Hekate: Goddess of Witches

This book blends history, witchcraft and personal experience to bring the subject matter to life. This book is a beautiful spell in itself. A must have book if you wish to know and work with Hekate.

As someone that has a fair bit of knowledge on the subject matter here, this book still gave me plenty of food for thought.The book is an amazing introduction for those new to Hekate and also will appeal to advanced readers of the subject as the approach is refreshing and succinct.I haven't even finished the book yet and am compelled to write this due to how amazing this book is.

I have a large collection of books about Hecate, they are all filled with much knowledge and information, but this book by Courtney Weber is “THE CAT’s WHISKERS” in my opinion.Love this book ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Required reading for any Hekatean witch or for anybody looking to learn about such a beautiful mysterious goddess, blessed be.

excellent

I just finished reading this book so while the information is fresh in my mind I want to write this review. First off the book is filled with the writers personal experiences with Hekate, this was a nice touch and makes for a very personal read. There is an excellent section at the beginning of the book all about the history of Hekate and her origins. The writer did leave a few things out that I have discovered about Hekate while doing my own research but not much. She breaks down each chapter into working with Hekate’s different various roles and powers. She allows you a chance to contemplate why this goddess is consider to be a dark goddess and explains very well her various powers & what she rules over. I will note that the writer doesn’t mention enough about Hekate’s dominion over the land sea and sky but instead focuses a lot on her role as mistress of the dead, queen of the crossroads & how she became queen of the witches. Which is fine, but it leaves out some of her other important abilities. The spells in this book are basic at best and I would not even really call them spells, they are more like prayers to Hekate asking for her help in various matters. She does provide some incantations that could be used for spell work but the so called spells are not really spells at all. For this reason I have scored the book 4/5 because of the chosen focuses and missing information. Over all a good read. I will be keeping it and adding it to my collection of Hekate books. But I do believe there are slightly better books on Hekate that readers who want to work with her in a magical way could benefit from more.

Not a bad read, bought out of interest in this goddess, bit heavy for me but lots of insight into her.

This is a good book on the subject of the goddess Hekate, however, from a personal perspective, I found it didn't engage me as some books do.
