r/Hekate

Hello, I am familiar with Jason Miller mini grimoire in his course and that of Devin Hunter. Does anyone else know about any other spirit grimoires associated with her? I am really curious!

I've been all over the place with this journey of intuition and trusting myself. I've had many signs throughout my life, but I'm very skeptical and usually end up brushing them off as luck, coincidence, or my brain looking for patterns.

I grew up in a Hindu household, but my mother was Christian, so there were always arguments in my family that eventually made me hate the idea of religion. Regardless of how I grew up, I do believe there is some higher spiritual power that we're not able to comprehend.

Throughout my life, I've also experienced recurring angel numbers, especially during periods when something felt very intense or when I was going through a major change in my life. I've repeatedly noticed certain numbers appearing over and over again, along with other little pieces of symbolism or things that felt like signs. I've never known whether to take these things seriously, though, because I'm very skeptical and always end up telling myself there's probably a logical explanation.

When I was younger, my favorite book series of all time was Percy Jackson. I was never much of a reader, but I reread the entire series probably 2–3 times. Greek mythology was always really interesting to me, even though I never thought much of it beyond that.

There have also been things where I've predicted events or been able to get into this meditative-like state where I just let go, make decisions, and they end up being the right ones.

One example was in high school. We had a multiple-choice computer science test, which was my worst subject, and I had done absolutely no preparation. Somehow, I ended up getting every question correct by choosing intuitively. It was around 20 questions with 4 different choices each. My friends told me the chance of getting everything right without knowing the answers was incredibly low, but I brushed it off as luck.

I had an interest in astrology when I was younger and then stopped believing in it, even though a lot of what I discovered was surprisingly accurate. Again, I blamed it on coincidence.

Around 3–4 years ago, when I was going through some drama in my life, I started getting tarot reading recommendations on YouTube. They would constantly feel incredibly accurate, but I brushed it off as coincidence or the algorithm knowing what I was going through.

Recently, Instagram started showing me palm-reading videos, including one saying that a certain X mark in a specific position on your palm means you're a witch or possess abilities associated with one. Again, I thought it was just the algorithm.

The next day, I went to the gym with my boyfriend. I gave him my phone because women's clothing has no pockets, and he ended up losing it on the train.

He was panicking, but for some reason, I had this feeling in my gut that everything would be okay. I was actually the one trying to calm him down about my own lost phone.

We caught another train that would intersect with the previous train at the same stop. He kept calling my phone, hoping someone would answer, but for about 15 minutes there was no response.

While we were on the train, I looked up at the sky and saw an X-shaped mark formed by some jets. Because of the palm-reading video from the previous day, I immediately took it as a sign, especially seeing how stressed my boyfriend was.

Eventually, he stopped calling and started crying from defeat, apologizing for losing my phone. He had his hands over his eyes and, in that moment, I closed mine and kind of prayed, chanted, or manifested in my head. I kept repeating:

"I have my phone with me."

Immediately after, we got a call from someone who had found my phone.

I still tried to brush it off.

Then came August 12th, the morning of the solar eclipse.

I got a reel on Instagram about Goddess Hecate wanting to work with me, followed immediately by another reel saying that I'm one of her children. I had never heard of her before that day, but again, I thought it was just the algorithm showing me something popular.

I researched her for a little while that morning, and surprisingly, so much about her resonated with me. Her symbolism, character, what she stands for, her signs, the animals associated with her, even her aesthetic.

I've always worn black clothes and have always loved red to the point that my hair is dyed dark red.

It was also my first time actually experiencing a solar eclipse. When I was little, my family would always make me stay inside during eclipses, which obviously makes sense because looking directly at one can permanently damage your eyes.

The following night, around 3 AM, there was a meteor shower where you could supposedly see at least one shooting star every minute until 5 AM. This was my first time experiencing anything like that. I'd never even seen a single shooting star before.

The next day, I felt this weird pull towards learning more about Hecate, so I researched her even more.

That same day, my boyfriend and I were gambling for fun. Nothing crazy, just €50. He chose all the slot machines and lost everything. I then said I'd put in another €50, but this time I'd choose the machines.

I started choosing the ones that called out to me and asked, "Mother Hecate, please guide me."

I'm not even sure why it came so naturally to refer to her as "mother."

I chose the machines that felt like they were calling me, and a lot of them happened to have symbolism associated with Hecate: the number 3, snakes, dogs, frogs, etc.

I ended up winning around €160 in total.

That night, I asked again, "Mother Hecate, please show me a sign in my dream."

I had several dreams, but one stood out to me.

I was in a prayer room with my grandma and grandpa. My grandma passed away a few years ago, and I never had the chance to say goodbye to her. Our relationship was quite rocky, but she always had a special kind of care and protection over me, a bond she didn't really have with anyone else in my family.

In the dream, she blessed me and it felt like she put some kind of protection over me. I'm not completely sure how to describe it. I also hugged her.

My grandma was a very devoted Hindu and probably the most spiritual woman in my family. She was incredibly connected to her religion. Even though I never personally connected with being Hindu, I always appreciated her devotion and belief. I feel like, regardless of what religion it was, the energy she put into her faith made it real to her.

Then, in the dream, she told me that my grandpa had passed away.

I told her that he was still alive, but she kept telling me, "No, he's gone."

When I woke up, I had a really strange feeling in my gut.

About three days later, my dad called me and told me that my grandpa had an accident and had fallen, and that I should call him. He's okay, thankfully, but he has a very large swelling and bruise on his hand.

I'm not sure what to make of all of this.

