The Ariadne Instinct in the female wants to belong to a cause with meaning and purpose, and to contribute and be honored for what she, uniquely, among all women—is the only one who could do what she does.
Daughter of King Minos who terrified the Athenians with the Minotaur and his Labyrinth, Ariadne falls in love with the Athenian hero, Theseus and helps him kill the Minotaur with her slender, strong Golden Thread.
This shows how much she believes in him and her teamwork gives him the space to fight and kill then not be lost forever in the maze. The Golden Thread is his emotional connection to her from afar that leads all men back from their work battles to the world of love and home again.
