hectate was the Queen of the witches, she was said to have special powers. To those who practice wicca, she is considered to have had a close connection to the goddess. some think she IS the goodess, but don't get them confused she wasn't; she was very in touch with the godesss, and the earth and she was considered the most powerful witch ever. Many believeshe still watches over those who still follow the old ways.Other than that that's about all I know of her now. I'm still doing research on her myself, Hope this helps.

Why are the scenes that include Hecate often not used in Macbeth?

Scholars tend to believe that those scenes (ones involving Hectate etc) are not actually written by Shakespeare. The style of writing is noticeably changed, and the scenes do not match the rest of the storyline- Macbeth is known for being an incredibly fast paced play, which often gets straight to the point of the plot. Scenes with Hectate have no real meaning for Macbeth's character and therefore do not fit in with the rest of the play.

Who is the goddess of witchcraft?

This depends on the Witch. Different Witches follow different Goddess's or Gods, depending on their religious association. Many Pagan Witches have either a Matron Goddess or a Patron God or both, whom is/are their primary focus of worship. Many Wiccans follow a similar system. Many Wiccans believe in an all-encompassing creative force known as "The All", "The Source (of all Life)", "The Creator", which is comprised by the polarities of both the God (the Lord), and the Goddess (The Lady.)
