Study of a fairy-tale hero. Where does Baba Yaga live?

Baba Yaga is a guide to the kingdom of ancestors + guardian of the family hearth + baking a child in the oven + a broom to attract money + getting married quickly + making a motanka + protecting a person before and after using the amulet

Baba Yaga, cunning with all sorts of inventions, and, as usual, evil, came to us from cartoons and children's fairy tales. However, all her anger is most likely the role in which the forest witch from the house on chicken legs, located far away in a dense thicket, constantly resides. It turns out that she can be not only against, as in the cartoon of the same name, but also for. The old woman, with a large hooked nose, a shock of long unkempt hair and iron teeth, was considered by the Slavs to be the patroness of the female race, the keeper of the family hearth and the protector of the home from negative energy. However, with the advent of Christianity, the caring old woman was considered an evil spirit, and her doll figurines were replaced with icons.

Popular types of amulets for home

There are three types of Slavic amulet for the home:

1. Material or objective.
2. Symbolic.
3. Verbal (conspiracies).

The etymology of the word speaks of the protective, energetic, mysterious effect of amulets. Items that protect the family from the effects of directed negativity have been replenished with a fourth type - church amulets (icons, prayers).

Magic items

The variety of forms and different purposes do not change the main protective function of the amulet. Popular magical items include: embroidery, bags of herbs, Baba Yaga, brownie, horseshoe, bast shoes, images of an owl - a symbol of care and patronage.

Amulet Broom or Broom: a broom downwards sweeps away rubbish from the house, a broom upwards means money.

Explanation of ethnographers: the image of the goddess of life and death, an experienced herbalist, was distorted by people. The evil Yaga could not be a talisman for the family. The guardian of the border between the world of the dead and the living had access to secret knowledge. She treated, not ate, children. She taught, but did not kill good fellows. The modern interpretation classifies Baba Yaga as a powerful amulets. A magical object changes its meaning depending on its location: in the kitchen it attracts the right guests, in the study it helps to achieve success, at the bedside of an unmarried girl it looks for a good groom.

The meaning of the amulet “hanging bast shoes”: Symbols of good luck, prosperity, family happiness ward off troubles, protect children from illnesses, and a couple in love from envy. To appease the brownie, they put sweets in bast shoes and weave small shoes from hemp. To attract wealth, coins are thrown inside. An apartment amulet, hung above the mirror, protects pets.

Interpretation of historians: in the old days, worn-out homemade shoes made of birch bark were hung on the fence, above the barnyards, near the porch. It was believed that the more bast shoes placed, the better the harvest. The “evil” eye will get caught up in magical objects and forget to look into the garden.

Indoor flowers and plants as a talisman for the home

Biologists have explained why amulets plants are considered the best protectors of the hearth. It has been scientifically proven that herbs emit radiation that is detected by sensors. Plants discern people's intentions, recognize threats, are endowed with memory, and have other fantastic abilities. Our ancestors knew about this and did not place orchids in the bedroom. Known energy thieves steal a person's strength at night and before dawn. Other abilities are possessed by the insidious vine, which attracts misfortune with its entangling stems. But the flowers of amulets for the home are significantly outnumbered by pests. A few examples:

1. Azalea is famous for its active energy flows. A houseplant protects against envy, gossip, and lies.
2. Geranium flowers protect family happiness, neutralize aggression and negative energy.
3. The best amulet for the home is a cactus placed on the windowsill. The prickly tropical plant has the power to prevent any negative energy from entering the house.
4. The Monstera house amulet has amazing quality. The plant is called a neutralizer of chaos vibrations, providing harmony, orderliness, and family comfort.
5. The violet and its delicate flowers have great energetic power: they relieve bad thoughts, protect children, and close the passage for negativity.

The amulet for the front door protects against the evil eye and damage, and attracts good luck. Wormwood as a talisman for the home is needed by families where they constantly quarrel, sleep poorly, and are often irritated. To get rid of accumulated negative emotions, just light a dry twig and walk around the house. A dried bouquet of wormwood is a magical weapon against dark forces, as it exudes positive energy.

Tree amulet for home

Scientists have found that trees have positive energy, the strength of which is explained by constant growth and renewal.

Icons protecting home and family

A big mistake is to consider icons as church amulets that automatically protect against life’s adversities. A major icon painter, theorist of church art, Archimandrite Zinon called the image of the faces of saints an embodied prayer. The mysterious action arises not from the icon, but through it. The icon has a prayer purpose and should not be an interior decoration. Invisible protection manifests itself with the correct attitude towards the images of heavenly protectors and sincere faith.

According to ancient tradition, the icon “Protection of the Most Holy Theotokos” is hung above the entrance to the home, which is capable of energetically protecting the family from all troubles. According to church tradition, the Virgin Mary threw her head veil over the praying people and saved them from the Saracens. The icon helps the Orthodox when they need protection.

Icon of the Blessed Virgin Mary

Nikolai Ugodnik is considered the people's favorite helper, who supported people in a difficult, hopeless situation. The saint's intercession extends to all areas of human life. Prayer in front of the icon protects against any injustice, helps the slandered, changes fate, and heals the sick.

According to astrologers, the house amulet in the image of St. Nicholas the Wonderworker acquires special power for people born on July 23 - August 23, November 23 - December 21.

Prayer amulet for home

Very powerful amulets for the home are prayers, the expediency of which has been explained by modern science of bioenergy. It has been proven: words (sound vibrations) are a complex combination of digital codes that cause fluctuations in the general biofield of the Earth. Through the energy component of prayers, which have been formed over centuries, they communicate with the Almighty. The cosmos triggers a reverse mechanism, sending protection to the praying person. Prayer-amulet for family and home requires the observance of a special ritual:

• seeking help is carried out in the morning or before bedtime (alone);
• candles or a lamp should burn in front of the icon, enhancing sound vibrations;
• words should contain gratitude, and not just requests;
• the prayer can be read from a sheet of paper.

