item details
This is an artistic tribute to the Hellenistic Goddess of the Crossroads, comprised of a central skull figure, torches, and a dagger.
I, as the artist, have been a practitioner and long-time devotee of this ancient goddess, and this can be seen as a piece of devotional pagan art. The style is woodcut inspired, and painted using a tritone digital water technique in Procreate.
Hekate is associated with the Underworld, as a psychopomp who stands at the threshold between all worlds. She can help the magical Seeker who works in earnest to recognize the light of potential within themselves and utilize the seeds of their own mystical development to illuminate the way ahead through the Underworld journeys that they may encounter in life.
She is understood as the Anima Mundi—The Cosmic World Soul. She is the goddess that guards liminal spaces and a mistress of the inner magical Mysteries.
If you're an art appreciator, occult practitioner, or enjoyer of Classical poetry, this bundle may be for you and I've tried my best to respect the Hellenistic tradition through the recitation and production of this art.

Readings details
HOW READINGSWORK
Astrological readings are conducted by first casting a horoscope. This is done by using the precise time and location of birth, to ascertain the positions of the planets at the beginning of the individual’s life. For this reason, a reliable, unrounded birth time is crucial—ideally from a birth certificate. Using the techniques of traditional astrology, I then assess the configurations of the planets at the moment of birth to then deliver insight into the key areas of focus within the life, natural strengths and weaknesses, as well as the time those themes will likely unfold.
MY ASTROLOGY PRACTICE
My practice of astrology finds its roots in the tradition of tropical horoscopic astrology. The techniques I utilize are highly informed by the Hellenistic tradition of natal astrology, but I have studied and actively incorporate the techniques of many medieval astrological authors as well. The techniques I observe include a focus on the seven traditional planets, whole sign houses, essential dignities, traditional sign rulerships, transits, profections, directions, progressions, lots, and more. However, I employ a plethora of more recent ideas and systems into my current practice. e.g. I use the ‘modern’ outer planets such as Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.
HOW SESSIONS WORK
All astrological readings will be conducted over video call (Zoom). Feel free to have the video camera on or off per your level of comfort. Before the session, upon booking the reading, you will need to send me your birth information and relevant questions upon scheduling your reading. I will then prepare your chart before our meeting. Upon finishing the reading, I will deliver notes in .pdf form to you as well as a recorded copy of the session through digital file transfer.
TERMS & CONDITIONS
Considerations
I am an advocate for personal autonomy and always encourage people to make mindful choices in their own lives. With respect to that, I operate under a personal commitment to informed consent. The practice and art of astrology, while based in empiricism, is not nor can it ever be an 'exact science.'
Astrology is a complex art. It provides a multivalent language that can speak to the many patterns and cycles which occur in the natural world. Although I strive to discover internally consistent patterns and interpret those observations into meaningful delineations for the querent, I cannot guarantee specific results and outcomes nor conclusive answers beyond a shadow of a doubt. I practice and acknowledge an astrology that is not wholly deterministic, and one's will plays a significant role in how many trends in the natal chart will express.
