A Midsummer Celebration in Russia
6/20/2007
These Russian pagans are not Asatru, but many of their beliefs and forms are related to us. Their celebrations are fascinating and wonderful to watch. The Fylfot ("Swastika" is the Hindu term) pictured in the video represents the powers of the Sun, which is honored at this time of year.
Description of video: "Kupala - one of four most great saintday Kologoda, when are connected "incompatible" things: Sky and the Earth, Fire and water. Time of summer solstice. Bright gods are located on the peak of their might."
