In the foundational mythos of Rome, she was the wolf that suckled and raised the twins Romulus and Remus. Romulus becomes the founder and first king of Rome. She is not usually referred to as “wolf mother” though, but simply as the She-Wolf.

The Gokturks had a similar myth of a female wolf nursing a wounded young boy back to health. The boy impregnates the wolf who then gives birth to 10 half-wolf half-human children, one of which becomes the leader of the nomadic tribes.

It’s mythology. There is a lot of that kind of stuff in myths. Bestiality, incest, rape, abuse, patricide, m*urder, they all appear in Greek and Norse mythology, as just two examples. I mean, Loki mated with a stallion, and gave birth to an eight-legged horse called Sleipnir which became Odin’s ride. :man_shrugging:

Hecate is often referred to as She-wolf, or Lykaina, in PGM she’s always adressed as " Your ankle is wolf-shaped*"
In Norse mythology, I think Gullveig is the wolf mother who mothered Fenrir.
I see so much similarities between Hekate and Gullveig, both Goddessess are associated with three dogs or three wolves, being black mothers goddessess, associated with witchcraft and black magick.

Fenrir’s mother is the giantess Angrboda. Gullveig is a witch, and, from what I could gather, isn’t associated with wolves.

She’s gaining a lot of attention lately indeed, I may be biased but it seems to me like she’s among the strongest spirits who bridge so many currents and spirits.
The Goddess Hecate is patroness of lycanthropy and necromancy btw, in possession or after sexual magick you can ask her to infuse you with lupine energy and send her wolves and see how it goes.

i have have several scans and each say she is trying to contact me lol.

I guess this is another attempt with this concept of the wolf mother.

I seem to get alot of notice from dark mother goddess figures

Go for it man, she’s an amazing patroness of the dark arts and necromancy, and provides a lot of protection and guidance to her devotees.

protection? really??

well, the way how she manifest to me, she’s very protective, not in the sense that she will take you by the hands and be with you like a child, but when it really goes wrong, like attacks from the dead or other mages, she will be there and intervene if necessary.
Still this is how she appears to me, I believe that Gods/Goddessess and spirits appear differently to different people, factors to be taken into consideration is karma, personality traits and content of one’s own mind, it’s like the hermetic law of resonance, Lucifer may be the beautiful morning star light-bringer for some while being a horned god and lord of darkness for others.

interesting thanks
