Choosing religion you choose fate. Tsvetana Alеkhina

means knowledge. To know means to know. A woman who has certain knowledge. Unlike Christian statements that claim, that a Witch is an evil woman flying on a broom and serving the devil, in fact, a Witch from Old Slavonic is a Knowing Mother.

      In the pre-Christian period, women with the status of witches were highly respected members of society. This honorary title in Vedic culture was given to a woman who raised virtuous offspring. The Slavs were Orthodox -they glorified (as they say now – pagans). With the advent of Judeo-Christianity, negative information about witches spread to Russia.

      Who are Vesta, the Bride, the Witch, the Sorceress and the Witch?

      Our ancestors had an institute of female priesthood; all girls were trained before marriage and potentially had such abilities. Slavs revered the goddess of spring Vesta. She was respectfully greeted on the day of the vernal equinox – she brings spring to the Earth, good news and nature wakes up with her arrival. All this symbolizes the awakening of the Earth after a long winter sleep.

      According to the ancestral traditions of the Slavs, Vesta is a girl who is trained in all the wisdom of marriage (knowing), a knowledgeable, caring mother in the future, and a good host, a faithful, wise and loving wife. Only after the girl acquired such knowledge did she have a chance to become a wife. Everyone knows that harmony in the family, comfort and atmosphere almost completely depends on the woman. Vesta cannot have a bad husband, because she is wise. Most likely, the ancient Slavs did not even know what a divorce was.

      The «bride» is not a wine girl who takes care of herself for her husband. The bride is the girl who has not yet received the news of the upcoming wedding. Only after the wedding, the girl became a Vesta, knowing that the girl’s mother should prepare her for marriage. Vesta should be prepared to give her husband (family) healthy offspring.

      As soon as Vesta gave birth to her first child, she became a Knowing Mother or, for short, a Witch.

      The witch could teach and cure. But there came a time when many knowledge was banned, and those who preached them were expelled. They interfered with those in power. Illiterate people are easier to manage. The word Witch has become a curse.

      The birth of a girl in a Slavic family has always been a blessing from Heaven. Her parents knew that with her birth, love itself, joy, and divine light came to the family. The times have come when harmony and happiness have lost their value. Girls from childhood without knowing it to show their divine nature: they are more obedient than boys are study better; try to create beauty and harmony around themselves, caring and kind. Raising a daughter, parents show gentleness, she cannot be severely punished, or loudly swear in her presence. The task of parents is to preserve her purity and develop female character traits. After all, the world was held on these divine qualities. The girl, who was instilled with all the necessary skills from childhood, and helped to reveal the qualities of female nature, became the guardian of the happiness of all people.

      A witch is an intermediary between Heaven and Earth. The word Witch has the same root as the Vedas, what she does is she knows the secret. A witch is given a gift at birth; she has ancient knowledge, wisdom, clairvoyance, an innate gift to know the relationship of the subtle world and the physical, spiritual vision. A witch can know the cause of death, communicate with the souls of the dead, and learn about a mistake made in a past life that now affects a person’s life. In modern terms – karma, diagnostics, clairvoyance.
