She waits where the roads divide; torch lit, key in hand, dogs just out of sight. In this episode of Hex & Muse, we meet Hekate: goddess of thresholds, intuition, and the shadowed in-between.From ancient rites and the Greek Magical Papyri to crossroads offerings and moonlit rituals, we trace her path through myth, magic, and media. We explore her role in the Homeric Hymn to Demeter, her ties to Persephone, Circe, and Medea-and how she echoes through Practical Magic, Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, and WandaVision.Whether you’ve known her name for years or only just now felt the pull, this isn’t a history lesson.
