For beginning of the #Spring I created this, #Slavic deities Jarilo (Jarowit) and Morana (Marzanna), reunited in afterworld. They have keys to open gates between dimensions, allowing Earth to reborn.

Last weekend I was celebrating traditional Morana's effigy drowning in Vistula river to bid farewell to Winter. Later our group marched through Warsaw Old Town with Spring pole made of young branches, singing about Jarilo looking for his partner and awakening nature to new life.

I really like Slavic mythology, even though it's terribly vague and messy.

I also can't understand why we don't have some cool designs for Slavic gods.

Below is my version of Weles / Veles / Wołoch, whom I love.

The harsh lord of the afterlife lands (Nawia), with the power to transform into a Żmij, using magic, delving into the future, associated with wealth and taking care of the souls of the dead traveling through Nawia.
