Hello everyone, I have multiple people asking where I got the statue of Selene. The truth is that this statue does not depict Selene, it is a random greek maiden that reminded me of Selene. I found it in an antique shop in Dublin City so I am unsure if there are others. If you search around for greek Maiden Statues I am sure you will find one with Selene's likeness!
I love this! Thank you so much!! I am a beginner witch and Polytheist, Selene is the Goddess i choose to worship the most❤️
Beautiful video. Selene is my main deity and I love stumbling across videos of her, or perhaps she led me here. New sub too
Have loved Selene since I was a child ❤
Greetings witch and hare
I am glad to have found your channel
It helped me connect with Beloved Goddess Selene Even more.
I must say i continue to seek more knowledge about her Scientifically and Spiritually.
Selene Bless you always
I am so glad my channel helped you! There is very little about her surviving from her mythology. What I listed here is the majority of what we know. The rest is all personal gnosis. Sometimes we have to continue the journey of learning and discovery through our own experiences. When I started making these videos I had to learn all by myself as Selene was not a popular deity at the time so I had no others to bounce off of. I am glad she is getting more recognition nowadays!!
I just began working with Hekate and I noticed tonight Selene really trying to get my attention during meditation. So in doing some research I came across your channel. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.
Thanks for posting this! It’s so hard finding Hellenic content!
No problem at all! I plan to do more videos on Selene specifically and maybe a few other hellenic deities I've worked with :)
I was meditating with Kali ma (she’s been my only diety I’ve worked with) and she was the one who led me to Selene. I asked Kali about my “love life” and I heard her say ‘Selena’ or ‘Selene’ but because I have never heard of Selene goddess, I thought I she said ‘Selena’. But here I am.
Thank you for making this video. Very peaceful and relaxing. I love your alter for the Goddess Selene. This video is really well made. I love the music you chose too.
thank you so much for this! your voice is so sweet 🤍 u are so underrated I swear 😫
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed :D
thank you so much 🩵
Hello i really love your videos on the goddess Selene as she is also my goddess to witchcraft i love her so much with all my heart with her amazing history and when she fell in love with Endymion. My thanks for posting the videos about the prayers to Selene these are amazing for my book of shadows notebook Blessed be you and our goddess ❤🌒🌕🌘
Keep doing what your doing! We see and appreciate you. Its awesome for your worship and practice and all new witchlings
Simply lovely sweet one, You give me hope, Protection and Blessings
I personally feel drawn to Hecate and devote myself to her, but out of all of the Goddesses she's usually conflated or syncretised with, I feel attached to Selene. Her energies kind of remind me of my youth and innocence from back in childhood. I would definitely want to work with her energies too.
Out of curiosity, where did you get that cute porcelain cat statue with those clothes? I love it so much.
The cat was made by my friend, known online as Slocotion! They make fabulous dolls, this one was a prototype and you can buy them. Find them on Instagram and etsy!
@@thewitchandhare doesn't seems like their shop is active atm. I really love that protoypee :
@@KatMorningstar3 They are on Instagram too if u want to check out more and keep up to date for shop updates. They release new dolls every now and then
Beautiful and accurate, thank you for sharing your knowledge! Also, that altar is so gorgeous!
thank you so much for this video. it's helpful for me. blessings!
Absolutely Beautiful
I just found your channel. Your content is so lovely 🥰 I look forward to seeing what you share with us next🙏
Brilliant, beautiful and very helpful video, new subscriber for sure. Love the vid darling thankyou ❤️
Thank you, this video helped me a lot :)
Hail Selene!
Thank you so much for the wonderful video ! Lady Selene is one if my patron deities and she's an absolute joy to work with. May i ask where you got the statue from ? It'd look great on my altar!
Thank you! Unfortunately the statue was bought from an antique shop in Dublin so only one there. It is a greek maiden that reminded me of Selene. If you search for greek maiden statues you might find this one or similar
This was a beautiful video. Can you please tell me what you did with the match and the shell? I’ve never seen that done before 🌙x
It's called Khernips, a purification ritual to cleanse you of miasma (spiritual dirt). I mentioned it in my video and how to use it can be found in a link in the description, it's part of hellenic pagan practices.
