Hekate: Goddess of Witches

Book Review by Buggabeewitch

I’m going to do this in sections, I have so much to cover. TL;DR, I loved this book and highly recommend it to witches interested in Hekate, people who are just beginning or already somewhat on their path with Hekate, or just any witch at all, whether you want to work with Hekate or not, you can still glean much wisdom from this book.

Parts:

Disclaimers and Prefaces

Moon Goddess?

Goddess of Witches or Witches of the Goddess

Thoughts on the Included Rituals and Spells

Shadow Work

Conclusion and Final Thoughts

Part One: Disclaimers and Prefaces

I don’t have anything to disclaim about this book, actually, other than that I picked it up on a whim and didn’t research the author beforehand. I still haven’t researched the author. I’m saying this because if anyone has an information about her in regards to her being a bad person, an appropriator, etc, as many occult authors are, I’m not claiming to defend her of those actions. I’m reviewing the book, not the author. However, if there are any ghosts in her past, bring them to my attention and the attention of others. Such “ghosts” are not always irredeemable, but are important to bear in mind when reading the works of someone who has them in their past.

This section is mostly about disclaimers the author makes, and how I’m so glad she made them!

Weber often times throughout her book references safety as of the utmost importance. She makes sure to mention that when she has done work outdoors or in the dark of night, that she does not go alone, that she does so at crowded times of day.

She makes the distinction between modest discomfort and damaging traumatic experiences, which is important. Discomfort is nothing to shy from, and is vital to confront at times; but this doesn’t mean endangering your physical, emotional, or psychological well-being. That must be avoided and “refused,” as Weber states very clearly.

She makes sure to mention that neo-pagans may refer to Hekate as a triple-goddess, with the maiden/mother/crone (m/m/c) archetype. She does not regard Hekate as such, to my understanding, but does make sure to mention where this very modern idea of Hekate comes from. She is Hekate Triformis, she has some connections with lunar magic, and thus has been syncretised, wrongly, in my opinion, with that m/m/c archetype by modern neo-pagans, namely wiccans.

When Weber discusses how Hekate is referred to as “dark,” and explains how “darkness” is not to be feared or strayed away from, and how those who work in “dark” places or fields are often the kindest and most caring among us, she makes sure to mention her opinion on the use of the terms “dark” and “light,” or “black” and “white” magic. That being that they are not good terms, they don’t describe what you actually mean, and that they have overtly racist origins. A very important note for those beginning in witchcraft who are likely seeing those terms thrown around flippantly by those who either don’t know better, or are just plain racist, or are actively choosing not to confront the problems with those terms. To those of you who come to this news fresh, consider “baneful” and “beneficial” magic instead.

Part Two: Moon Goddess?

My only major gripe with this book is the continual reference to Hekate as “lady of the moon.” I didn’t personally associate Hekate with being of the moon, and actually saw references to her as such as being a red flag for those who syncretise Hekate with that m/m/c archetype. However, Weber backs up her reasons for calling her such. There’s many well-researched and cited sources for her associations with the moon. Weber mentions Hekate’s syncretization with other Greek and Roman goddesses who are more historically and more closely related to the moon (such as Selene and Artemis). Also, she goes into her origin story with Hekate as a moment when she looked up to the moon and said “I’m Yours.” So maybe she associates Hekate with the moon so strongly because Hekate appeared to her in a moment of Epiphania through the moon on that night.

Whether you want to take that as Weber’s “UPG” or as something truly well-founded, is up to you, really. Personally, I won’t be calling Hekate the “lady of the moon” any time soon. But I respect Weber’s choice to do so. I respect that that’s her relationship with Hekate. And honestly, she brings up historical and mythological sources for Hekate’s lunar connections, so while I still wouldn’t call her a “moon goddess,” or a “goddess of the moon,” per se, I would say she has connections to the moon. And therefore, the moon can be a symbol of Hekate. Hope that made sense.

Part Three: Goddess of Wicthes, or Witches of the Goddess?

In Fel the Blithe’s YouTube series on Hekate, Fel raises the question, is Hekate a witch and has Hekate always been associated with witches, or has her association with witches developed over time because of her characteristics, retinue, and attributes (such as crossroads, torches, certain animals, etc) being considered “witchy.” I know I phrased that question poorly, but I hope you can still gather the gist of it.

