“These magic stakes are used in magic to pin down and destroy demons. Each category of demon has a particular stake. Note the Buddhist symbolism of crossed vajra handled flaming swords on the stake to the left, and the central vajra empowering the stake to the right”

hekate (or hecate) was the goddess of magic, witchcraft, the night, the moon, ghosts, and necromancy. she was the only child of the titans perses and asteria, from whom she received her power over heaven, earth, and sea.
hekate was usually depicted in greek vase paintings as a woman holding twin torches. sometimes she was dressed in a knee-length maiden’s skirt and hunting boots, much like artemis. in statuary, hekate was often depicted in triple form as a goddess of the crossroads.

‘This Trump was formerly called Strength. But it implies far more than strength in the ordinary sense of the word.
