  10. “Thus the Great Goddesses are weavers, in Egypt as in Greece,among the Germanic peoples and the Mayans. And because “reality” is wrought by the Great Weavers, all such activities as plaiting, weaving, and knotting belong to the fate-governing activity of the woman who is a spinner and weaver in her natural aspect.”Eric Neumann The Great Goddess

  11. The Goddess of Fate and Her Relationship to time. “Since she governs growth, the Great Mother is goddess of time. That is why she is a moon goddess, for the moon and the night sky are the visible manifestations of the temporal process in the cosmos, and the moon, not the sun, is the true chronometer of the primordial era. From menstruation, with its supposed relation to the moon, pregnancy, and beyond, the woman is regulated by and dependent on time; so it is she who determines time – to a far greater extent than the male, with his tendency towards the conquest of time, towards timelessness and eternity.” Erich Neumann
