Re: How did you choose your Pantheon?
I'm wondering, when choosing which deity to work with, how did you choose which pantheon to choose from? Also, how did you choose which god and goddess within that pantheon?

Re: Could Hekate be my matron goddess?
I think if Hekate is the first who jumps to mind for you, then that is probably a good place to start! :) However, there are a few more possibilities you might want to consider, as well. For example, it's possible that the cats might be coming to act as spirit guides, without being related to a deit...
