As a general rule, if you've found yourself watching this video or another one like it, there's a reason why. Not everyone receives her signs, it's possible to find her yourself, or get her name stuck in your head. If you've got a gut feeling, follow it.

I became curious about Hekate around October of 22 and on the new moon I decided to invoke Her into my life. About thirty minutes after the ritual, something clicked in my head, after years of ignoring it, that I was an alcoholic. After breaking down and weeping, unable to ignore the voice in my head telling me it was time to get help, I realized no other deity in my life has ever pushed themselves in my life like this. That night I had a very vivid dream, not even making it up (I swear on my mother's life), of a shadowy figure standing next to a huge waning moon. I still remember the image, and being in my late thirties I don't remember my dreams often. From there it was one sign after another. I got Keeping Her Keys for Christmas, after it was one of about 7 books I wanted. I didn't even specify I wanted that one the most. The longer I work with her, the more lucky and prosperous I become, and I only feel so connected with Her.

Hekate for me personally is somebody that's always been with me. I was raised Catholic but I was always interested in spirits and magic at such a young age. I've always had a very feminine energy and considered myself a very kind soul. Turns out that the feminine energy is what connected me to her and she protects kind souls. I've also had a dream of a beautiful sunny day sitting at a picnic table across from an older women cloaked in black. We touched hands and from her sleeve a pink snake slithered up my arm and coiled itself around my neck and turned itself into a rose gold necklace. Come to find out she's considered a Goddess of Daemons, guardian spirits. I always took this as a sign of her gifting me a daemon of my own. I'm so ready for this journey! Blessed be the Daughter of Light, our Dark Mother, Balanced and Wise Crone, Hekate!

Likely if we are watching this, Hecate is with us. Of course we are hearing the call at this time as the wise women (or men) who seek understanding of universal truths. I’ve been seeing a lot of crows lately and that made me think of her. Then an older video came into my feed and now this video is a good indication. Crows are more common in October than April. We are facing some dark energies on the global scale at this time. Perfect moment for Hecate to support us :) Thank you for covering this topic and thank you Hecate for your guidance and support. 🖤

Hekate showed herself to me at 4 yrs of age and then contacted me when I was 7 in a lucid dream. I grew up in an abusive home that was also extremely paranormally active. I am 50 now and am only recently putting the pieces together. In the dream I was in front of a temple where a woman told me to hurry and catch small bits of paper that were floating away in water. She had me catch 2. They had symbols on them. For YEARS I have tried to match the symbols to something. 5 days ago I found them. Symbol 1..."Saturate"...Symbol 2..."Home". I instantly understood that she'd been trying to empower a scared child....for 43 yrs. I always turned away from the possibility that I am a Witch. I am also a quadriplegic...self confidence has been forever a struggle. But now...hindsight...all the visions I've had all my life...thank you Hekate. I am taking my power.

Wow...yes. I have loved Her since I can remember. I will be 64 in September. I think you and I probably have a great deal in common regarding childhood experiences. I have always been sensitive to the paranormal - and really, I've always known I was a Witch. Of course, back when I was growing up that simply wasn't an option. I searched many spiritual paths before I finally accepted that the Old Path is the only one for me, and Hekate is the one who has always spoken to me. I am now well and truly a Crone - but in fact, I have always been The Crone. No other aspect of The Goddess has ever called to me or embraced me the way The Crone does. And the more I learn of Hekate, the more I realise why I have always loved her. Blessed Be, Sister! Yes, stand and take your power - it IS yours, and always has been. Hekate will lift you up to claim it. She will enfold you in Her embrace and share Her Wisdom with you. And now, life begins. Bright Blessings! )O(

Hekate came to me in a dream. The room I was in filled with red light and she spoke to me. Ever since I’ve been researching her and I can’t believe the signs she’s been sending me for YEARS. This is my goddess, this is who I’ve been searching for.