An appeal to God will not remain unanswered, said Christ. Be sincere.

The spell-prayer, which is called an uninterruptible amulet, combines pagan and Orthodox traditions. The ancient text absorbs negative energy and protects from enemies and any problems.

A powerful home talisman for Orthodox Christians is the “Seven Crosses” prayer.

Hypostases of a fairy-tale witch

The figurine of Baba Yaga, or as she was previously called - the Sorceress, plays a big role in the personal life of a girl or woman, being her protector. The sorceress has always been considered a very knowledgeable, wise, quite understanding woman. Girls can trust a store-bought figurine or a hand-made motanka with their secrets, women can share problems, and older ladies can seek advice. In addition, the fairy-tale representative has several more incarnations:

1. A guide to the kingdom of ancestors. Based on folk tales, Baba Yaga - Yagikha, Yaginishna, Yagishna, lives far away - on the border of the world of the living and the world of the dead. The old woman constantly communicates with the spirits of her ancestors, which helps people cross the line that lies before the land of the dead. Therefore, the intimidation of small children by Baba Yaga was transformed from the fear of our ancestors of death, which instilled fear in them. However, good fellows accidentally or deliberately entered the grandmother’s hut, and the meetings always ended in a positive mood. After death, all worthy people ascended to Heavenly Svarga - a heavenly country, from where, together with their ancestors, they watched over their family, and if difficulties arose, they provided support, which explains why people turned to the help of their ancestors.
2. The ancestor of the family and mother. Slavic peoples called the grandmother Yaginya-Mother, who conducted ritual initiations. For example, the beautiful maiden found herself in a house on chicken legs, where she worked hard - she cleaned the room, cooked food, carried water to the bathhouse, and did needlework. According to some opinions, this is how the witch prepared girls for future family life. Baba Yaga seems to be the custodian of the institution of the family, she taught to understand motherhood and raise children. When epics talk about the theft of boys, this is about a ceremony of initiating them into hunters. The old woman tested their skills in hunting the beast.
3. Witch and healer. Many fairy tales say that Yaga tried to put boys on a shovel in order to fry them in the oven. This refers to the Slavic ritual of overbaking a child. Weak and sick children were wrapped in warm dough and sent on a shovel to warm themselves in a Russian oven. It was generally believed that the child was being born for the second time, because the mouth of the furnace was associated with the mother’s womb. The baby’s illnesses came out through the chimney, and he himself became healthy and strong.

In some northern Russian villages, the ancient ritual of re-baking is still performed. If the baby often confuses day with night, cries all the time, and is often sick, it is believed that he has been replaced, and therefore the baby needs to be rebaked. The ritual is performed by two family members - the oldest woman in terms of years and the smallest, but able to stand on her own, child. In essence, the child does not perform anything, he must only be present during the ceremony. The grandmother ties the baby to a special bread spatula and thrusts it into the mouth of a warm oven three times in a row, saying the following phrase:

After this, the baby is considered reborn and ready for life in the real world. Therefore, when in fairy tales Yaga put her supposedly future victims on a shovel, she tried to cure them, improve their health and bring them to the level of maturity.

The witchcraft objects described by epics are also not accidental. The attributes indicate her contact with the world of the dead and speak of the following:

1. The hut is similar to the chicken hut of the ancient Slavs, with bird feet placed on stumps, where the ashes of the deceased were placed.
2. The uninvited guest had to persuade the hut to turn towards him and explain the reason for his arrival. Upon entering the house, he was fed, then given water, and steamed in a bathhouse, which is symbolized by elements of the funeral rite.
3. Fairytale geese-swans served as guides to the other world.
4. A fence made of skulls and bones helped control the forces of nature.
5. The grandmother's flying broom symbolized purification.
6. Yaginishna’s unkempt hair attracted cosmic forces and energy.
7. Baba Yaga never wore a girdle, due to the fact that the belt served as protection from spirits, and Yagikha had no one to protect herself from.

Based on the above, we can conclude that Baba Yaga is an echo of matriarchy, where the main role was played by a woman, ruling her family. Later, the feminine principle changed to masculine, and the mistress was replaced by the ruler.

Note! If you study the real image of Baba Yaga, you should read fairy tales published no later than the first third of the last century.

Its strength will depend on the correct placement of the amulet. In ancient times, protecting the home was of great importance. Even when laying the foundation for housing, they used coins in the corners. At each stage of building a house, certain attributes were used that had different powers. The final stage was carving, which performed magical protection of the family and living space from evil spirits and “bad” people.

The front door is the most dangerous place for evil to enter. The entrance amulet should be placed first. Mostly amulets are placed above the threshold to protect the house from flows of negative energy. Secondly, amulets for good luck, prosperity, and wealth are hung on the door (or above the door).

Amulets and talismans are present in every culture. Traveling to different cities and countries, people bring various talismans. The Holy Land is Jerusalem. The amulets brought from there have especially powerful magical and energetic powers, since almost all amulets in the Holy Land are made by hand.

Since ancient times, the Orthodox have worshiped various Saints: the Mother of God, Nicholas the Wonderworker, Christ the Savior, who protected not only the house, but also the village. Prayers for family happiness are quite natural if you want to live in peace with your spouse, children, and parents. You can turn to the Saints for help and protection in the temple, in front of the miraculous faces. But if it is not possible to visit church, pray at home at your iconostasis.

Prayer to Matrona of Moscow can save even in the most difficult situations. It has healing properties and helps to establish peace in the home.

In order for there to be peace in the family, you need to read a prayer to Matrona before going to bed.
