There is a surviving Copyic tapestry, 4th century AD, I believe, which proclaimed Hestia as the most important of the gods, because as mistress of the harth, she brings every good into the home.
I was crying last night and heard in my mind “look to me, the goddess of hearth” I wasn’t familiar with any goddess of the hearth but I googled and wow did I need this today. May we all begin honor and open our Hearth to one another again.
I love this interpretation of her. Through the manifestation of her being across society, rather than from the limitation of a few select narratives. She’s too influential to be restricted that way.
Beautifully crafted and assembled, Lance. I will pay Hestia more respect now that I know her story and her wide embrace. She reminds me of Goddes Brighid in the Irish pantheon.
Thank you so much Dean! Your words mean a lot to me. I wasn’t aware of Brighid before and will look her up. Your post makes me realize it would be fun to make some episodes on Irish mythology in the future…
@@TinyEpics you absolutely must!!! She would be honoured I’m sure. During the pandemic lockdowns last year I had the time to celebrate the cycles of the moon and some of the seasonal equinoxes and festivals in the Wiccan calendar as I was stuck in my apartment. The principle Irish deities I was invoking in these circles were Brighid and Cernunos. I can tell you that they are very much alive in their own dimension and that they are similarly, a beautiful, compassionate energy. Most of these ceremonies were held at midnight and I would spend the hours before preparing the circle and making food for the seasonal celebration. It was a beautiful time and I felt very much in harmony with the time and tides. Brighid is a fascinating goddess and figure and one that couldn’t be erased by the Catholic Church, so they absorbed her as a Saint to appease their Irish congregations. If your interests go in this direction, I hope it’s enjoyable for you.
Great content as always! There is a renewed interest for Greek Mythology lately which is great, and when the Circe TV series from HBO will air in 2022 it will for sure skyrocket in a similar way with Norse mythology and Vikings
Thanks so much! I’ve been wondering about the release of Circe after reading (and loving) the book by Madeline Miller. I hope HBO does it justice! Curious to see a trailer for that at some point.
If you recall my comments on other videos, you may have noticed that I have a unique perspective on the Divines. I see Hestia as the goddess of love. No, not eros, like Aphrodite, but agape. As you rightly allude to in the video, it is not just about fire and hearth, but what these things represent - family, community, love.
Very interesting! May I request an excerpt on Hekate? I don’t find much of her in stories, but considering all of her responsibilities as a Goddess, I find it hard to believe she was so irrelevant. That’s would be awesome if you could reveal some good info!! I’ll keep checking! Thanks!
Absolutely! I will make sure to feature Hekate in her own video at some point. Btw in the video linked below I talk about Hekate as she relates to Artemis in case you haven’t seen it yet: ua-cam.com/video/9R6ebKgKsM0/v-deo.html Thanks for watching!!
In Hindu mythology it would be Agni (sound of g is pronounced as in gas). But he is a male god of fire and Yadnya . He too was one of the chief Vedic deities who later lost his prime importance. His role was similar to Hestia. Food was offered to fire and it was believed that he carries it to the Gods. Yadnya means ritual in which people sit surrounding a fire and chant hymns to deities. Incense sticks, ghee and sacred herbs are offered to fire which Agni then carries to Gods
This popped us as a recommendation and I’m so grateful to find it! Your content is interesting and informative and your voice is soft and clear. Goddesses are my main subject in my art and plan on creating a piece honoring Hestia now. I look forward to more videos and plan on looking through your past ones. Thank you
This is so wonderful to read. I’m pleased you’re enjoying the content and look forward to bringing you more goddess energy in the future. Thanks for your comment. Love the name Simply Impish btw!
Beautiful video! Really enjoyed it. Hope you will consider doing one on Hecate in future. ;-) And perhaps also one on the Furies ("the angry"), Megaera ("the grudging") Alecto and Tisiphone ("the avenger").
I just love this channel.. wonder how many people are running it... Desperately want to be a part of it...🤗🤗🤗 I am from India.. can help u with Indian mythology ( even though we don't like to call it as mythology.... 🤔)
Thank you so much! It is actually just one person running the channel: me 😊 Hopefully I can dive into the colorful world of the Indian gods at some point in the near future. Let’s chat again later about that!

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing this. I will have a look into that.
@@TinyEpics There is also a rather imposing sculpture of her, 5th cent BC, in the Antiquarium Comunale in Rome.
In my opinion, Hestia was probably the most peaceful and kind of all the Olympians. She took almost no part in conflicts.
I was crying last night and heard in my mind “look to me, the goddess of hearth” I wasn’t familiar with any goddess of the hearth but I googled and wow did I need this today. May we all begin honor and open our Hearth to one another again.
The correlation to being a Mother and the disregard for Hestia makes my heart ache.
I love this interpretation of her. Through the manifestation of her being across society, rather than from the limitation of a few select narratives. She’s too influential to be restricted that way.
Ave Héstia! 🙏🏼🔥🌞

Wonderful! I didn’t know about Agni. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge.
In Greek language Agni is synonymous with virginity and is also one of Hestia's names.

It's very interesting to watch and know about greek mythology...and this topic is really great 😃😍
Actually you explained it great 👍
Thank you very much! Happy you enjoyed the video.
Great video
Hey there! 😀 Thanks Beck!
Beautiful video! Really enjoyed it.
Hope you will consider doing one on Hecate in future. ;-) And perhaps also one on the Furies ("the angry"), Megaera ("the grudging") Alecto and Tisiphone ("the avenger").
So happy you enjoyed it! Ohhhhh and I love your ideas so much and will add them to my list. Thank you 😊 🙏
Well Done.
Thank you very interesting
Ηestia (ΕΣΤΙΑ) In other words in Greek will be Focus and an Oven
Thanks! Makes sense as it is the name of a newspaper in Greece and also the Latin word for hearth is focus 😊
