> Baby/Pregnancy/Menstruation I have the impression that this is less about care and protection as seen in lac-lup; lac-leo and lac-lox-a but more about pregnancy being an imposition as in lac-del.
In the lac-del proving the emphasis seems to be on sexual exploration for fun and perhaps the seeking of a profound connection between the male and female principles. The "fun" part is consistent with the "teen scene" where the appearance of the menstruation may be greeted with relief that there is no pregnancy!
Consideration, also, needs to be given to the fact that a pregnancy during the years when one is getting set in Life (ie school; college; career) may be seen as an inconvenience.
