During the day, if the sun shines, it can be quite warm, but as soon as Dažbog's disk hides behind the horizon, it can be quite cold outside. In the old days, old grandmothers used to sit on the front porch and enjoy the last rays of the sun. This period used to be called  GRANDMOTHER SUMMER. (BABIE LETO) In fact, this part of the year got its name not so much because of the grandmothers in the front yard, but because it was a period dedicated to ROŽANICE.

Nowadays, we are not very aware of it, but just like in the past, we are dependent on agricultural crops. Our ancestors were much more connected to Mother Earth. However, this did not only concern hard work, but also the perception of natural changes in one's surroundings.

At the moment, I've removed everything,

During the time of Džady, we honored our ancestors by lighting candles on their decorated graves and inviting them to join our ceremonial meal. Thanks to Mokoš’s circle, we recently also performed a commemorative ritual at Raslavkaň. There weren’t many of us, but the ritual was conducted. But why, really?

I didn't even look back and suddenly it finally worked. Yes, it took a while before Gabriela and Zuzana from Global Slovakia confirmed that they would come to visit. Of course, they didn't come alone. Just recently (two days before the visit), I started to think about the possibility, to organize debates and seminars on the topic of the Old Slavs and their spirituality in my yard, and let's see, it's here.
