A comprehensive overview of modern Hekatean witchcraft, Entering Hekate’s Cauldron is about doing witchcraft, specifically witchery centered on the beloved goddess Hekate, with her etheric cauldron as the source. This book is for anyone interested in deepening their spiritual journey as a witch. Entering Hekate’s Cauldron completes Cyndi Brannen’s trilogy, including Entering Hekate’s Garden and Entering Hekate’s Cave, which may be read in any order.
Written in the style of a traditional Book of Shadows, the contents cover many of the common practices of modern witchcraft, ranging from personal development to spells, rites, and rituals. Beginning with foundational practices, such as setting up an altar and connecting to a spirit guide, the book then offers instructions for understanding and honoring Hekate. A deep dive into correspondences follows, including a guide to spellcrafting, connecting with animal spirits, crafting rituals, and performing initiations.


To the ancients, the goddess Hekate symbolized the inner journey back to the soul.
Indeed, ancient philosophers identified her as Anima Mundi, the “soul of the world.” As such, she connects many archetypes associated with the cycle of life, death, and rebirth. From her role as protector of roadways to her power as the bringer of death, she offers us keys for healing.
Incorporating her personal experiences with those of her students, Cyndi Brannen weaves a supporting circle around the reader as they start their path towards soulful living, culminating in rebirth.
Blending symbolism, transcendent experiences, dreams, and natural magic with sound psychological theories and practices, Entering Hekate’s Cave guides the reader safely through the journey back to the soul.

Entering Hekate’s Garden takes readers deep into the mystical world of botanical witchery in a way no other book has before.
