Feast of Hecate Celebration
Monday 23rd February 2026
7pm
Mow Cop Community Hall

Feast of Hecate: A Dark Moon Celebration Evening

On Monday 23rd February, you are invited to gather at the crossroads for an intimate and earthy evening in honour of Hecate — keeper of keys, guardian of thresholds, and guide through the unseen.

Held at Mow Cop Community Hall, this ceremony begins at 7pm and unfolds as a slow descent into stillness, shadow, and deep remembrance.

This is a night of listening rather than doing, of sensing rather than striving — a space to honour the wisdom found in darkness, roots, and ancient rhythms.

🌑 The evening will include:

  • Ceremonial Cacao, rich and grounding, to open the heart and anchor the body

  • A guided Meditation with Hecate, calling in her presence as protector, guide, and torch-bearer through liminal spaces

  • Herb Blending as Ritual — working hands-on with earthy, sacred plants to craft your own Hecate blend to take home, charged with intention and devotion

  • A closing Shamanic Drum Journey, allowing the beat to carry you inward, beyond the veil, where insight and messages may rise

This circle is for those who feel the pull of the old ways, who walk between worlds, or who are simply curious about what waits in the quiet dark. No experience is necessary — only respect for the space and a willingness to arrive fully.

🕯️ Expect earth, drum, breath, and shadow
🕯️ Leave with your herbal blend, your intentions, and a deeper connection to the crossroads within

Spaces are limited to honour the intimacy of the work.

Who is Hecate

Hecate (also spelled Hekate) is an ancient Greek goddess with serious crossroads-at-midnight energy 🌙

She’s best known as the goddess of magic, witchcraft, the night, ghosts, and crossroads—both literal ones and the metaphorical “life is about to change” kind.

Here’s the vibe breakdown:

  • Origins: She’s older than the Olympians, likely coming from pre-Greek or Anatolian traditions. Zeus actually respected her so much that he let her keep her powers after the Titans lost.

  • Domains: Magic, sorcery, herbs, necromancy, protection, the moon (especially the dark/new moon), and liminal spaces—thresholds, doorways, edges of worlds.

  • Iconography: Often shown holding two torches, a key, or standing at a three-way crossroads. Sometimes depicted with three faces or three bodies, looking in different directions.

  • Companions: Black dogs (her sacred animal), restless spirits, and ghosts. Hearing dogs howl at night? Ancient Greeks might’ve said Hecate was nearby.

  • Personality (myth-wise): She’s not evil, but she is intense. Protective, fierce, and demanding respect. She helps those who honor her—and ignores or punishes those who don’t.

In later times, especially in Roman and medieval interpretations, she became more associated with dark magic and witches, but in earlier myth she was also a guardian, especially of homes and travelers.

Modern folks often connect with Hecate during times of transition, shadow work, or personal transformation—she’s very much a “I’ll walk with you through the dark, but you have to be brave” kind of goddess.
