Hekate and witches

Hallowe’en is witching time but OGOM has recently been directing its attentions to witchcraft for a while now, leading up to the next OGOM conference, covering the topic (all very vague at the moment, but watch out for news). The always-fascinating Folklore Thursday people have an excellent article here on Hekate and her transition from pre-Olympian Greek goddess to the sinister witch figure of Renaissance drama.
