Let’s Talk Goddesses: Hekate

✨Let’s Talk Goddesses ✨

I had to start with Hekate also spelled Hecate.

She is the Greek Goddess of Magic, Witchcraft, Necromancy, Crossroads, and the Moon.

Keeper of the keys!

Her origins are Ancient Greek however It is thought that she could predate Ancient Greece.

Mythology: I won’t get super into the mythology because this will turn into a book but I suggest reading up on it I love her mythology.

In the Homeric Hymn to Demeter She is know for guiding Persephone back from the underworld with her torches.

She helped Zeus and Olympians defeat the Titans he honored her by giving her domaine over the Earth, Sea, & Sky.
