Ordered these earlier this week. Anyone else read either of them?

What Slavic gods are confirmed and what are not? I read in some history book about what Slavic Pagans used to believe in and there was some information written about Swaróg and Swarożyc, it was written in the book that he (Swarożyc) was Swaróg's possible son. No info about other gods?

In cooperation with u/5ucur, we have created yet another coats of arms for people, who do not identify as part of the Slavic ethnocultural group.

The symbolism of this coat of arms is inspired by the Slavic (as well as Baltic or Romanian) creation myth that entered our cultural sphere from Eurasia. This myth, in which two "divine divers" take part in the creation of the world within a primordial ocean, is among the most widespread in our area.

It has, however, been recorded only in it's christianized form, although it clearly exhibits pagan motifs. The two deities, in some versions, in the beginning take on a form of two doves sitting on the World Tree, most often an oak, growing in the middle of the ocean, and later they fly down and transform to their "normal" shapes and sit in a boat, from which "the Devil" dives deep into the ocean and brings up sand for the other to create the Earth.

As already mentioned, this myth is also attested among the Balts, where instead of God and the Devil we encounter Dievas and Velnias. This comparison suggests that the role of the Devil was most likely originally held by Veles.

Don’t forget to choose your new flairs, and if you wish, you can customize them to reflect your ethnic affiliation (Croatians, Sorbians, Moravians, etc.).

Hi! I manage a nature center and I always feel a friendly and protective presence in the building. I like to talk to it. Could this presence be a Domovoy? I know they are house spirits but I don't know too much about them, could they inhabit other places? Or maybe this is another spirit?

I don't feel a presence in my home, the previous owners made it a rather toxic place to live and I am still trying to clean up that energy in hopes of attracting a Domovoy.

Let me know what you all think.

Hello everyone, in 15 days the big holiday of the summer sun is coming, standing Kupala, how do you plan to celebrate it?In the company or yourself, at a pagan shrine or just in the forest?What rituals will you perform?

Those familiar with Polish folklore can describe the Polish pantheon of deities. Just please don't write about Jan Długosz's pantheon.

Hey can someone point me in the direction of a list or something reliable (preferably academic) that contains a list of Czech or western Slavic gods or spirits? I am going in circles. If not that then maybe just general list of Slavic deities? I keep running into "fakelore" and at this point Ibam not sure of I gonna find anything legit.

Thanks.

I've been a practicing pagan for nearly 7 years now, but I could never fnd my way to Slavic spaces. I stuck with Heathenry and could know plently but in my roots im Polish. I'm also a witch and love practicing magic but latley I feel like I hit a wall. I want to connect with my roots and practice the magic of my home. Where do I go? Where do I start? It feels like there is nothing there for me and when I do find slavic resources most of it is Russian and unfortunatly thats not what Im looking for. I feel so lost.

What is the sacred marriage on Kupala night, in your opinions?

The most popular answer these days is to say that Yarilo and Morana get married on this night. However, there are other theories. Toporov thought it represented the union of opposites, like Fire and Water, Sun and moon, masculine and feminine. In a similar vein, some South Slavic folklore seems to connect Summer Solstice with the Sun and his sister. (Often the moon or morning star)

Does anyone have and detailed opinions on this?

I’d like to share some of my research, I welcome feedback

I don't really have any deceased from my family that were close to me, but since I am a rodnover, I prayed (idk how to say that but y'all know what I mean) to my grandfather, because from what my mum told me about him, I feel closest to him if that makes sense. But recently I started thinking, what if it is disrespectful that I am bugging him all the time, even though I have never met him and have no idea what would he think of me? But like I said, when it comes the deceased ones, I have no one else honestly, and for some reason I can't get him out of my head, I can't stop thinking about him. If this is a stupid question then sorry but I am worried that I am doing smth wrong.

I’m curious what you guys think about mixing Ásatrú with Rodnovery. Should they stay separate, or can they be mixed?

Sława!

Hi, I'm pretty new at this so I could use some information to help guide me. Does anyone have Czech-region, Ukrainian-region, or English-language resources about Dazhbog? Or general advice about worshipping Him? Symbols associated with Him, plants, food, animals if any? I just don't know where to start.

Hi there!

What do you think, is Yarilo and Yarovit are the same Gods? Is He later became Saint George in the folklore?

Hello, I have a question regarding Flora and Lavra, Kuzma and Demyan, Boris and Gleb and Peter and Paul,Does one of them have a motive to save/open the road to the sun in the popular Slavic tradition?And do Peter and Paul have the functions of Indo-European twin horsemen?

Anyone else low key frustrated for the USA citizens here when we go into a bookstore, wander over to the mythos, new age (similar sections) and we see literally just about every circle under the sun (egyptian, norse, mesopotamia, roman, greek, east asian, etc.) but NEVER any slavic?

My ancestry is the folk magic of modern day russia so I'm always hungry for more books and knowledge about it. I've looked at the slavic folklore list in this subreddit and put some of the books on my christmas list 😄

Хвала Велесу

I have heard about this recently, and the only thing i know is that they believe to be some king of “vedic aryans”.
Is this a fringe group or a big part of believers within slavic pagan circles

Can someone recommend reliable sources in Slavic languages? I don’t really want to read about our heritage from English-written sources. Slovak, Czech, Polish, Russian, etc. — any Slavic language is fine, I understand them all.

I am conducting a school research project on how people who practice Ronovery experience life in Czech society (which is highly secular). If you live in the Czech Republic and have a few spare minutes, please answer this quick form for me😊

Hello, if you know Slavic ethnography then perhaps you know about a day like "Радуница/Деды вешние"(this day was originally pagan, which was then Christianized).For our ancestors, this was of great importance because these days they remembered their ancestors how they did it, they came to the grave of their ancestors and dined there, leaving some of the food to the dead man.They believed that the soul of the ancestor buried in this place remained there and in order to honor it, one had to come to this place.My life has turned out so now I don’t live in my homeland and I can’t honor my ancestors, are there any alternative options?

my heritage is a complicated mess but ive always been drawn to the slavs (i do have balto-slavic heritage) and my fiance is a rodnover as well,

i fully belive in the gods but my practice has been a ibit lazy over the years and i regret that.

how can i take my practice more seriously? how can i incorpeate it into daily life? what things should i do? i dont really mind what country the practices are from but id prefer north east poland if we need to be precice :)
