Slavic paganism

Here is an overview of Slavic paganism, its history and rituals. We also cover Slavic paganism today, main holidays and more.

Slavic symbols originate from Northern Europe and Eurasia. The Slavs, who were their creators, are an ethnic group that has existed in Europe since at least time of the Romans. Slavs are largest ethnic group in Europe that share a linguistic and cultural history. Ancient Slavs lived in tribal societies, presided over by tribal chieftains, and practiced a multi-theistic form of Paganism. Over time, however, tribes were consolidated and, not long after, most converted to Christianity...

Recently I’ve been obsessed with The Witcher series on Netflix. While this show is based in a fantasy universe, it is largely inspired by Slavic mythology. In the show we see several fascinating creatures from the Slavic mythos, such as the Striga and the Kikimora.

Also, I’m thinking about making an Oracle deck dedicated to Slavic magic and folklore, what do you think? Find more Slavic culture posts on my page: @lidapavlova_magic
