Skater314159:
I see Luna being the Maiden in a knowledge/experience sort of way,
in that Luna is still naive about Voldie's power and many things in
the world (look at how she believes in crumple-horned snorckacks...).
I think Ginny is the Mother in a knowledge/experience sort of way in
that since she was possessed by the diary, she now has experienced
Voldie's power and understands what he is capable of. She is no
longer naive, but is becoming "worldly".
Finally, I see Hermione as being the crone in a knowledge/experience
sort of way in that she has much knowledge/wisdom (a key trait of
the crone) about Voldie - some of it gained from books, and some of
it from her experiences with Ron and Harry.
