Cauldron Reviews Hekate Liminal Rites

I am tremendously proud to have been part of the Hekate Liminal Rites project, which was the result of research with David Rankine, and which was published by Avalonia earlier this year.  Hekate is one of the most liminal goddesses of the ancient world, who significantly crosses over into a number of magical and spiritual traditions, something which Michael Howard, author of numerous books on esoteric subjects himself,  observes in this review he recently gave our book in his magazine The Cauldron:

“This is a superb study of the rites, magic, symbolism and myths of Hecate, the Greek goddess of witchcraft, necromancy and the underworld. The authors claim that she stands at the crossroads bearing the keys of the Mysteries and inspired the poets, philosophers, witches and magicians of the ancient classical world. What is interesting about his book is the link it makes between Hecate and Judeo-Christian figures such as the Archangel Michael as described in the 3rd/4th century Greek Magical Papyri. It is a classic example of dual faith magical observance in practice. Highly recommended.”
