Sources of knowledge about Slavic symbolism

Disputes arise about the origins of Slavic symbols. Some sources attribute ancient roots to our patterns and see in them complex patterns that describe the structure of the world. Others, on the contrary, are distrustful of Slavic symbols, even such famous ones as Kolovrat or the Star of Rus', calling them a remake.

Where is the truth? Just look at the ancient outfits preserved in northern houses self made, richly decorated with Slavic symbols to ensure that it originated many centuries ago. However, grandparents, who still know how to embroider and cut out traditional patterns, do not at all connect their meaning with the cosmos, with complex calculations, and do not explain the origin of the patterns with intricate theories.

We consider as true all the Slavic symbols that we find in the decoration of houses, folk embroidery, and amulets found in excavations of ancient cities. And we are looking for a simple explanation, close to nature, connected with our myths. But simple does not mean primitive. It is in simplicity Slavic pattern, there is deep wisdom in the ability to explain even to a small child the meaning of traditional patterns.

For example, the sign of Svarog will be both the Star of Rus' with sharp tips and the hammer, a symbol of God the Blacksmith.

Some Gods have Slavic symbols associated with images of animals. Most of these signs are attributed to God Veles. Among his symbols we find the serpentine, the seal of Veles in the shape of the paw of a bear and a wolf. Even the sign of Veles itself, in the shape of an inverted letter “A”, is otherwise called “bull’s head”.

The most universal is the division of signs according to their shape.
