Have you ever been down the crossroads? This week we approach the boundary between the living and the dead to visit Hekate, The Night Queen of Magick and Guardian of Lost Souls. While her association with darkness, magick and the dead is well known, we explore her ancient Phrygian origin, important overlaps with the Goddess Artemis and the mythology of where she gained her dog and polecat companions. In the extended show we discuss the Furies, her likely Ancient Egyptian origins and settle in for a reading of Crowley’s Cry of the 27th Aethyr and associated commentaries about the goddess.