This was so interesting. I knew nothing about her when she called me, I just had her name appear in my brain. I ignored her for a year because I just never saw myself as someone who worked with deity, I had no desire to be involved with deity, it wasn't in my spiritual plans. She came knocking again a year later, louder, and I figured what's the worst that can happen? I can see how it feels and opt out if I want. I have never looked back now. Similar to Angie, riding the wave of empowerment and action. I absolutely relate to her being so much about personal power and your own choices. She has, for me, always been of a "you have to do the work, you have to make the hard choices, you have to take responsibility for your life" attitude but she supports and empowers me when I do that.

After almost 18 months with Hekate ... she has a permanent alter in the house, on the front porch and a dedicated deipnon spot near my house. She is a Matriarch, Diety, Goddess. She makes her authority clear! But she offers companionship. If i procrastinate .. she will come back later. Her wisdom is so clear but subtle . I have grown to trust her implicitly. I deeply appreciate her encouragement and lack of judgement she just shows me the path and I have to choose ... my health, my wealth, my choices etc. She will love me either way.

I need to share an undeniable experience which brought me to this video. I took my 13 month old daughter out tonight 10/24 to play at the park, it was dark (8:30pm) and she kept saying over and over a name that sounded just like Hecate which then caused me to repeatedly hear it in my mind over and over. I then noticed many low flying planes that came out of nowhere, which caused me to search the sky and realized there were two very bright planets, the really bright one I wasn’t sure of, but very clearly in my mind I heard and felt “Jupiter”. I had my husband come out to look at the planet and we saw a neighbor who just happened to be out on a walk. Really good, positive vibes with her - my daughter is scared of people but she was ALL smiles. Most importantly, she had two beautiful huskies, I’m not a dog person but the male dog named Delta came up to me, looked in my eyes and I felt SUCH strong connection like I’ve never experienced. I think this was a connection with Hecate. Our sweet neighbor started talking about Pavlov and how she trains her dogs. When I heard Pavlov mentioned in this video shortly after I went inside I *knew* it was a sign, also the fact that Hecate is connected with dogs, and also Jupiter. Too far outside of coincidence, and on the day I asked Hecate to come to my life. ❤️

Definitely a Hekatean connection. How fortunate for you.

That rings so true cause I felt the calling to her for over a year , I didn't jump in but felt drawn and since I been studying her and meditating with her I now see exactly why I am so drawn to her and I am more angry I didn't go into it when I first felt her , she represents everything I do .

I cannot see how Hecate can be perceived as dark or scary. I have great respect for her. Hecate doesn't take nonsense. That's all I can say.

So a friend mentioned this to me. I have had an unnamed Goddess guiding me for years. Calming me when angry/sad/upset/etc. Setting down the correct path when I make bad decision. Had the taste slapped out of my mouth when I strayed. I also seem to get the most insight at night or when outside at night. And sometimes I just get drawn to watch the moon.

I can't even say anything right now. I'm too emotional because she called me home tonight. I'm so grateful to finally know who was calling me for all these years. thank you so so much for this and verifying it even more, that my intuition was right. Ase. 🙏🙏🙏

Yeah I came because I had a strange reaction to someone talking about Hecate. I been using my craft strongly about two years and never have someone talking about a goddess made me cry until yesterday. It was a positive cry and I felt loved. I felt blessed but like I said I never had that feeling before. So I’m going to try and connect with her this weekend. I’m not a overly emotional person.

My first experience with Hekate was in Salem, MA, believe it or not. Her name was dropped on the back of a book and I heard her name again during one of the witch tours there (which I went on for fun) on the same day. I didn't start working with her though until several years later and she's been absolutely wonderful to work with, even when she feels intimidating. It definitely was an adjustment not being able to call her constantly (quite different from who I previous worked with) but I've found I don't need to. She comes back when she's actually needed. Most recently, she showed up while I was at my current workplace, when I was holding myself back from taking the steps I need for a career change. She definitely handed me the keys that day! Who knew a message could come from the back of cereal box and a customer wearing a key charm on their necklace?

