These days, hearts are heavy and hurting.
AND, more than ever, people are called to Hekate: the goddess of crossroads, the underworld, and ghosts.
This is not a coincidence.
Tough times call for tough goddesses and you can’t find a tougher one than the goddess of the Witches. And, in tough times, people look for sources of healing.
But a goddess of ghosts being a source of healing?
It couldn’t be more natural. <3
Hekate is a Goddess who was, and is, historically known for places of purification, transitions, and connections with “scary” places (whether literal or metaphorical). Few things are scarier than healing after a loss or looking for a treatment to a current condition.
But it’s more than a general association.
Hekate’s lore specifically ties her to healing:
- She carries a dagger, used to cull plants—both toxins that can kill, and also medicines that can heal.
- Through her association with death, she is associated with life
- Because she is associated with destruction, she is also associated with renewal
- Her realms are “The depths of the sea and dark of the earth,” associated with great mysteries, including the mysteries of healing
Healing with Hekate can look like:
- Revisiting and coming to terms with a long-ago injury
- Severing ties with a painful situation
- Putting faith in the unseen (the torchlight in the dark)
Most will find that walking a healing journey with a goddess does not provide an immediate fix. But it is often the start of a beautiful journey.
