he Many Gods Anthologies is a new series of publications bringing together scholarly papers and accounts of personal gnosis about the deities who hold a special place in our hearts. This is Volume 1 – Hekate.

Of all the ancient deities who have seen a rise in popularity in recent history, the modern day worship of the multifaceted Greek/Anatolian Goddess Hekate is particularly remarkable. Since the early 2000s, Hekate's rising popularity has been accompanied by a wave of publications (both academic and experiential) and emerging spiritual communities and organisations around the world.

This collection of essays draws on Hekate's fascinating and complex history, while acknowledging the diversity of beliefs and practices among modern day devotees. Contributors from Europe to South America cover a wide range of themes from theatre to dreamwork, from hero worship to household devotion, from Orphic tradition to the modern adoption of Hekate in foreign lands. A fascinating mix of research and personal gnosis, this book is a celebration of the modern day cult of Hekate, itself an extraordinary example of a rekindled and global faith.
