Abstract
Pinkola Estes has outlined the pattern of creative life based on the stories of "Crying Woman, the Girl of Matching Games, and the Three Things of Gold", and in these stories he has examined various aspects of the hero's creative behavior. Accordingly, the current study analyzes two groups of Iranian legends in which the heroine is creative. Based on the obtained results, in these two groups of Iranian legends, the last women, who are generally the third, fortieth and hundredth women, are seeking innovation in life and they should be called a wild woman. In Iranian legends, their journey is as follows: Man: Infecting life; marrying the last woman; making statues and dolls and talking with lights; and happy life. Moreover, the action of first women is similar to Persephone (passive and conditional) and the action of last women is similar to Artemis (rival, protestor and seeker), respectively, as they are fighting to change the conditions and ultimately create a new life.
