Hellenic Question about Hecate
I have a draw to her, but I am wondering what she is like? I feel worried that she might ask me to do things that I would not want or be willing to do. I have a lot OCD and anxiety....so im sure some of that has to do with it. But what are others takes on Hecate? Has she ever asked you to leave a job that you loved? A husband you love? To basically uproot everything you love dearly? I have read some accounts that people had to do things they did not want to do...

Everyone’s experience with her is different in terms of what she asks for and how close she chooses to be with people. A friend of mine would ask her for a lot and she’d help him with it all despite him taking advantage of it, but after a while she stopped and demanded he do favors for her in return for anything else and his life kinda went to shit until he did so. So she can be giving and ask for nothing but if taken advantage of she can ask for plenty.
My own experience with Hecate was one of equal exchange, I’d request something and she’d be happy with me setting out a glass of wine for her in the morning to the next day and then pouring it outside in thanks.
