Feminine archetypes?

poltr1In an earlier post, I talked about the Jungian masculine archetypes -- lover, warrior, magician, king. I'd imagine that they could map over to their feminine counterparts -- lover, warrior, magician, queen.
I've been trying to wrap my brain around how they'd map into maiden, warrior, mother, crone -- which I remember hearing from a song. (It was probably a filk song. That was the last line of the chorus. Can someone name that tune?)
Or maybe there's a different set of archetypes altogether, one that I have no knowledge of or exposure to.
And it's quite possible that I just can't comprehend this because I have a Y chromosome, among other things. :-P
