For Lady Hekate. 🌑🐍🐕🗝️🗡️🕯️

I don't work with Hekate personally but I think she's one of the coolest goddesses and she's not talked about enough. And with it being October the season of all things spooky, I figured now was a perfect time to talk about and appreciate the goddess of Witchcraft, The Night, The Moon, Ghosts, and Necromancy. She is also the Guardian of the cross roads, doors and portals and with the belief that the veil between worlds gets weaker with the Halloween season the day of in particular it's just another reason this time of year was meant for Hekate. If you haven't you should read all about her and if you have then read some more. She's truly a fascinating goddess.

Lady Hekate I hope you get the worship and love you deserve not just at this time of year but all year long. Much love to you.

World-wandering Hekate, night-loving goddess,

dweller in darkness, bearer of torches, between

the realms you pass with ease, made welcome in each,

made mighty in each. Whenever we move from one

place, one time, one state of being to another,

you are there to comfort us. Whenever we enter

or leave this life, you are there to carry us.

Whenever we are in fear or in need, goddess,

you are there to sustain us. Thrice-blessed Hekate,
