Hekate as The Triple Goddess

Hekate as a Triple Goddess is one of her most iconic images. Usually including either three heads or three bodies, there are many ancient and contemporary depictions of her like this. In my interpretation of her as a 21st century goddess, I'm merging those three forms into one body. Why? Because we live in an age where people, especially women in our western culture, are able to be more than one thing. We live in a time when traditional gender roles are being questioned, so why shouldn't we apply the same critical lens to the deities and archetypes that inspire and guide us?

Dividing her roles into three separate forms seems to speak to the past when women were regulated to only one role at a time, such as being a maiden, mother or wise woman. Hekate is many things simultaneously, including Guardian, Guide and Gatekeeper.
