Hekate is a titan goddess blessed by Zeus. What better way to gain a god's favor than by assisting another goddess in the search for her kidnapped daughter?

This Sunday, join Liv as she shares the retelling of Homer’s Hymn to Demeter, which narrates the abduction of Persephone, the goddess of Spring, by Hades, the God of the Underworld.

As with many spiritual interpretations, the context of our times influences how we extract wisdom from ancient mythologies. It's no surprise that contemporary views on Persephone's descent into the underworld to wed her uncle have led to significant modern and literal interpretations. However, the allegorical meanings of this tale extend far beyond any literal readings of today.

To better convey the wisdom found in Homer’s Hymn, Liv reinterprets the poem in her own words, accompanied by quotes that intrigued her, illuminating the various lessons and depths of wisdom that can be gleaned from this mythology.

Tune in to explore a more Hellenistic perspective on this mythological reference to Hekate.
