These are just six of the women known to both history and legend to be recorded as practitioners of magic. Beginning back as far as 25000 BCE with the Shaman Crooked Fox to about 700 BCE with Medea the Sorceress. More to come in The Ages of Magic Series #womenshistory #magic #history #artshare

No exploration of Ancient Greek Magic would be complete without mentioning Hekate, the goddess of crossroads, boundaries, liminal spaces, ghosts, necromancy and witchcraft. #Hekate #GreekMythology #MagicalHistory #Witchcraft #MythandLegend #artshare #artistsky #writersky #history #historysky #magic

Medea is a powerful Sorceress from the epic legend, The Argonautica. She is both a princess of Colchis and a priestess of the Goddess Hekate. In the legend she uses her knowledge of magical herbs and potions known as Pharmakeia, to assist Jason on his quest to claim the Golden Fleece. #mythology

In this segment of The Ages of Magic we focus on the Sorceress Circe, who was made infamous in Homer's Odyssey for transforming sailors into pigs. #writersky #artsky #artwork #GreekMythology #AncientGreece #Odyssey #Magic #History #historyofmagic #paganism #sorcery #sorceress #circe #mythology

Enheduanna, the first known author. Her writing was not only magical, it was influential & political. This great lady and high priestess inspired other writers who came after her, such as Homer, & even influencing the Hebrew Bible’s Old Testament. #writer #history #famouswomen #mesopotamia #pagan

The first figure in a series I am creating of famous magical practitioners from world history. Crooked Fox the Shaman. From a Paleolithic tribe, whose remains were discovered in the modern day Czech Republic. Estimated to be over 25,000 years old. #history #occult #writer #artshare #writersky #magic