I love this Goddess, she has always been there for me even from the moment of me first working with her til now. I always know she is around because I get a sense of comfort and tears of joy. She is so powerful, beautiful, fierce and admirable all at the same time. And she has been answering my prayers. MY husband and I are about to move across the nation into a new home and she has been guiding me every step of the way. I have to say Hekate has been the easiest Goddess to communicate and work with. I do on occasion work with the Celtic Goddess Cerridwen but Hekate is my primary deity along with the Elemental Guardians Earth, Air, Fire, Water and Spirit. Thank you so much for sharing this video. It is always nice to learn from another's experience. -Blessed Be'

I broke down in tears during watching 2 of the previous videos. Honestly I do think there's something moving through me to heal and awaken me.

I never felt called to her, but tonight I gave an offering to her as an apology for a mistake I made that involved and of her children last night. I don’t do ritual well, so I talked to her as I would talk to a normal person. As I did I said, “I know you haven’t called me but I wanted you to know that if you do, I’ll listen.” And I keep hearing, “I was waiting for you to come to me. You are my child.” So I clicked on this video. And it’s like, yeah, this does feel right. I was always afraid of her because she can be fierce when you screw up. But I’m not afraid of her in that way now, just in the past few hours since I did that offering. It’s... odd. Athena and Hera, who I work with most of the time, they just appeared. And I was like, oh. Ok. Aset recently called me. Oh. Ok. And now Hekate is like, well you are my child, you’ve been my child, I was just waiting for you to talk to me.

When you say. Take those Keys! I just got a huge castle key and more coming! I've been focused on over coming fear. I have never felt so much fear and I'm calling on her for guidance.

Hekate came to me after a year of her reaching out. I did some powerful protection magick the night before without her. I wake up the next morning and four railroad ties are on my porch. They were not there the day before. I had another of her followers confirm it was her and I’ve been walking with her since

As a kid, I was always obsessed with old keys, owls, black cats, snakes, and wolves. Like... to this day I have owls all over my damn house. I was building little altars everywhere with leaves tucked under a key with 3 acorns. Even as a tiny thing I always wanted to hold the keys and tuck them away from others in this weirdly secret way. I always thought it was because I liked the movie "Secret Garden" as a kid, which may have been another sign in and of itself. I always thought my interest in the keys and these animals were just average interests. Now that I've been in my practice a few years I'm realizing it's probably something else that's been beckoning me. I'm just diving into my own family ties to Stregheria and Hekate but it's starting to feel more authentic day by day. Thank you so much for posting such amazing videos on this. It is deeply appreciated

Hello and Hail Hekate, thanks for supporting this recorded class, which was never designed to be a widely viewed recording. You can go deeper into Hekate by becoming a member of Covina: The Coven of Hekate members.covinainstitute.com

I had never had a Deity really reach out before- but when I started seeing her symbols and signs, they were almost overwhelming. I wasn't sure how to take it. I kept looking for more and more signs and symbols just to be sure because I was skeptical (due to algorithms and such), but they just kept going. Even now, there is always that tickle of doubt there but she always comes back in to remind me she is there. She is very patient and will wait for the ones she has called to I feel. I am going back to the basics...and doing my shadow work to deconstruct myself because I feel that needs to be done but yes, it was very exciting but very scary to feel her come on so strongly.

She called me and guided me. I am greatful. I dont bother her unless i really need her. I honor her and ask and her as a mother who loves me always provides. And she lives hugs

