Hecate, the darkness that protects us,
the shadow that conceals us,
guiding us through the darkness.
She instructs with falsehood,
knows the horror of the truth,
shows us the way.
She leads the arrogant astray,
brings the humble home,
takes her chosen to her realm.
She heals with poison,
kills with a glance,
gives voice back to the dead.
She sees your deeds in the past, present, and future,
A dark guardian in the starless abyssal night.
She says, "Contemplate this mystery: in the womb of mothers, time flows backwards, life dominates matter and through matter, defeats death."
