha.
The Greek(Roman) Fates
Known collectively as the Moirae, the Fates are often seen together. It is their responsibility to control certain aspects of everybody's life.
Clotho(Nona) - Clotho spun the threads of fate, She was often called upon during late pregnancy.
Lachesis(Decima) - Lachesis decided the length of one's string of fate.
Atropos(Morta) - Atropos was known to be inflexible, and she was the one who "cut" the threads of one's fate.
The Greek Charites
Also known as the Graces, the Charites were Aglaea (Splendor), Euphrosyne (Mirth), and Thalia (Good Cheer). (Thalia is also the name of a Muse, so don't get those two mixed up.)
The Greek Furies
Also known as the Erinyes, the Furies are three sisters of vengeance. Nearly invincible, they are the "police" of the Gods. They take oaths seriously and are harsh against those who break their vows.
