Hecate
Hecate, |
Death is something none of us want to deal with but as I recently have found out it eventually visits everyone's door step. Hecate as the Dark Mother offers us solace in our despair.
While I don't have time to do it now I intend to add some information here about setting up a shrine. I had never done much work with the ancestors until about 2 weeks ago when I found myself on a shamanic jouney to what Caitlin Matthews calls the Island of the ancestors. Little did I know that I was visiting there in advance of a death in the family. I should know better than to be surprised by anything that happens, but I realize now that as terrible as the pain of loss is I've been shown the place in the otherworld where I can visit anytime I have a the need for the same love and advice he offered me in this world.
