Gods and Archetypes of the Ancient Slavs. The Wheel of Svarog in Modern Interpretation

Yulia Verkhlova — glossy medical journalist, candidate of philosophical sciences. The history of any nation is, first and foremost, the history of its food. And all so-called folklore is a poetic way of procuring food. Start your immersion into Slavic paganism not at the level of religion, but at the level of nutraceuticals and ethnolinguistics, and you will understand how Slavic gods were born. When you live at the crossroads of paths from east to west and from north to south, when on your left and right there are forests, and in the forest roam wild beasts and snow does not melt for half a year, it is quite difficult to remain a vegan. In this book, you will find short stories about ancient gods, sometimes non-standard interpretations of their names and functions, a mythological excursion into the essence of solar-lunar calendars, holidays and fasts, permissions and restrictions.
