Slavic Gods Figurines

History behind Slavic goddess statues

Before christening, Slavic people believed in many gods that were related to various natural phenomenons and objects. There was a big pantheon of gods who were worshiped and respected. Sometimes people made animal sacrifices in favor of the deities or organized mystical ceremonies to praise them. This way they asked them for help to have good harvest, to heal different diseases or defeat their enemies. In ancient times, people worshiped supernatural forces and asked them for help and protection. Without knowing the exact appearance of higher beings, they were depicted as human-like, given animal features, or decorated with symbols that indicated the sphere of responsibility of God. In the digital age, the practice of worshiping idols has gone away and figurines are preserved as decorations that add a special ambiance to the home.

Mythology behind Slavic gods statues

If we compare Norse and Slavic mythology, we can see that there are many similarities. Perun is the main god of the pantheon, he is the god of thunder and war that is similar to Thor and Odin in Scandinavia. People usually worshiped Perun in high places by building shrines and special buildings for their ceremonies. Also, they often carved the images of the Slavic heathen idols on wood and stone.

Veles was considered to be the god of storm and shapeshifting. Being an enemy of Perun, he is very tricky and has sorcery skills. Myths of many Slavic tribes describe him as the one who stole Perun’s children to take them with him to hell. Veles is similar to Loki of the Scandinavian pantheon of gods.

Belobog and Chernobog are very popular in Slavic mythology and are often mentioned together as 2 sides of the same natural phenomenon – day and night, light and darkness. Literal translation of their names is “white god” and “dark god”. In some cases, Chernobog is associated with everything evil and bad, while Belobog represents everything good and kind.
