The portal between the high priestess and the empress.

Represented through the multiple forms of the maiden, mother, and crone as both a process and as intergenerational relationships.
Grandmother, mother, and daughter are linked through genetics and patterns of trauma and resilience, impacting how each walks through the world. Threads of support and love are woven through the generations, as are anger, disappointment, and varying freedom of self expression: patterns which evolve with each generation.