It’s interesting to ponder that question. It seems to be Weber’s belief that Hekate is the Goddess of Witches (it’s literally the name of the book, after all). I don’t think taking either side makes you more right or wrong, actually, because ancient and modern worship are both equally valid and true. Whether she came to be known as a goddess of witches later or always has been, to me, is unimportant. It’s seems that she’s a “witchy” figure regardless, and therefore can be known as a patroness of witches whether that’s historically founded or not. Whether modern witches have her that title or if she always had it, again, to me, isn’t very important.

In the book, Weber goes into being the Family Witch. She relates Hekate’s family and history to one’s own family and history. She tells how Hekate is well respected, or feared; rejected, or often come to in times of need; how she is often the only one to step up in times of fear or discomfort (see the myth of Persephone’s Abduction, specifically Demeter’s search for her daughter). Does that not sound familiar? Yeah. Sounds a lot like being the only witch in the family, which is a truth many of us live. So whether Hekate was always a patroness of witches or not, it seems, and Weber would certainly argue, that she certainly has all the necessary qualifications for being such now.

Now, I’m still learning about how I feel about that question that Fel raises. I’m not saying that Weber’s belief is correct, or that the opposite is true. I’m saying that it’s important to ponder and that, for a third time, to me, the conclusive answer isn’t of vital importance and it may not exist. Hekate is a goddess of mystery. This is just one mystery of many. Plus, I think it’s just important to ponder it for yourself when you go into reading a book where the author does clearly pick one side of that coin.

Part Four: Thoughts on the Included Rituals and Spells

TL;DR, I loved them. I found them to be incredibly customizable and most importantly accessible. She takes care to mention that you don’t need to follow her words to the tee. She says specifically that her rituals are not a “prescription” but a guide or suggestion. Weber offers both modern and ancient rituals, hymns, and prayers. While historically rites to Hekate were preformed at crossroads at midnight, there’s nothing wrong with doing them during the day in your backyard or in your home. As Hesiod says, and I’m heavily paraphrasing, one who offers little but often is more pious than one who offers much but rarely. Doing the best you can is all the gods of our religion can ask of us! Weber takes care to mention that you shouldn’t put yourself into perilous situations or run yourself into debt in order to offer to the gods. She says specifically to view an offering to a god like an offering to a guest in your home. If all you have is cookies and coffee, then offer cookies and coffee! Sober and/or can’t have alcohol in the house? Offer soda or clean water! Do. Your. Best.

I found her rituals to be helpful especially because she explains the purpose behind what she’s suggesting. She’s not telling you to Do A Thing and then expecting you to understand why. Knowing why she’s offering a certain idea is important because it gives you the tools to adapt that suggestion to your own practice.

One such ritual for protection, she writes to first draw the outline of a dog and to write the names of those you need protected. Dogs are sacred to Hekate, and are well known guardians and companions. If dogs terrify you, or if horses are more your thing, or even cats, then you’re welcome to draw that instead of a dog. Because it’s your practice. What you do is personal, and that’s what makes it special and a powerful bit of magic for you in your life.

Part Five: Shadow Work

Weber does not mention the phrase “shadow work.” She does about twice or thrice mention the word “shadow,” but never the phrase “shadow work.” However, she does describe it. She describes times in her life when she needed to face ugly truths, or when clients of hers needed help confronting their fears or personal ugliness at a metaphorical crossroads. She describes when Hekate appeared as a epiphany in an ugly time to light the way. She describes how it’s important to do things that are modestly uncomfortable, and how some of the most powerful magic comes from an uncomfortable place. She describes how working through your past, confronting the hard parts, and bettering yourself before vowing to help others is important. Doesn’t that sound an awful lot like shadow work?

The way she describes Hekate’s role in these parts of the book makes it seem like Hekate is a great facilitator of shadow work. She’s not going to do the work for you — no, no, no — nobody can do that but yourself. But she describes Hekate as an important guide or helping hand in these times. Shadow work can be hard, it can be scary, but it’s often necessary for self improvement and moving forward in life or even just in your practice. This was a comforting as well as interesting takeaway from the book!

