Hecate the Goddess of Witchcraft and Magic in Greek Mythology

[@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia]

Would you want to worship Hecate if you were an Ancient Greek? Let us know what you think!

[@WildMen4444]

I already do! Along with the other Gods

[@sbhatti534]

Yes, why not?! :) Though it would be handy if either the Ancient gods broadened their scope in terms of the careers they support or new ones rose to the challenge as those of us working in more modern day professions are left out of the system, without any significant employee assistance.

[@thefanone]

Probably a boss chick easy to follow

[@DragonWaveMaster]

I don't think I was given much of a choice. She is just the best I've found to deal with powerful demons and protect me. And really, she is a very loving Goddess.

[@miranouaihed3860]

She is an incredible Goddess. The fact that she is said to be capable of both evil and good is so beautiful and real to me. Many modern worshippers of hers offer help to the disregarded or unseen by society as a way to honor her. Volunteering at animal shelters, feeding the homeless, donating.. she is incredible ❤️

[@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia]

We agree!

[@malarie6263]

I also worship Hecate. For a couple of years now. I send love and light with everyone. Blessed be my sisters and brothers. ❤

[@night_fallx]

Can you help me out with how and where to start worshipping Hecate? I really want to work with her

Greetings and blessings to all my fellow Hekate worshippers out there! I am glad that i am not the only one here proving that you don't have to be an ancient and long dead Greek to follow her.

[@GeriBee]

After watching this brilliant video, I will never look at the Statue of Liberty in the same way again. Crown, torch, standing as the gateway to NY. Lol wow…

Hail hecate, our mother of witches and our torch bearer. Mother I live in your power and love. Today I will tell people that once again you helped me to keep my head up. You are great mother. Thank you for fulfilling my hearts desire but its not yet over. You need to help me fight my way to my destiny. Mother hecate please receive and accept my offering to you.

I love and worship Hecate I dedicated my life to her decades ago.

[@witchNwand]

As a male witch in my 50s, i worship Hekate in this day and age, and am a devotee. I have an altar dedicated to her in my home, and regularly make offerings to her. To me she is a protective mother figure that i love and deeply respect and is a guide and help in my magick.

[@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia]

Nice! Thanks for watching! 🙂

[@amade1774]

Love the informative outlook on Hecate. Been interested in her and looking for a goddess to devote myself to rather than just the Moon as my Goddess.

[@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia]

Hecate is a great choice! Thanks for watching!

Interesting. Heka is magic in ancient Kemet. Hekata is magic/divination in Bantu. Now this Greek deity.

[@kobalt77]

Wonderful video, lots of great information clearly and thoughtfully presented, thanks you so much .

[@richt63]

Great post 👍 💕 you don't have to be from ancient Greece to worship Hecate. I follow Wicca and I worship Her and through Her other gods and goddesses.

[@barbelo3530]

She's worshipped more now than she was then . That's for sure

[@HawkBit9231]

I recently had a deity reading and Hecate is my deity guiding me in my life changes. I'm honored that she is protecting me.

[@ayeshafazal6174]

amazing content

[@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia]

Thankyou for watching!

[@tokyotrrash]

could you please do a in depth video on Achilles

[@StarlightDreamDolls]

I am another of her followers, and been so for years. She has a great following among neo pagans of today. For anyone looking for more infos or books of Her, I would suggest looking for Avalonia Books who published many, for Keeping Her Keys (blog kept by Cyndi Brannen, a canadian hekatean. She also published a few books) or to just search for the goddess by name, spelling it with a "k" (Hekate) as it is often the spelling used, since many believes it's closer to the "real" or greek (or original) spelling.

[@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia]

Thanks for the recommendations! 🙂

[@alienlance]

I was intrested in Hecate during the wide search of tattoo designs.......when i got the line like goddess of good and bad made me to think alot about her.....

[@palmettosiucra4687]

Hecate is the Greek goddess of magic (witchcraft; sorcery; necromancy), mystical herbs, and poisonous plants. 🎃🎃🎃🎃 Hecate is the goddess that is worshipped by the protagonist Becca (who is a teenage witch) from “Hocus Pocus 2”. The pendant Becca wears is Hecate’s Wheel. #hecate #hocuspocus2 #halloween

[@WorldHistoryEncyclopedia]

We love Hecate. 🙂

It is said that whenever you call on the Triple Goddess, she comes to you. As much as I ignored her, put my faith in lesser gods, signed my name in other books, she still came to me when I needed her most. When I wandered, lost in the Nether Realm, it was she who led me back

I asked a male witch friend of mine where I should start with witchcraft and of course he said go with what's calling to you we he let me just explain what I was feeling in my heart and seeing in my mind I pieced together the name Hecate like I was playing a spiritual game of charades.

Is hecate being depicted in accent Greece as the maiden, mother and crone false? Where did this fact come from?

This came much later from modern paganism, she was mainly depicted as a maiden goddess

Not at all. You can pray to whoever you like. 🙂

​@@WorldHistoryEncyclopediaPray to her as an aspect or a part of The Goddess Divine.She is the aspect of The Goddess that deals with magic,spells,necromancy,conjuring. BUT SHE IS NOT THE GODDESS HERSELF.THERE IS A DIFFERENCE!
