  Laverna - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Laverna is the Roman goddess of thieves, who hears the prayers of robbers.
It was a desolate, forbidding place, believed by the Romans to be an entrance to the Underworld--both Odysseus (on the advice of Kirke) and Aeneas were said to have communicated with the Underworld there.
Furina, a Goddess later associated with Laverna, was originally a very ancient Etruscan Goddess of thieves who ruled over the Earth and the dark.

 Aradia: Chapter 15 (The Cauldron: A Pagan Forum)
Diana is declared to be the protectress of all outcasts, those to whom the night is their day, consequently of thieves; and Laverna, as we may learn from Horace and Plautus, was pre-eminently the patroness of pilfering and all rascality.
But if he did his work of knavery badly or maladroitly, when he again invoked her he saw only the body; but if he was clever, then he beheld the whole goddess, head and body.
Her image, according to some, was a head without a body; according to others, a body without a head; but the epithet of 'beautiful' applied to her by Horace indicates that she who gave disguises to her worshippers had kept one to herself." She was worshipped in perfect silence.

Therefore, I command that in future Laverna shall be the goddess of all the knaves or dishonest tradesmen, with the whole rubbish and refuse of the human race, who have been hitherto without a god or a devil, inasmuch as they have been too despicable for the one or the other.'
This is quite classic, i.e., Græco-Roman or Oriental, in all of which sources the magician relies not on favour, aid, or power granted by either God or Satan, but simply on what he has been able to wrench and wring, as it were, out of infinite nature or the primal source by penance and study.

 Eye - BOOKS: Anne Montagnes -- Jade Slash Laverna - 03.14.96   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
Anne Montagnes, who teaches creative writing at U of T, has given us a story about a girl, her killer and the others who are unwittingly associated with the death.
As the title suggests, Montagnes employs many post-modern strategies in the book, such as deconstruction, embedded text and sentence fragments, which are so familiar as to have no radical currency.
One of the strategies -- which I think doesn't work -- is to bring in and out of the story the character Polly, a kind of new-age seer who, instead of warning her loved ones about impending disaster, sits in a shrine on the other side of the country explaining everything to the reader.
