The religious context of the story includes both Catholic and pagan elements: Anne has visions of the Virgin Mary, but sometimes those visions show Mary garbed as a pagan huntress. Anne also becomes involved in the "spiral dance," an ancient Celtic rite that celebrates death and rebirth by mimicking the journey to and from the womb. Having escaped from her Catholic pursuers, Anne realizes that she must fulfill the old crone's predictions. As a result, she travels to the ends of the earth, through the magic land of Faerie and back, gaining new wisdom in the process. 2ff7e9595c