Part Six: Conclusion and Final Thoughts

I loved this book. I have few gripes, like the aforementioned continual reference to Hekate as “lady of the moon,” or the implication that witchcraft is it’s own spirituality or religion rather than a path that can include spirituality or religion, or not.

Weber’s book includes many personal anecdotes, which to some readers may become tiring when you’re here to learn about a goddess and not about a priestess. However, I personally loved the anecdotes. I feel like sharing moments of divine epiphany and other personal stories can show how a deity can impact one’s life in a way something more impersonal just can’t. It’s comforting sometimes to hear from a modern human how a deity can take form, it’s helpful to hear from a modern human how rituals and spells can look in the modern day. So for those reasons, I really didn’t mind those bits.

Again, if you’re interested in Hekate, or in witchcraft, namely in religious or specifically hellenic witchcraft, or in sprits and the dead, this book has something for you. I just finished the book this morning so I haven’t had much time to put any of my new learnings to practice. However, I will report back. That’s a promise.

Thank you for reading! Have a blessed day!

Sincerely,

WHO IS SHE?

Hecate is a Goddess of magic and witchcraft, as well as the guardian of boundaries and crossings. She is often depicted as a triple-headed woman, representing her role as a gatekeeper between realms. Hecate is a powerful and mysterious Goddess, and she is often associated with the moon, the night, and the Underworld. She is also known for her connection to the spirits of the dead, and she is revered as a protector of orphans and wayfarers. As the Goddess of magic and witchcraft, she is also an expert in magic, astrology, and other arcane arts.

In some depictions, she was said to carry a torch, a crescent moon, and a key, which is a symbol of her power over the boundaries between life and death.

Personality: Hecate is a complex and multi-faceted deity, representing the trinity of magic, knowledge and wisdom, as well as the boundaries between life and death. Her personality reflects that complexity and is a combination of contradictory traits, embodying both dark and mysterious aspects, as reflected by her position as Goddess of the Underworld, while also being a bright and benevolent figure, representing light and wisdom. She is often depicted as a three-headed woman, symbolizing her association with the crossroads and the triad of magic that she encapsulates.

• Torches: which represents guidance and illumination in dark times or when clarity is needed.

• Wolves: Hecate is sometimes depicted with three heads, which is one reason she is often associated with wolves. Wolves also symbolize strength, loyalty, and protection and can be a natural source of inspiration for your prayers or rituals.

• Black cats: commonly associated with Hecate, mostly due to her connection to the Underworld. Black cats represent protection and wisdom, and they can be an excellent source of inspiration for your prayers or rituals.

• The triune Goddess: which represents the trio of maiden, mother, and crone and the power of the feminine.

• Crossroads: where people would often seek wisdom from Hecate when they faced difficulties or had questions.

FACTS ABOUT HECATE:

• Name: the name Hecate comes from the Greek word "ekatid," which means "the one who has power over the road."

• Relationships: Hecate is associated with the night, the Underworld, the moon, and the spirit world. She is also connected to Demeter and Persephone, both of whom are associated with the fertility of the cycle of life and death.

• Role: Hecate is a mysterious and powerful Goddess associated with sorcery and magic, often depicted as a triple-headed or triple-bodied figure.

• In comparison to Selene, Goddess of the moon, who represents the calmness of the night, Hecate represents its terrors and darkness.

• She is tightly associated with Eleusinian Mysteries, the secret celebrations of Demeter and Persephone.

• She had a few temples and cults in Greece and small household shrines to ward off evil.

Hekate

There is so much to say about Hekate so I will keep this short and sweet! Hekate is the Queen of the Witches! She is the Goddess of crossroads, witches, necromancy, moon and is a guardian to the underworld and guide to lost souls.

She is often depicted as a triple Goddess, holding a lantern or triple torch and was honored at crossroads, entry-points into cities and at thresholds to sanctuaries. She is often seen with 3 heads or 3 bodies with 3 heads due to her ability to see past, present and future.

Hekate is the Goddess that resides in liminal space. She can easily traverse through the realms of the underworld and physical world.

When should you work with her? When you see yourself at a crossroads and need help choosing a path. Or when you are truly ready to embrace your power.

