The Temple of Hekate

The Temple of Hekate is a vibrant and exciting collection of modern rituals and practices exploring the mysteries of the Goddess Hekate. In this book Tara Sanchez draws together her knowledge of ancient practices and literature, merging it with her personal experiences and ideas. Thoroughly modern, but steeped in history, this is a book of rituals, meditations, divinations, and other techniques through which the listener is invited to explore the magick of this ancient goddess of the crossroads, sorcery, and witchcraft. The listener is introduced to essential practices such as keeping a magickal journal; setting up the altar, ritual purification, and sacred space; preparing incenses; and making a ritual robe; as well as more advanced practices such as ritual gestures, sacred vowels, and dream incubation. Other techniques covered include knot magick and phylacteries, psychic development, and the use of banishing rituals. The exercises in this book present the beginner with everything they need, and the experienced practitioner with a new and fresh perspective. Divination is a very popular area of study amongst those interested in modern witchcraft and magic, and this book presents a unique Hekatean approach to using and interpreting the Major Arcana of the Tarot.