I grew up in a very strict judeo-christian family (the older members grew up in a branch called 'brethren' which is even stricter), where women had to be submissive, keep quiet, be delicate little wallflowers, and the story of Eve essentially ruining things for Israel was drummed into me. My father was also a textbook narcissist, very aggressive, egotistical, guilt-tripping, and wanted me to both succeed educationally (so I could give him money) yet bow down to his authority at all times. He was very weak, yet demanded respect constantly 'just because'. He handed me over to a pedophile in my teens, who I went to live with abroad for a year while I was passed around and shown off to his circle of male friends like a trophy. I had no female role models growing up except weak submissive women that refused to be independent and instead put up with insults and emotional abuse in return for a roof over their heads. I instinctively knew it was wrong, so I developed a hatred (misogyny) of women and fear/dependence on male attention. My ultimate goal was to find a husband and become a 1950s style housewife. That never happened. Due to my early experiences of relationships, I only attracted very unhealthy partners that never made me happy. I was either used for money or sex, or 'played it safe' by dating men I had no attraction to so that I wouldn't get hurt. I've never had a good relationship. I've also never had a good female friend, as I've never trusted or liked women (since I was taught to hate myself). I don't know how to act as a 'female', as all the traits that give women power were trash-talked when I was young. Last year, at 33, I met someone who I now realise is the younger version of my dad. I formed an incredibly painful codependent attachment to him, after he initially pretended to love me, then he did a 180, turned into a monster and nearly drove me to suicide while also costing me my job. At the same time, my actual dad had taken thousands from me to pay off his second mortgage (when I don't even have a home of my own). Finally this man threw me away like trash and cut all contact and it suddenly hit me how I've allowed men to treat me over the last 35 years and how much power I've given to other people based on the warped values I had growing up. I've wasted 35 years of my life just giving and giving to everyone else and now there's nothing left. No one gave back to me. They just used me and walked away. Breaking ties with this man completely shattered my sense of self and made me question every single aspect of my life. I haven't left the house in months. I've just been analysing everything over and over. The worst of the pain is starting to clear and I'm now in the process of rebuilding everything from scratch, including my beliefs, values, and identity. I wanted to find a community of strong, grounded, women that were not reliant on men but also didn't hate them (which unfortunately I found a lot of), which is what I need to emulate. I also had a neice born this year and I want to be a role model for her so that she is never forced to experience what I went through. I would still like to find a partner, but realise it may never happen and I need to learn to be okay with that and be able to rely on myself. I found paganism by mistake, having only a very shallow introduction to it via TV shows/movies. I'm from Irish/French descent, so it weirdly feels like I'm coming back home after many generations. My mother would have made a brilliant witch, as despite her beliefs being focused on the Bible, she is very gifted when it comes to the natural world (you could stick her on Mars and she'd terraform the planet into a new Eden within a year!). I'm torn between greek and irish streams of paganism. Greek dieties fascinate me, specifically Hecate, but due to my background I've been trying to find an irish equivalent that embodies similar traits. Can anyone suggest a celtic version of Hecate?

The work you've been doing is sacred. You are living life in flow with the goddess. She who cares little for the rules and regulation that men put on her. Allowing the goddess to come to us as she knows we need takes great trust. Sharing your story shows that you have chosen trust over fear. It would have been so easy for you to listen to the shadow saying, "don't trust," yet here you are being vulnerable. I am simply in awe of this. So inspirational. Thank you.

Wow your comment is very much what i have dealt with in the past. I send you love, you will find your light at the end of the tunnel ❤

She came to me in a dream and I had no clue who she was. This was the moment, I knew I was on the right path in my life.

Any Hekate video is wonderful! Thank you for your channel! Blessed Be 🙏

I needed every word spoken in this video ..thank you so very much

I first got called by Hekate in a meditation. I saw an image of a statue facing 3 ways with a snake climbing it. I didn't know what it meant so ignored that. I had heard of Hekate but to be honest hadn't ever thought of working with her. I was working with Goddess Kali (still do). A couple of months later i heard a voice clear as day call my name and say I am Hekate three times. Again my slow self was like huh? 😂 I'm African so a Greek Goddess calling me was very hard to process. Then signs kept coming, finding toads outside my garden, dogs everywhere, Horses riding past. Her signs were everywhere until i thought maybe she's sending me signs?😂😂 I was intimidated at first but I have fully accepted Mother Hekates call. In hindsight i am realizing she's been with me for Years and hadn't realised it.

