Sonnentanz (www.myspace.com/hekatesonne )Hekate started as an experimental atonal project in the early 90ies. We first played at universities and art schools on exhibitions. We started with five members. From those five members are still two left today the others have changed. The founders are Ingo Müller, guitar and percussion and myself. There were many changes during the years. Today there are Achim Weiler, medieval instruments and keyboards, Dirk Diederich, drums , Jörg Schwickerath, percussion. Achim engaged at a castle as an musican. Further he produce musical contributions for regional theatre plays in his little studio. Jörg plays in his own ambient band called Beam Team. I..m supporting several bands live on stage and worked for my project Cascadeur. We love our name the goddess Hekate connects various characteristics, which we work out over the years. But the most important aspect is that Hekate belonged to many cultures, like the Romans, the Greek, Asia Minor...It symbolises the power of an archaic culture and stands for the old way. First we were an experimental group. We were influenced by industrial bands from the 80ies, like Einstürzende Neubauten and SPK, but also dark wave bands, like Joy Division, Devo, David Bowie, Klaus Nomi, Test Dept. But our influence goes from classical Folk to groups like Current 93, Death in June to our favourite Band Dead can Dance. We also like Moby, Massive Attack, Delirium and other Ambient Bands.

Hecate From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Hecate or Hekate (ancient Greek ?????, Hekát?, pronounced /'h?k?ti?/ or /'h?k?t/[1]) is a chthonic Greco-Roman goddess associated with magic, witches, ghosts, and crossroads. She is attested in poetry as early as Hesiod's Theogony. An inscription from late archaic Miletus naming her as a protector of entrances is also testimony to her presence in archaic Greek religion.[2] Regarding the nature of her cult, it has been remarked, "she is more at home on the fringes than in the center of Greek polytheism. Intrinsically ambivalent and polymorphous, she straddles conventional boundaries and eludes definition."[3] She has been associated with childbirth, nurturing the young, gates and walls, doorways, crossroads, magic, lunar lore, torches and dogs. William Berg observes, "Since children are not called after spooks, it is safe to assume that Carian theophoric names involving hekat- refer to a major deity free from the dark and unsavoury ties to the underworld and to witchcraft associated with the Hecate of classical Athens."[4] But he cautions, "The Laginetan goddess may have had a more infernal character than scholars have been willing to assume."[5] In Ptolemaic Alexandria and elsewhere during the Hellenistic period, she appears as a three-faced goddess associated with ghosts, witchcraft, and curses. Today she is claimed as a goddess of witches and in the context of Hellenic Polytheistic Reconstructionism. Some neo-pagans refer to .... + Informações

Author Sorita d'Este discusses vegetarianism / veganism in the context of the Goddess Hekate. In the book Hekate Liminal Rites, which she co-authored with David Rankine, there is a chapter discussing and providing an overview of just some of the ancient philosophers, witches and priestesses linked to Hekate. The authors noted that there were links to vegetarianism, and what would be described animal rights activism today in the writings of several of these - a concept which some readers found offensive. There is no doubt that voluntary vegetarianism, and more so veganism, evokes strong emotive responses in some. Sorita discusses this in the context of the book and the work and beliefs of modern devotees.

In this clip occult author David Rankine offers insights into the connection between the Goddess Hekate and King Solomon, a connection which might seem curious - but which was made numerous times throughout history. King Solomon is well known for his wisdom (as recorded in the Bible, for example), but also because he was and continues to be considered to be one of the greatest magicians of all times, with numerous grimoires and magical texts linked to him. David Rankine contributed to Hekate Keys to the Crossroads and Hekate Her Sacred Fires; he is also the co-author of Hekate Liminal Rites and books such as The Veritable Key of Solomon, The Book of Gold and more than twenty other works on subjects related to the occult, magic and mysticism.
