Hekate's Torches: Exploring The Meaning And Connecting To Her Sacred Flame
There is a light so deep inside of meThat nothing can extinguish.It has burned through a thousand lifetimes, Always leading me back to Hekate's Cave. Christen Bennett (She/Her) - Coven Key Bearer, Coyote Mae (they/them) apGovannon Guide-Key of Lampadia and I sat down for an illuminating conversation about Hekate Lampadios, The Torch Bearer. Perhaps there is no more iconic contemporary symbol of Hekate than her torches. There are several references to Her torches in various ancient texts. In ancient rituals, spells and tales Hekate is seen as lighting the way with her blazing torches. Perhaps the most commonly known is The Homeric Hymn to Demeter where Hekate’s torches light Persephone’s way to and from the underworld. We light up the history, and how we connect to her sacred fire in this spirited discussion. Become a Coven Member with the Kindness subscription: MORE INFO HERE.