My daughter had been a witch since she was 14. I was drawn to it but had to undo programming and go with what I knew was true. She was 17 and I finally started the journey at 38. She gave me a huge book on God's, Goddess's, and Dieties. Ngl it was so overwhelming and I didn't feel like I should "pick" them so I never read it. I have always been drawn to keys, cemeteries, and the moon and can always see when people are at a crossroad. My daughter knows this about me and casually mentioned those represent Hecate and I knew, at that moment, she's been there through all the phases of my life. My mother said at 3 I told her "I want that" and pointed to the moon. I've never felt more understood then by her. She's definitely given me courage to live my way without explanation. I'm making an alter room because I want her to have an entire space to herself out of respect but I know she prefers to have a space on my working alter as well. 💜🌒🌕🌘🌿

Thank you both so much for this chat. This is directly pinpointing what I think about Hecate and the fear of her. I appreciate all the knowledge you both give to the subject.

I am hearing her. I wasn't even thinking of her but yes... WE CLICKED. Especially with the transformations and upgrades that I'm going through right now. It's a very unique and nurturing feeling. Nurturing but with a firm hand. I feel like she GETS me and understands WHY I am the way I am. I definitely feel her pulling. It makes me tear up....it's very powerful. 💚

Thank you for this! I was moved to start candle magic for protection about a month ago. I knew it was received by a feminine moon goddess but not which one. It was kinda like she was saying “finally, you’ve been wanting this all your life.” I’m starting to piece everything together 😊

Very similar story. I resumed my candle Magick practice about a month ago, at a crossroads between the old and new self. I literally prayed for all my old wounds to be healed so I could move forward, and burned a black candle at the waning moon. Now it's her day, Nov. 16, nearly the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on Nov. 19, and here I am. A chance encounter with her name today rekindled everything. I'd become enchanted with her 10 years ago, when I first began practicing Magick. I've rescued 2 black female dogs, the first was named Luna, and I love and care for the strange ones, the ones seeking to reconnect to the power within. Everything about me finding her again today is so auspicious. I just returned from market buying flowers and food to leave at the crossroads tonight, which I'll visit with my two rescue dogs including my 2nd black female, Mia 🙏🏽 thank you, Goddess, I am ready... let the witch fire within burn gloriously

Thank you so much! I was literally meditating on who was trying to reach me. All I could think was Hekate,Hekate, Hekate. 💜🖤💜

A few months back my grandmother who raised me passed away. Afterwards I dreamt that she was walking me outside of the house where I lived with her. May just be that I miss my grandmother but one thing that called my attention was that hekate was there pointing at the sky. They’re where this starts forming a specific symbol and is so hard to explain. It was a gathering and my grandmother was walking me to my own wedding. After that dream I seem to slip off into astral projection without trying and get a lot of children visiting in my sleep.

She found me.... Beautiful understanding from her....

Believe it or not she came to me while I was playing sims. I’ve always had a strong attraction to the moon and to spirituality but never thought about working with a deity and while I was playing the game and had to name my character her name came into my head and I thought it was beautiful so I named my sim Hecate (without knowing who she was or what it meant) and finally many years later of ignoring it I decided to look into it and this overwhelming feeling of the sense of “I found you” came across and thinking back to when her name came into my mind I can only believe that’s when she called to me I just wasn’t ready to listen.

I really enjoyed this interview with the two of you. I’m going to be presenting aspects of Hecate in my circle in January so this was really helpful . Bless it be.

This is my public gratitude to goddess Hecate. She fulfill my wish. She is kind and helpful. Hecate Magic Begin Now

It seems a lot of us who were called we're abused as children I believe Hekate has been guiding us all along thank for creating this video beautiful soul keep shining BRIGHT She is within us All💜💜💜🗝⚕♾⚡🐺🌌

She came to me in my dream and I didn’t even know who she was. And she actually scared the heck out of me because I never call onto Dark goddesses. But she likes to visit me in my dreams 🤷🏾‍♀️. I still haven’t accept it the invitation because I don’t know enough yet

Glad I watched this video.

