Liminal : relating to a transitional or initial stage of a process/occupying a position at, or on both sides of, a boundary or threshold.
We all walk the liminal. Because, if we are true to ourselves, we are always at a crossroads.
If you understand the above…read the book above the above and research Hecate.
I was taught to pronounce her Hec – Ah – Tay. It may be wrong (?)
She is the Triple-Headed Goddess of the Crossroads and, once upon a time, her gifts and powers were seen as Good and Positive.
She carries TWO Torches to Light the Way and a Key to Open All Doors. And all Three Heads Face Forwards (?!?)
But – somewhere along the timeline she became associated with Black Magic. Suicides and Criminals being hanged at crossroads. EVIL and all that is DARK and Dangerous.
How can a Goddess who carries TWO Torches be dark?
Think of a crossroad.
Behind is Pitch Black. Her two flames light, and the key opens – the three ways ahead.
PAST. PRESENT. FUTURE?
