Synopsis:
Discover the powerful pantheon that guided people in Eastern Europe for centuries by embarking on a magical journey into the world of ancient Slavic religion. This in-depth exploration of Slavic mythology reveals the many faces of its gods, from the thunder god Perun, who wielded lightning bolts, to the earth mother Mokosh, who presided over births and crops.
Learn about the intricate world of Slavic paganism across regions like Russia, Poland, the Czech Republic, Serbia, and Bulgaria. Veles, the cosmic blacksmith and father of the sky, is the lord of the earth and cattle who can shapeshift. Lada is the goddess of love and beauty. Discover household guardians like the domovoi, forest protectors like the leshy, and water spirits like the beautiful yet dangerous rusalka.
Discover how these ancient beliefs influenced folklore, blended with other traditions during the Christianization process, and continue to inspire contemporary Slavic neopagan movements.
