Hecate Moon Goddess 34cm Ornament

Cast in the finest resin before being given a bronzed finish, this mystical Goddess comes from alternative brand Nemesis Now's Giftware Collection. Hecate is a goddess in ancient Greek religion and mythology, most often associated with crossroads, entrance-ways, light, magic, witchcraft, knowledge of herbs and poisonous plants, ghosts, necromancy, and sorcery. Here she is depicted as a singular being holding a light torch, flanked by her dogs. Dogs were a common sacrificial animal in rites to invoke the goddess, and the sacrificed dog was often eaten, but some theories hold that Hecates dogs were actually shades or demons.
