Goddess of The Day: Leshachikha

Goddess of The Day: Leshachikha
Slavic Plowing Season
 
Themes:  Earth; Nature; Harvest; Birth; Protection
Symbols:  Soil; a Leaf; Seeds
 
About Leshachikha:  A Goddess who sometimes appears as a Slavic forest, a wild animal, or a leaf, Leshachikha is said to have died in October and revived around
this time in spring.  She fiercely protects her lands, not taking kindly to any who abuse them.  In this manner she teaches us about reciprocity and nature's fury.  Additionally, Leshachikha's watchful aspect can be
applied to our figurative lands--for example, safeguarding our homes.
 
To Do Today:  Whenever you need a little extra protective energy, pick up a fallen
leaf and put it in your pocket.  This will keep Leshachikha's guardian
powers with you all day.  To bring that protection into your home, wax
the leaf to preserve it, symbolically sustaining the magical energy
forever.  Put the waxed leaf near your entryway or in the room where you spend the most time.
 
Go to a nearby field or park today and scatter some seed to Leshachikha to greet her as she awakens.  Today marks the beginning of the plowing
season in Slavic regions.  Before this date the earth is regarded as
pregnant.  It is a crime against nature and Leshachikha to plow the soil with iron tools when it still bears a magical child (spring).  Once
earth has given birth, the fields can then accept new seed, which the
birds will also appreciate!

Lithuanian Folksong

O blooming one, O Goddess,
O Zemyna, bloom for us:
bloom in the rye fields,
bloom in the barley fields,
bloom in all the fields,
bloom now and bring us
grain in the harvest to come.
~Lithuanian Folksong
 
In Slavic lands, this was traditionally the first day of plowing, for it
was believed that until this day, Mother Earth, was pregnant and would
be injured by the sharp blades of farming implements. Few of us today
earn our livelihood by bringing food forth from the fields, and so we
have lost many of the traditions that sustained our foremothers. We
respond tot he cycle of the seasons nonetheless, revelling in the sweet
feeling of warmer air against our winter-starved skins.
 
Even if we have no land in which to plant real seeds, we can build rituals
that honor the springtime fervor as it comes into our souls. Human
beings are ritual-making creatures. We might not build them consciously, but from them we will. We honor the goddess most effectively when we
create rituals that express the best of ourselves and our intentions
toward this earth, our mother.