Some symbols that represent Hekate are:

Triple moon goddess

Dogs (companionship)

Key to the underworld

Torch

Labyrinth Serpent

Athame

Because she is the Queen of the Witches, Hekate loves to have her own altar space in a witches home. You can add anything representing the above symbols, the colors black and red, a cauldron, broom, stars and moons.

You can also give offerings for her. She prefers lavender, pomegranates, eggs, honey, breads, dishes with garlic and sweets. She loves candle flame and incense!

Prayer to Hekate

“When I doubt,

Show me my strength;

When I am wrong,

Show me the right path.

Light the crossroads before me,

So that I may see my way;

Queen of Transitions,

Guardian of doorways;

Hekate bless my journeys,

Through dark and dawn,

Day and dusk.

Help me to bring to balance

The force within myself

Light and dark;

Above and below.

As a coin cannot only have one side,

I am not whole,

One without the other.”

~ 🌷 Positive Affirmations and Reminders! 🌷 ~

- Your craft is on your schedule! You do not have to do things in a specific amount of time. Something that took someone else a week to learn, may take you longer and that is okay!

- Your deities will remain patient and understanding with you as long as you are communicating with them! If you need a break, Tell them. If you do not want to do something or speak to someone, Tell them. Just be respectful and communicate!

- You do not have to do fancy ass rituals every week or whatever. If doing something really simple and basic works for you, Just do it! Rituals can honestly be so draining and tedious!

- You do not have to practice every day! Sometimes life happens and for one reason or another, We can’t/don’t practice every day!

- Trial and error! If something does not work or does not go the way you would like it to, Don’t give up. Figure out what you could change, Apply that knowledge and understanding the next time you do it then see what the results are! Rinse and repeat as many times as you need to!

- Our companions (dogs, cats etc) moods can be affected by energy that is present in our space or by our own energy. If you are having a bad day or something goes wrong in your craft, Be mindful about how it affects your companions. Give them a lot of love and protect them (spiritually) if needed! Our companions can also help with meditation so go to them for extra support if needed! My dog helps me relax and stay positive which helps me meditate because then I can clear my thoughts quicker/easier!

- Take everything you see on TikTok, Discord, Tumblr etc with a pinch of salt. Always fact check and cross reference any information you find on these platforms! Not all creators are harmful but I have seen a fair few promoting things that belong to closed practices, spreading false information, getting their supporters to do spell work/manifestations without consent of others (love spells for example) etc!

- Do not feel bad about not working with entities or deities! For some people, It doesn’t work out for one reason or another and that is nothing to be ashamed of! Do not beat yourself up over it!

Grounding with Hekate

I've always found grounding a useful and meaningful practice. However, as a practicioner of the spirit model of magic, I've never felt purely energy-based techniques work for me as well as for energy workers. This new technique I've devised employs the help of my tutelary deity, Hekate, and proved much more effective for me. As I chose to explain things thoroughly, the instructions are long but don't fret - the rite itself is very simple. While I initially wanted to note that the practice relies on an established relationship with Hekate, she protested and told me she is willing to give that help to anyone who needs it. So - here we go.

Offerings to Hekate

Who is Hekate?

One of the most ancient and powerful goddesses, Hekate is a goddess of Magic, Crossroads, Life and Death and Witchcraft. 

Although she’s very popular with new witches and people starting their Pagan path, she’s often underestimated in power and also pride. Hekate is not evil, or bad by any means, but she is definitely complex, wise, ancient and powerful, and should always be approached with deep respect and a very strong knowledge of oneself. She is not the right goddess to approach if you are feeling unsure or do not have the courage of your own convictions.

Offering ideas for Hekate 

- Personal things (Hekate likes to know you’re serious)

- Black, red, purple candles 

- Dark fruits/vegetables, such as red grapes, black olives, blackberries etc.

- Red wine 

- Crow or raven feathers 

- Dog hair, images of dogs, paw prints etc (especially black or white dogs)

- Animal bones (ONLY ones that have died naturally, or hunted)

- Garlic

- Saffron 

- Oak leaves 

- Wild roses

- Shed snake skin 

Hekate prefers people who are dedicated not only to her, but understanding her message, she will tend to prefer people who have a permanent space for her.
