Hekate
Greek goddess of witchcraft, magic, necromancy, spirits, crossroads, the night, and the Moon
Hekate was the only child of the Titans Perses and Asteria from whom she received her power over heaven, earth, and sea. She appears to have been an ancient Thracian divinity, and a Titan, who, from the time of the Titans, ruled in heaven, on the earth, and in the sea, who bestowed on mortals wealth, victory, wisdom, good luck to sailors and hunters, and prosperity to youth and to the flocks of cattle; but all these blessings might at the same time be withheld by her, if mortals did not deserve them. She was the only one among the Titans who retained this power under the rule of Zeus, and she was honoured by all the immortal gods. Hekate is known to be a bringer of good luck, wisdom, victory, and is a protector of children and households as well. She is the goddess who rules over every herb and is the one who guards gates, crossroads, and entryways of all kinds.
While Hekate is often believed to be a “triple goddess”, a Wiccan concept of the stages of maiden, mother, and crone in a goddess, Hekate actually appears in triple form to represent the crossroads. She is sometimes described as of terrible appearance, either with three bodies or three heads, the one of a horse, the second of a dog, and the third of a lion.
In one myth, Hekate assisted Demeter in her search for Persephone, guiding her through the night with flaming torches. Once Persephone was found, Hekate remained with her as her attendant and companion. She thus becomes a deity of the lower world. She is described in this capacity as a mighty and formidable divinity, ruling over the souls of the departed; she is the goddess of purification and expiation, and is accompanied by Stygian dogs.
There is another very important feature which arose out of the notion of her being an infernal divinity, namely, she was regarded as a spectral being, who at night sent from the lower world all kinds of demons and terrible phantoms, who taught sorcery and witchcraft, who dwelt at places where two roads crossed each other, on tombs, and near the blood of murdered persons. Hekate herself too wanders about with the souls of the dead, and her approach is announced by the whining and howling of dogs.
In my personal experiences with Hekate, she is very withdrawn, wise, mysterious, and often motherly. Her voice is gentle, yet is is full of power. Her presence is like the embrace of shadows in the darkest hours of the night and her voice is like the night breeze. Hekate is one with witchcraft and other forms of magic, and so she is able to greatly assist with these crafts and offer her vast knowledge on them. She is a deeply wise and nurturing teacher of the arts of magick and when giving general advice to her followers. When Hekate appears to me, she is often a beautiful woman in her early thirties with long, black hair and is swathed in shadows that nearly conceal her form. She is normally calm and compassionate, but can be terrifying when angered.

Joseph Skala Art - Isis
As goddess of life and magic, Isis protected women and children, and healed the sick. Closely linked to the throne, she was one of the greatest goddesses of Ancient Egypt. Her symbols were the ankh, her wings, and her throne headdress. Egyptians adored Isis, divine protector of the dead, for two millennia before her cult spread beyond the Nile to the rest of the Roman Emprie. The Roman writer Apuleius would glorify her as the “mother of stars, the parent of seasons, and the mistress of all the world.”

Diagnosis of the Evil Eye
You will need.-
Olive oil
Bowl of water
Cast.-
✤ Drip three drops of olive oil on the surface of the water.
✤ Watch what happens.
✤ If the drops remain distinct there is no evil eye.
✤ If they run together there is.
✤ Dispose of the oil and water safely.
✤ There are many ways of removing the evil eye but I will share one down below.
Removal of the Evil Eye
You will need.-
Lemon
Iron nails
Cast.-
✤ Drive the nails with some force into the lemon.
✤ Visualize the evil eye being pierced.
✤ Keep the lemon for three days, by which time it should begin to rot.
✤ If it does not, repeat the procedure.
You have externalized the difficulty, check that the spell worked and repeated the procedure if not. You could then repeat the diagnostic procedure to ensure that you are clear.

SANTA MUERTE, LILITH, HEKATE, KALI MA, HEL AND ERESHKIGAL ARE NOT THE SAME GODDESSES!
There is a video floating around witchtok stating that Santa Muert, Kali Ma, Hekate, Hel, and Ereshkigal are all emminations and different names for the goddess Lilith. The only similarity between these deities is that they carry the Dark Goddess archetype. They are not the same and there is so much more to their myth and personification! Similar energy, sure. The same goddesses, no. 🌹
