Hekate’s Key Journey And The Keys Of Spiritual Journeying

Last updated on: June 11, 2020 at 4:36 pm By Cyndi Brannen

The keys for unlocking the deeper world lie within us. They are our power to disconnect from the everyday world through techniques such as meditation and trance. Spiritual journeying refers to the spending time in this deeper world where Hekate abides with her keys of magick, medicine and mystery. We open the gate to the unconscious through techniques such as meditation and the use of other trance inducing techniques, like breath work and plant spirit medicine. Journeying is a form of ecstatic witchcraft that has been practiced by Hekate's witches throughout the ages. We journey to connect to the sacred within us, through which we return to the Goddess. She awaits. Read more

Hekate: Giver of Keys and Teacher

Last updated on: June 11, 2020 at 4:04 pm By Cyndi Brannen

The further I go on my own journey, and in my study of the different spiritual paths, the common theme is that the true gods desire only for us to experience our wholeness. They don’t want us to feel guilty for how we understand them, nor do they want us to remain stuck in spiritual kindergarten where we act only out of fear. This fear that can freeze us in place is inflicted by the powerful who impose their religion upon us. What the gods of my understanding teach is that wholeness is achieved through embracing our darkness. Moreover, it is through spiritual deathwalking that we are reborn into our wholeness. The light cannot exist without the dark. The shadow and the soul seek integration, neither can be denied. Read more
