She was a Titan who helped overthrow the old way of life to make way for the new. She was sometimes associated with bulls and was described as bullheaded or bull-faced. #4 Hekate was the guardian of places where three roads met, and she helped souls navigate crossroads between the world of the living and the underworld inhabited by the dead. She was a goddess of fertility.