I started seeing Owl images, I received books about dobermans, plushies of dobermans one with a heart that read rescued and loved. I was like what in the world is going on here. After a lot of research I realized It was her calling me! My reaction was fear and lots of other feelings I also received two wooden boxes and had no Idea what for. All of these just came out of nowhere just showing up. But now,ah wow, just wow she is amazing. If you're new to this , be confident that she will teach you and help you herself. That was my experience though. Hail Hekate thank you for everything! 🥰

I’ve been being very strongly called to Hecate lately.... hearing her name repeatedly during meditation. I didn’t know anything about her before this. Thank you so much.... this has been very helpful ♥️🔥

such a great interview with beautiful info...!!! Big Thanx!!

The first time I was introduced to Hekate was 6months ago thru my nonwitchy bff randomly bringing her up in conversation, the very next day on my walk to work at the humane society- I cross the same crossroads that I do everyday except this time there were 3 huge ass crows sitting in the tree and I got that “omen” feeling. Since I left the Catholic Church, worshiping a deity was not something I was interested in, but after 6 months of signs and sync I knew it was meant to be. 🖤 I’m so grateful I dedicated her an alter the last new moon, I’ve never felt this safe and protected since I was a child.

I was given a tarot reading during it I was "The Goddess was trying to get my attention" I tried to discern who it was and after listening to this I'm thinking it was and is Hecate

I was searching answers and I thought it was at a church but I found her, at church and I try my best to always make her proud

I have been at a crossroad for a long time and now that I hear her name and know her background it feels like clarity🌒🌕🌘

So grateful to have found you, and quite thrilled my copy of “Keeping Her Keys” will arrive in the mail this week. The Monday meditation is so very much appreciated. 🙏 I’ll keep an eye out for that crocodile 🤣

This was an amazing conversation! thank you ♥️

I was shocked when I finally realized she was calling to me. I was scrolling through tiktok and someon’s video which had nothing to do with the other stuff on my feed. The thing was soooooo specific, I knew it was an answer to a question I’ve had. I thought I had an affinity with Caradwyn (spelling) I know algorithms and all that, but this was sooooo specific, and the feeling of calm, yeah, not the algorithm. Huge hugs

Thank you for this video. This confirmed what I had felt. Great advice too! Thanks!

So glad I watched this. I had Hekate come to me back in June. It was a little intimidating at first and then I found the Keeping Her Keys book. It's been an eventful few months since then!

Beautiful convo, love the inspirational words. I love the comments too and all of your stories. I’m working to connect to the goddess Hekate and I have seen her during meditation. I’m so grateful to have a strong badass goddess to follow and adore. Blessed be

For as long as I can remember I have felt this longing and searching for something. As a kid I went to youth group and church on Sunday but mostly just because that is what my friends did. I never felt the connection to Christianity. As an adult in my early 40's I started to feel that longing again. I am a mom and was a wife but it wasn't enough. I decided to try a Christian church once again. I went with a friend and once I was seated in the pew and the Pastor started to speak I knew this WAS NOT WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR! A year or two later I met my best friend. He is very Spiritual and practices various crafts. I have dabbled a little here and there but never truly knew where to begin. I enjoy mediation but I have never stuck with it. My friend has been studying Tarot for years but it finally just clicked about a year and a half ago. I have enjoyed his readings that he has done for me. I was very surprised when my life card was revealed to be the High Priestess. I have always wanted to be Spiritual but I just didn't know how to start. One day I had picked my friend up for an appointment and he left a book on Hekate in the car. I was drawn to the book immediately. I read what I could while he was in the appointment. I just felt an instant connection. Again, I didn't know where to even begin. A few months ago I thought maybe Numerology was something that interested me. Just after I learned about my life numbers etc, it just didn't seem to be the right medium for me, I realized that I have always been interested and infatuated by the moon, I have always felt that my moods and emotions were highly influenced by the moon. I decided to get a couple books; Moon Spells and Lunar Abundance. I was pleasantly surprised when the name Hekate appeared! I didn't set out to make a connection between the two it just happened. Now I am trying to find everything I can about Hekate and I am studying the moon phases. I have a thirst for this knowledge and I am hoping to find guidance. I truly in my heart of hearts feel like this is what I have been looking for.

