Hecate, a pre-Olympian Goddess, is a much maligned and misunderstood mythological figure. In fact, Western culture, and the Christian Church in particular, have 'demonised' her and made her into a figure of evil. This guide entry explores the unjust 'trashing' of this archetypal goddess, explaining she is at the very heart of feminine western mysteries. There are inner 'riches' to those offering ritual food at her sacred altar. To deny her presence or abuse her realm is to court ecological disaster - Hecate's punitive aspect. A section on dreaming highlights Hecate's central role in dreamwork, helping facilitate a more imaginative approach to dreams rather than seeing it as a mechanical, reductive process.
This entry is relevant to everyone, irrespective of gender.
Congratulations!