@@thewitchandhare Thankyou so much!🤗xx
love your accent :)
Aww thank you haha! :)
Thank you for this informative video but it would have been so much better without such loud music in the background....... otherwise it was great, just a bit hard to hear if like me you have a hearing impairment.
I have a pendant of a goddess standing and praying on the crescent moon. I wonder if this is Selene. The moon is also associated with Hecate and other Greek goddesses. Selene seems to be gentle and calming, so wondered if she is one of the aspects of these goddesses.
You can 100% use your pendant to represent Selene and wear it to honor Her. Some goddesses are associated with the moon but Selene IS the moon :) Sometimes Selene is considered one of a triple goddess aspect with Hecate and Artemis but I only work with Selene alone as her own entity, not coupled with the others.
Hi love your video. Can I ask where you got your statue. Having trouble sourcing one.
Hi! I picked this statue up at an antique shop in Dublin. It was the only one. The statue does not depict Selene herself, it's actually just of a greek maiden that reminded me of Selene! :) Unfortunately it's a very old statue so I don't know where you could find one just like it. If you have a look around for greek maiden statues in antique stores, you might find something like it! I was searching for a statue like this for a few years too. Good luck!
@@thewitchandhare Okay thanks very much!
@@shirleycampbell2523 No problem at all! I hope you manage to find one
@@thewitchandhare yes I'll share if I do.
Do you think that Selene was worshipped covertly as the virgin Mary in Roman times?
Definitely not in the same way. I would assume Artemis or Diana had more of a widespread following than Luna/ Selene did. Many gods were worshipped by smaller groups of local people rather than a widespread kind of worship. Though Selene merged with Artemis at some point and the influence Diana/ Artemis had was definitely significant.
Hy can I work with Goddess Selene and with Goddess Aphrodite at a same time??
Yes, you can work with any deities at the same time. I work with goddesses Selene, Brigid and the Morrigan.
@@thewitchandhare Wow thank you so much 💗
omg pls tell me where you got the statue!!! hehe thank u
I found it in an antique shop in Dublin City. There was only one statue. The statue isn't of Selene, it's more likely a greek maiden, but it reminded me of her. I don't know where else you could buy this statue unless you look out for greek maiden statues. Good luck!
Can you put a link so i Can Find The statue please i love Selene so much

Hi, I didn't buy the statue online, I found it in an antique shop in Dublin City. There was only one statue. The statue isn't of Selene, it's more likely a greek maiden, but it reminded me of her. I don't know where else you could buy this statue unless you look out for greek maiden statues. Good luck!
@@thewitchandhare thank you so so much ❤️✨
where can I buy this statue?
I bought it at an antique store in Dublin, it was the only one there. It's a general greek maiden statue and if you search around the internet you may find one similar. It is an old sculpt
More truth to Greek mythology
Hey :)
whats a good place to put her votive offerings?
There are no rules. Anywhere you'd like to. At her altar, outside under the moonlight, anywhere really! Just don't leave things outside permanently unless they are biodegradable and animal safe.
@@thewitchandhare its a wooden statue. I tryed the sea (selenes rise and setvin the okeanos) but the waves brought it right back 😅
@@Pakshee_C It might be better to keep statues at your altar and give food/drink into nature instead. Or light some incense, something that will disappear over time. Things like statues should be kept, otherwise it would count as litter.
@@thewitchandhare
Sure but its a gift to the moon and that feels (to me) like keeping a gift.
I made the thing myself. So no litter. Its like returning a piece if nature. Just a bit changed
@@Pakshee_C It's not keeping the gift if you put in a spot directly dedicated to Selene's worship. Shrines and temples are homes of the Gods on Earth so even if a shrine is physically in your place of dwelling anything on that shrine is in the space of the God of that shrine. So keeping an image of Selene on Her shrine is not depriving Her of anything. It's just keeping it in a space belonging to Her on Earth rather than Her usual dwelling in the realm of the Gods
this was such a beautiful video! thank you sm for it🫶
