Create your own wards, according to our master class, a doll-travnitsa is made, or else a motovka doll.

Amulet dolls are an important part of cultureSlavs. Our ancestors attached great importance to making dolls that protected the house and household from evil spirits and all sorts of misfortunes. Making your own amulet doll is a creative work, but you still need to know certain rules that must be followed in order to make the right doll. Our ancestors made dolls without a face, so that an evil spirit would not enter through the eyes. When creating a doll, you cannot use needles or scissors, everything must be tied or tied. That is why such dolls were also called motanka or rvanki (because the fabric cannot be cut, but only torn). According to beliefs, by cutting off the fabric, you cut off the energy that should accumulate in the amulet. Although when making doll clothes, it was allowed to use a needle. Naturally, when creating a talisman, a person must be in a good mood. It is not recommended to take on work angry or tired. You must convey your positive emotions and feelings to the doll. It is advisable to create a doll on your knees, and not at the table. After all, the energy of different people mixes at the table, it is a common place, and the knees are our personal space. Dolls with different purposes are made in different phases of the moon. Dolls against illnesses are made on the waning moon, so that something goes away and does not return. In order for the doll to promote fertility and wealth, it is made on the waxing moon. It is recommended not to make dolls on major holidays, as well as on Fridays and Sundays. And know that the doll is made in one go, you can not stretch the process out for several days. So, let's get started. I will show you how to make a Bereginya-Travnitsa doll, which will be the keeper of health in your home. It is somewhat different from the traditional herbalists presented on the Internet, since it does not have that wide skirt into which fragrant herbs are poured. We will place them in her bag. I also want to note that Slavic dolls have nothing to do with the black magic of Voodoo! Voodoo magic was used to cause evil, and Slavic dolls were used as a talisman against evil forces, the evil eye, damage, and of course there were play dolls for children.Create amulets with your own hands, according to our master class, a doll-herbess is made, or else a motank doll ..

Create amulets with your own hands, according to our master class, a doll travnitsa is made, or else a motank doll. Photo # 2Here I have indicated approximate dimensions, you cantake materials of other sizes that suit you. In general, initially the Slavs made bereginya dolls from twisted birch bark, most often birch (aspen was never used, our ancestors considered it the tree of death). But in modern conditions, birch bark is difficult to get, so doll makers have an unspoken rule: cardboard is a tree, so it is quite suitable as a replacement, only the cardboard tube should be without letters. We take our cardboard tube, cotton wool, a white 20 * 20 rag and a thread.Create amulets with your own hands, according to our master class, a doll-travnitsa is made, or else a Motanka doll .. Photo # 3We design the head, cover the cotton wool with fabric on top andwrap it. We try to do everything carefully to avoid unnecessary folds. Sometimes they embroider or make a cross out of threads on the face (pagans used this cross to represent the sun, which is why this symbol entered our culture so easily), and people thus gave the doll additional protection. But we will not do this.Create amulets with your own hands, according to our master class, a doll-travnitsa is made, or else a motank doll. Photo # 4One more subtlety:The winding with threads is done clockwise, in the direction of the sun, the number of turns should be equal to or a multiple of three, and the number of knots should be odd. The odd number is probably explained by the attitude of our ancestors to numbers. Odd numbers were associated with Life for them, and even numbers with Death, since in pagan beliefs Death was the opposite, mirror, second life. But as for the multiple of three number of turns of thread, this is because the number three is the meaning of the Unity of Soul, Body and Spirit in the doll and its future owner. If the body is good, the soul is joyful, the spirit is calm, then the person is quite happy. Next, take 2 white rags 7 * 7 to make the doll's chest, put a lump of cotton wool in the center of each of them and tie it at the base with a thread. A doll with breasts is a symbol of fertility, femininity, well-being.Create amulets with your own hands, according to our master class, a doll-travnitsa is made, or else a motank doll ..

In ancient times, it was believed that if someone in the household suddenly fell ill, you had to rub the contents of the Herbalist's bag between your fingers. At the same time, the aroma of fragrant medicinal herbs spread throughout the house. And the contents themselves had to be changed every 2 years.Create your own wards, according to our master class, a doll-travnitsa is made, or else a doll-motanka.
