Re: A list of reference material for Hekate research.

To Homer John Keats Standing aloof in giant ignorance, Of thee I hear and of the Cyclades, As one who sits ashore and longs perchance To visit dolphin-coral in deep seas. So thou wast blind;--but then the veil was rent, For Jove uncurtain'd Heaven to let thee live, And Neptune made for thee a spumy ...

Re: A list of reference material for Hekate research.

Still love the cultural expansion, and you sent me down the rabbit hole to learn that she's in more than just Hamlet and MacBeth. Seems like there's an interesting story there, that Shakespeare had an interest in Hekate (Or maybe not if it's Middleton). Is that a strike in favor of Shakespeare bein...

Re: A list of reference material for Hekate research.

Nice addition Mons, love the cultural expansion to the materials. Tho wasn't Hekate incorporated into the Scottish play? Mebbe we could start charging for this thread ... Miller and Grayle are getting $700 a pop. Hell, at $500 we could pay for the hosting and distribute a bit to the contributors. :...

Re: A list of reference material for Hekate research.

I'm putting this here simply because the weird Sisters from the play Hamlet are often listed as an inspiration / source listing for Hekate / Hecate for literature. It doesn't directly focus upon Hekate / Hecate as the goddess herself but focuses upon her more as an inspiration for both a namesake an...

Re: Hekate and Owl's (repost of thread)

One story that ties into the idea of Hekate and Owl's in an general sense is the story of Apuleius The Golden Ass. A few points need to be addressed for clarification. Owls fall within the family of creature's known as Strigidae. This is loosely derived from demons known as a Strix (striges or Strix...

Hekate and Owl's (repost of thread)

Hekate and Owl’s As I search the net and various sites, I often find practitioner’s and devotee’s who have this idea that there is a connection between Hekate and Owl’s. Some suggest that Hekate uses Owl’s as messenger’s, while others suggest that she hold’s Owl’s to be sacred birds. Still others se...

Re: Hekate & Her Mysteries

I've heard that belief before, and the one who told me about it had said that he learned it in Turkey. I don't feel the same way or practice this, but the friend I heard this from was very sincere in his practice and I left him to it. It never resonated with me, but I do tend to have a notable affi...

Re: Strophalos of Hecaté or Hekate's Wheel

I concur, monsnoleedra, though I've found myself wondering how much of that is directly caused by Hekate's manifestations and insights within our respective worlds. She's been strongly present for me and pushing me to explore other avenues of magical practice as a means of coming to understand the ...
