Keeping Her Keys: At The Crossroads of Modern Life and the Deeper World
Religion & Spirituality:Spirituality
Hekate's history is as complex as our personal experiences of her. From the Neolithic cave of The Great Mother through to the Roman depiction of her as the nefarious Queen of Witches, Hekate has travelled throughout the centuries, leaving a trail of mystery and magic behind her. In this first part, I discuss Hekate's etiology in The Great Mother, through to how the earliest Greek writers portrayed her, in religious and fictional sources, and practices associated with her (notably honoring her through a special supper/ritual on the dark moon), to first-hand records from magical practitioners, to the channeled text where she is understood as World Soul. I end up with how Hekate, and her frequent companion Artemis, were reinvented by the ancient Romans, and how the influence of the various solar god cults (such as Apollo) may have been involved in her transition to a rather nefarious figure.
Throughout the 1500 years of history I cover, there are themes that emerge from the different ways Hekate was understood, such as being associated with the underworld journey, thresholds, magic, misfits, and children (which is often overlooked today).
