Petals of Innocence

The maiden archetype represents youth, innocence, purity, and the beginning of a journey or transition into adulthood. Often associated with curiosity, naivety, idealism, and a sense of adventure, the maiden archetype embodies the energy of new beginnings and the potential for growth and transformation. The maiden archetype can also suggest a period of awakening or the emergence of one's sense of self. She often transitions into other archetypes, such as the mother or the queen, as her character evolves through life's experiences. The daisy, with its simple beauty and fresh bloom, serves as a fitting symbol for the maiden, reflecting her youthful spirit and the unfolding journey ahead.