This video made me see some things clearly. I’ve gotten a lot of answers from this video! 😊

So, long short... I did an ego death and met Hekat which I only ever heard in name and realized I've been protected by her beyond my whole life and any information rn would really help. I don't really know much but once been brought to me thus far so any help successful help is and will be carried with honor

The other thing I figured out is her sacrifice of navigating the underworld or the dark for us. I always do my offering around 4am I figure it is like provisions for the end of the night. My way of thanking her for protecting us while we are asleep or whatever. Corney, maybe, but it gives me goose bumps every time! I am a very private person but I assure you she is a good parent! She is a good teacher!

This has been so informative, I keep seeing her name on my tik tok feed and after the 3rd or 4th time i felt like hmm maybe this is a sign to look into her. I am so happy this video found me

🙏🏻 Hail Hekate 🙏🏻

For the longest time whenever I listened to anything mentioning Hekate I would get this overwhelming almost electric feeling. It has been a while since I’ve heard anyone mention her but recently a show I have been watching touched on the topic and the moment I heard her name I burst into tears, they mentioned her again today and I was flooded with this deep motherly reassurance that I am valid. This time the tears were not just because I was overwhelmed but because the joy and sense of belonging I felt was one I have never experienced to that extent before.

❤wow yes i know my truth thankfully I am very self-aware. I love the way you worded that "simple Explanation". Yes I am embracing my inner Devine Femenine, the mother of us and I am so grateful, have been on this Journey a couple years now and the change and transformation that has taken place in my life is like from night to day. This is only the beginning but the fulfillment I feel in my heart already tells me I am on a divinely ordained path to my deepest heart urning becoming reality ❤Goddess Bless May your tourch burn an eternity

I almost cried hearing this. I’ve had Cyndi’s book on my cart for more than a year now. Ignoring the fact that I’ve been called by her, more likely afraid, I almost cried cause everything you’ve discussed makes so much sense. Last night I lit her a candle and left her an offering. It is time.

Thank you for your insight on Hecate. Next journey on for a teacher. I love crows!

Oddly enough I first got the call from Hekate when I was exploring books on witchcraft on Amazon. Her name kept showing up randomly, always with the heading of “What about Hekate?” or “Have you thought about Hekate?” “We think you should read about Hekate”. Then I kept having black stray dogs appear out of nowhere and follow me on my long walks in the park. I had no idea what to think about it but I kept mulling it over to myself and began offering incense to her and saying that I would like to work with her if she thought I was ready and worthy to receive her wisdom. It’s been intense, demanding, but lovely so far.

Hecate rushed in soon after my mother passed. I am just recognizing that I have always been a witch. The night she came to me she said "I have always been with you and always will be". I am the beginning of the Wiccan path and I know she is the Goddess of the crossroads, consort of Hermes but that's pretty much all I know.

So far, I have been blessed with a deeper understanding of Hecate than I had 6 months ago through attending my Wiccan seminary. Hecate weaves in at out of my life at times that I am just starting to understand. Especially during difficult times.

Hecate called me when I was in my first Saturn return. I started reading and doing all sorts of things to welcome her. Many rituals. Statues of her. Incenses. Oils. She is a very challenging mother deity. She is not an easy mother. You don’t make deals with her. Offerings don’t buy her. My second Saturn return was a highly traumatic experience. By this time I was not doing ritual. I was not praying. I was not toning spiritual. At this point my life is the ritual. I don’t need the props. I am crone. I am the power. I have a black female dog. We walk the forest without fear. We tune out the world. We embrace winter and darkness.

I never knew Hecate was in me for long time. Seeing black feathers,black dog,snowy owl in my dream. My real experienced a year a go was Hecate black dog jumped on my chest when im half sleeping. It woke me up with scared. Now I know it, i have to learn and connect more with her. I started honors her in daily basis.

It randomly popped in my head to do some more research on her the more I read the more I see how much we have in common. So I dk

Ma'am Thank you, you answered me I Love the bful queen Hekate ❤️🙏❤️
