The Rite of Her Sacred Fires is a global celebration of the Mysteries and Magic of the Goddess Hekate. Many devotees around the world performing the Rite by themselves or with friends sharing their spiritual beliefs and passion for the Goddess of the Crossroads have filmed the ceremony. This provides us with a unique glimpse of dozens of people performing the same ritual in different languages but with the same words (meaning) and the same gestures. It also provides a wonderful resource for those less experienced in ritual to see how the Rite is performed and to learn from seeing (rather than reading) which is a more traditional form of learning too (even if using modern technology!)
