God or Goddess?, and why? Mine is Hecate. She is the the Thracran Goddess of the moon. Also the crone and queen of the world of spirits. Hecate is many things. She can rejuvinate or kill. She is the triple Goddess. I keep a framed picture of her on my altar. There is so much more I can say about her. So tell me who your favorite is.

Hum, I used to like Isis and Aphrodite, but I have changed over to Bridgid. I am no longer a maid, but not a mother, and certainly not crone yet. I am an artisan, musician, and crafts person as well as a brewer, so Bridgid is perfect for me. Interesting choice in Hecate. She does tend to change, like the Moon. I'm afraid she's a little too scary for me, though I have done mime of her and have impersonated her on New Year's night - to the delight of my fellow pagans. I'm afraid her power was just a little much for me, though. :)

I have total respect for Hecate. She holds so much power. I just have such a connection to her. To Honor Hecate is to understand her. I have a picture of her on my altar, which I talk to eveyday.

I have a few favorites actually--a blending of Egyptian, Celtic and Norse gods and goddesses--such as Isis, Bast, Maat, Sekhmet,Freyja, Hecate, Bridget, Cerridwen, Rhiannon....for the gods..Bragi, Ohdinn, Lugh, Ogma, Horus, and Seshat...real mix of favorites..no?

I have an intrest in Bast, Bridget & Isis, but can't seem to get a connection with them. It seems Hecate is the only one for me. Is this an odd thing?

Maybe for some reason I have a real connection with Bast in particular due to my kitties...LOL and the most sacred of all cats in Egypt was the black cat...like my Pyewacket--so maybe Bast is HIS favorite goddess!!

I think the Goddess I relate to and have called out from myself the most would be Kali Ma....though I did call up Persephone with incredible results..Kali is often thought of the Dark Goddess or the Dark Mother and is generally thought to be feared etc etc but to me she is the part of me that my Mother Bear aspects come from...she is also my Defender and Justice aspects and my protective aspects over my kids (all kids including my own) and abuse victims etc etc.....

I'm rather drawn to Kwan Yin, and a little to Diana. Two completely different pantheons I know, but hey, you can't really mess with who you are drawn too. God wise however I'm really not drawn to anyone. I'm more of Goddess type of person.

This is so true, and I have never felt drawn to any god. Perhaps one has never jumped out at me and given me a sign.

I'm drawn towards Diana, because I feel a close connection to the moon and have always automatically drifted towards her. I also am drawn towards Bastet and the Green Man.

I feel we are chosen by our Gods & goddesses. I don't know why. I often wonder why the dark goddess of the underworld would chose me. I do know, that when Hecate is your Goddess, you must be careful how you conduct yourself.
