My new #witchcraft read! Also I think it’s funny that for some people “all roads lead to Rome”, but for me all roads lead back to the Nords. Lol Just thought it was interesting. I’m really excited to start learning about another path. There’s a podcast by Magick and Mediums on YouTube where @natasha_helvin is interviewed about Slavic witchcraft. You can find the link in my blog (in my bio). Спасибо, @natasha_helvin 🖤💀🖤 #witchcraft #russianwitchcraft #slavicwitchcraft #witchbooks #witchreads #occultreads #pagan https://www.instagram.com/p/CM8pOPUHY48/?igshid=chvz30vwh8b9

Baba Yaga’s Talismanic Necklace // These necklaces were Ritually handcrafted by The Witch & are an ode to Baba Yaga & her hut. Adorn to invoke her wisdom, remember the past & to power through obstacles yet to come. Beautiful carved stone beads all beautiful all unique. Obtain via #TheWitchery via https://www.thewitchery.ca/product/baba-yagas-skulls-talismanic-necklace/ It is said that if you encounter her, she will either eat you, put you to work or give you advice. If she gives you advice, the outcome will be better than you could imagine. If she puts you to work, the work will be hard but you will do better than you ever dreamed possible. If she eats you, well, better luck in the next life! In story and song, she is a Russian witch, best known for her dealings with Vasalisa. Around the mortar are images from one of these tales. She rides her mortar, using her pestle as a rudder and sweeps away her tracks with a broom as she travels the night sky. Baba Yaga lives in a hut which stand on chicken legs. In most folk tales she is portrayed as an antagonist; however, some characters in other mythological folk stories have been known to seek her out for her wisdom, and she has been known on occasion to offer guidance to lost souls. . . . . . #babayaga #slavic #slavicwitch #slavicfolklore #slavicwitchcraft #ьаьаяга #babayagashut #slavicfolkmagic #talisman #slavicmythology #slavicpagan #witchcraft #witch #witcheryway #witches #folklore #slavicpaganism #spellwork #ritual #amulet https://www.instagram.com/p/Co-ETBJLJ1R/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Vesna Ritual Oil // Celebrated thousands of years ago as the victory of the Light over the Dark, Day over Night, Spring over Winter. The Return of the of Sun & the Resurrection of Spring. Use to welcome the spring back, fertility, & for any rites pertaining to new beginnings & Springtime. Obtain at #TheWitchery.Ca via https://www.thewitchery.ca/product/vesna-ritual-oil/ The vesna or vesnas were mythological female characters associated with youth and springtime in early Slavic mythology. In the 19th century, Slavic peasants celebrated the return of spring on March 1 by going out to the fields, carrying a clay figure of a lark on a pivot which had been decorated with flowers. They sang songs naming the spring season Vesna. These beautiful women called “vesnas” lived atop mountains where they discussed the fate of crops and of humans. A magical circle around their palaces kept them from leaving the mountain top except during the month of February. Only certain people were capable of hearing them singing and those who snuck up to their mountain might learn their fates, but risked an unpleasant end if they were caught. Anoint to welcome back the spring, fertility, and for any rites pertaining to new beginnings. Can be used as a dressing oil on yourself or anoint candles, petition papers, spell papers, charms, fetishes or anything else you wish. . . . . #slavic #slavicmythology #slavicwitch #slavicwitchcraft #slavicfolklore #witch #witchcraft #spring #slavicpagan #vesna #vesnas #ritual #ritualoil #witches #witchcraft #spellcraft https://www.instagram.com/p/Cocn4ovrGOp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Ladanki are small Slavic charm bags that were worn on the belt, around the neck (or for us modern folk in a pocket or purse). They contain written spells, herbs, stones, amulets & talismans. I only sew them once a year on New Years Eve so each batch is gone when they are sold out. Shown here are the remaining 2021-2022 ones I made. Few are left and when they are gone they are gone. Tomorrow I will begin sewing them once again. Happy New Years Eve Eve all. ❤️ Obtain via #TheWitchery at https://www.thewitchery.ca/product/ladanki-charm-bag/ These bags have been filled by the Witch with herbs to aid in protection, prosperity, & luck. They have sewn shut with whispered spells & charms. #slavicwitchcraft #slavicwitch #slavic #ladanki #goodluck #nye #newyearseve #witchcraft #witch #talisman #amulet #spellwork #slavicpagan #slavicfolkmagic #bathhouseatmidnight #witchy #witchythings #spellsandmagic #ritual https://www.instagram.com/p/CmzLCy8pHLS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