I've never had dreams about my grandparents before, and the dream only happened after I specifically asked Hecate for a sign.

I also know that I'm probably connecting dots because I'm actively looking for signs, and I'm aware that algorithms, coincidence, confirmation bias, and pattern recognition can explain a lot of these things.

But at the same time, some of these experiences feel incredibly specific and strange, especially the phone situation, the recurring angel numbers and symbolism throughout my life, the dream, and then my grandpa having an accident a few days later.

I'm not trying to convince myself or anyone else that Hecate is actually communicating with me. I'm genuinely unsure.

So I'm wondering: Would you personally take this as a sign? How do you distinguish spiritual intuition from coincidence, confirmation bias, or simply your brain looking for patterns? And if you were in my position, what would you do next?

I’m new to this, and I’ve been spending a lot of time learning. But while I’ve been figuring out how to implement this all into my life, I’ve been curious if there’s a particular time that’s best to call to Hekate. Does it have to be at night under the moon? Can it be anytime? I’m still learning, but this is one of my biggest holdbacks right now. Thank you!

Hi! Baby witch here! I recently booked a practitioner for a working that will involve working with Hekate, and apparently offerings to her are already part of the practitioner's process.

I'm wondering if there's anything I should do on my end to support the working or show my own respect to Hekate? Would it be appropriate for me to make a small offering or prayer myself, or is it better to leave that part to the practitioner since they're the one conducting the ritual?

I guess I just want to build a good relationship with Hekate and show that I'm sincere about my intentions, rather than just expecting her to do something for me. I don't necessarily want to interfere with the practitioner's work either.

I've already asked my practitioner approximately a million questions and I'm starting to feel like I'm annoying them 😭 so I figured I'd ask here instead. 😂

I'd really appreciate advice from people who have experience working with Hekate! What would you recommend a beginner do—or avoid doing—in this situation?

Thank you ver much! ❤️

I've never worked with Hecate before and since dropping the Wicca path I have followed and embraced my witchy side I am finding this a complete difference from past god/goddess work.

So for background, I generally summon and call upon the Egyptian pantheon, so having Hecate answer in my time of need was a shock. I can't go into too many details, but I had a problem with my dogs. I had too many and had been asking anyone I could for help with rehoming. no one would help, even the local animal shelter refused. I ended up in the hospital due to a heart issue and upon release was told not to put my body under and large amounts of stress.

while I was in the hospital my neighbor called animal control and they came out they showed up a couple days after I had gotten home and I figured I could ask them to help with the pups since I had finally had a officer show up. I asked about the ones I needed to rehome and they said they would help. They didn't sadly. they came and took all my dogs, even the dog I had had since 2010 when she was born. they said I could talk with a judge and see if he would allow me to have the ones back. Cliff notes version he sided with them, slapped an animal cruelty charge on me a $4000 restitution along with an order to never have pets again.

The not having pets thing didn't last as i love animals and would never hurt them. A cat my niece had that ran out the house before the purge came back and ive had her since. but when A.C. took my dogs I felt like I was going to die, my chest was hurting and almost had to go back to the hospital...so much for not putting my body under any stress. I sent a call out and prayer for any gods to please answer and help make and set this right. I had never worked with Hecate and was always told to never call on her unless it was a last resort, cause if you call on her and it isn't something legit she will or can punish instead of helping.

As ive gone through everything I spoke to someone on here that said it sounded like Hecate due to 1. dogs being her familiars and her love of them 2. there is a Isis and Ma'at that she can be associated with. I really do believe she is the one that has stepped in to help.

So after all that, the question i have is this: How far will Hecate go if I don't or didnt put any parameters more or less around the help I needed? There are a lot of signs I've had that she is moving along and punishing the people that have wronged me, and I just was curious as to how far her help will go. Personally, as much as I hate to say it or think it Hecate could wipe the facility and people off the map and I'd call it done...just if she did that I'd like the animals to be put of the facility when she does that...I dont hurt animals and could/would never. Even snakes and bugs i refuse to hurt.

I know the facility is on the verge of being closed down due to them not being able to get funding despite the two facilities in the counties on either side of us still getting loads of money. Also recently the new judge that took over the case dismissed it due to lack of evidence of prosecution. So I think its fair to say Hecate is helping. I've given her offerings the last couple weeks as thanks and have sat and thanked her for everything she is doing. I wish she could get my dogs back for me, but at least a small amount of justice and comeuppance is happening.

So again, not really a baby witch, just a witch who is finding their way and wanting to give thanks to Hecate for what she is doing and hopefully can continue. Just wanted to know how far she takes things and should I just let her go?

TIA, I know this is all over the place, just need some guidance.

So recently I started working with Hecate and I can already feel the changes in my life , but also I can feel the need to change my practice I been a witch for 6 years and I feel like what I’m doing is very stagnant and I’m a little lost right now I want to start getting into more baneful and love/glamour magic I was also thinking of Ancient Greek magic I just feel so overwhelmed with what to do I’m kind of lost at a cross roads right now so if anyone could give me some advice , tips or book recommendations to help me out I would really like incorporate her more in my practice and I think this is a perfect time for me to get close and talk with her more but I was just looking for any advice , tips or book recommendations that could help me figure this out .

I heard about Hecate on tiktok... And long story short I woke up at 3 am and I prayed to her for the first time asking her to give me a sign. After that I went back to sleep.

And I had a very vivid and real feeling dream, that maybe 2 or 3 moths were on my eyelids and I couldn't get them off. Do you think this could be her sign? I'm really interested by her and I would love to find out more about her!

Any responses would be rlly valuable
