Please now create an image of the autumn goddess hecate. This month's goddess is Hecate goddess of magic, witchcraft, the moon and crossroads. Depicted holding two swords, or sometimes facing 3 ways or with 3 faces, for a crossroads. Her name means ‘worker from afar’. She symbolises duality being neither good nor evil, and is a guardian of boundaries. She is a protector of warriors, hunters and children. Food offerings were traditionally made to her. Some of them were quite sinister, but one of the more palatable efforts was a basket of cakes. Please base the colour scheme on saffron and red, and include yellow, orange and golden fruits in the background. See more
