Goddess Hecate
by Sway H.Cogar
For
my final project I chose Hecate or perhaps she chose me? It’s been a
long journey with her we been through a lot together, but somehow
there’s always more to learn.
If you feel called to this
Goddess I encourage you to learn more. Here’s some bite sized pieces of
information about Goddess Hecate to get you started.
•Her role in magic is that she is the Queen of magic and said to be the first witch.
•She
was traditionally honored and worshiped at night and she takes her
petitions at night and offerings can be left at the crossroads on the
new moon cycle.
•She is the guardian of doorways in Ancient
Greece she at one time was the most important goddess As a household
goddess altars were placed by the entrance of the doorways for
protection.
•She’s the goddess of boundaries and
transformation.She will protect the vulnerable, she will work with your
new beginnings at the new moon and she will bless you with strength
protection and prosperity.
•Her animals she associated with are the owl, horse,dog,frogs and snakes.
•Noumenia is the first sliver of the moon and the best time to worship, and ask for support and starting abundance spells.
• The night of Hecate is November 16th.
•She is a triple goddess. Maiden, Mother, Crone she also can move through time past present and future.

Prayer to Hecate
by Sway
Hecate bless my earth walk,
Through dark and dawn day and dusk.
Help me bring into balance the forces within, Light and dark, above and below.
As a knife can not have only one side,
I am not whole one without the other.
