How do you know when hecate has heard you

I tried to contact hecate last night I made an altar and called all her her titles but I’m not sure if I felt anything in terms of energ change. I asked for a response in my dreams and got none .
How does hecate show up for you when you try?

It has been said that if you call a spirits name 3 times, they will appear.

From what i know in our Greek tradition, Hecate is said that she doesn’t work with everyone… she definitely heard you but she is a goddess who chooses with who will work. So maybe the fact that you didnt feel anything and you didnt have a sign in your dreams means that she doesn’t ‘accept’ you
Or maybe it’s just not the right time yet…

from my experience, you know she accepted you when she comes near you and choke your neck gently. you know its her. I have seen a youtube video years back about a man in India that explained this and it has happened to me.

Lol, I’d get a bit shirty about that one myself, that’s a boundary push that’s not ok with me. It didn’t happen to me so it probably depends on the dynamic between you.

For me she manifested out of ritual and the sense of presence came from the 4 to 5 O’clock position. I still remember where I was standing on the strongest impression. It’s powerful energy and she’s good at communicating.

However I don’t recall if I called her or she came through connected with the working’s of a friend of mine. who was heavily involved with her at the time. She wanted me to give him a message, which I … crap it was 4 years ago I forgot… I think I did one but refused more. I don’t want to be man in the middle knowing the dude was well equipped to hear her himself and already doing so, so that was super sketchy of her and I banished her after that.

You may see signs connected with her symbology, but mostly just pay attention to your energy and how you feel about these things. You will know. Trust your intuition.

Oh ok. That’s makes sense. I will find out what kinds of things can make me more attractive to her

Well I’m glad I didn’t feel choked because if I didn’t know to anticipate that I’d get really scared! :flushed:

Now that we are saying about Εκάτη i would like to say something that happened 10 months ago…
I had a dream of me being in front of a bronze statue that I knew it was hers,showing a woman with a moon :crescent_moon: above her head. I knew she came to me to give me a message but i didn’t realize what it was…
The next day i broke a tooth so much that i had to take it out and put an implant. Much costy and painful…
But days later i found out thst someone attacked me doing a hex on me and she had protected me of having just this small bad incident, as the smallest possible consequence of this hex. I knew who did that to me and why( he was a magician- teacher with who i had lessons about lhp and meditations with and he wanted to sleep with me but i had denied it)

Afterwards i texted him… hi Dimitris how are you? You have greetings from Hecate. Im sure he froze he had also a punishment from her and he never annoyed me again…
Hail Mother Hecate
Χαίρε Μητέρα Εκάτη…:black_heart:

It took her about 3 months to reach out to me via dream after leaving an offering.

In my own experience (after about 6 months working with a Hecatean current and little under 2 months in of actually daring to call myself a devotee):

Hecate takes a lot of devotion and proving yourself to be worthy of her attention for most people, before you’ll even get a noticeable connection. Even then her influence and presence is usually very subtle. You have to do the work to notice and react accordingly. So either she won’t show up because there’s more work to be done first, or it just seems she doesn’t show up because the energy shift is a lot more subtle than you would be used to working with a lot of other spirits. Sometimes though… she gives a hint of her true power and it’ll burn my socks off.

I wrote her a short petition; I was basically asking for her help and guidance on my magickal path and asked her to give me some signs if she agrees. I then burned the paper after reading it aloud. The next day on an online forum I frequent, someone randomly posted a music video by the black metal band Hecate Enthroned, that felt like something. I’m not rushing with her, I just feel that she’s watching me in the background and my job is to be serious about my spiritual and magickal practices at the moment and wait for her.

Hekate was honored above all the other Gods by Zeus after the Titanomachy. She was gifted a portion of control for all the realms and is a psychompomp on occasion. Her station is overshadowed only by Zeus. Zeus even feared her and basically told her she could do whatever she wants. This means she is entirely sovereign. She’s not prone to picking up any old mortal that comes her way. That can make her hard to work with sometimes. It takes time for some people to get to work with her.
