Thieves traditionally rendezvoused at Laverna’s shrine to divvy up their plunder. She had a sanctuary there as well as a sacred grove on the Via Saleria, the ancient highway that cut across the Apennine Chain from Rome to the Adriatic Sea. Rome’s Lavernal Gate (Porta Lavernalis) on the Aventine Hill was named in her honor. Clever thieves who find favour in her eyes witness Laverna with head and body intact. Those who prove to be bunglers will see only her body. Allegedly those who first invoke her see only her head. Thieves (especially clever thieves and shysters as opposed to thugs) MANIFESTATION: Her name may derive from the verb Levare meaning “to lift” as in literally to lift a load but also to lift your wallet. Laverna is traditionally worshipped in silence. Laverna continues to adapt: in recent years she has become associated with media piracy bootlegging and illicit downloading. She’s not a moralist: Laverna will help dead-beat dads escape obligations and assist women whose pregnancies threaten to wreck their lives. Both men and women may request her assistance when pregnancy is inconvenient, embarrassing or worse. Laverna is also identified with illicit pregnancy.
She became identified with the criminal underworld rather than the underworld realm of death. Thieves traditionally operate under cover of the night and so Laverna became their matron. In her earliest incarnation, Laverna seems to have been a goddess of darkness, night and the underworld.
She may be sympathetic towards you if you know who committed the crime: Laverna gets annoyed with shoddy crime and bungling. Laverna may also be petitioned for protection from crime and for the return of stolen articles however, be forewarned: Laverna’s sympathies tend to be with the thieves. Author Charles Godfrey Leland, an authority on Italian witchcraft, describes Laverna as the “patroness of pilfering.” She is invoked by the light-fingered for blessings and protection. She is the goddess of illegally gotten funds and goods. Laverna is the matron of charlatans, con artists, card sharps plagiarists counterfeiters thieves and bamboozlers of all kinds.
