Slavic calendar what year is it now? About the Slavic chronology and more


We decided to attract the interest of our readers and see how well our fellow readers understand Slavic holidays.
Have you heard about such a holiday, do you believe in it? After all, if you dig around, you can find different data - Slavic New Year on March 21 or September 14? We are waiting for answers!
The Slavs are a great and glorious people. They communicated with ancestors, forces of nature, spirits and other magical creatures. They knew a lot about agriculture and worshiped their Gods.

Their knowledge and experience were passed on from generation to generation, but much was lost and distorted in a new way.

The Slavic calendar is radically different from the Eastern calendar; the cycle in the Slavic calendar lasts not 12, but 16 years. Every 16th summer was called the Great.

The Year of the Hissing Snake is currently underway.

The Year of the "Hissing Snake" is about peace, the development of science and philosophy.

According to the Slavic calendar, which is based on the totemic yearbook - the Slavic horoscope of animals, 2016 will be the year of the Hissing Snake.

Our distant ancestors treated all reptiles with special reverence, because of the “magical” ability to recover inherent in this class of animals. After all, the casting and growing of a tail by a lizard, or the annual renewal of a snake’s skin was explained by the ancient Slavs as nothing other than the divine abilities of these amazing reptiles. Therefore, these creatures were sacred and often shared homes with people.

The Slavs' belief in the immortality of the Snake gradually turned it into a symbol of healing and longevity, and its inability to harm a person elevated it above other snakes, giving it the title of Great Snake Prince, and later - Tsar.

Unfortunately, new-fangled foreign holidays (February 14, Halloween, etc.) have thoroughly entered our lives, and we forget our closest ones to our souls and understandable to our consciousness.

For some reason, they began to consider Valentine's Day as their own, and we always forget the good and bright day of family and love, namely Peter and Fevronia, which is celebrated on July 8, just like the holiday of the Slavic goddess Lada - the patroness of the family, which is celebrated on May 23 .

Also on New Year’s Day, we are accustomed to checking everything with the Eastern calendar, but we don’t even remember the roots.

In total, there are sixteen animals in the Slavic calendar, which are listed below (the years when the period of this animal begins are also indicated nearby): Slavic calendar Now find out who you really are:

Dark Sokh is a pioneer, leading others, who is protected by the Higher Powers. The totem of a restless person, impetuous and proud, not stopping at the heights achieved, very often misunderstood and incomprehensible to those close to him. The less he doubts and thinks about his ideas, the more he will be able to give to this world.

Stinging Hornet - people born during this period are very active, fuss a lot and love to make noise. Hornets have strong intuition and determination. To achieve their goal, they use any means without bothering with morality. From birth, they have an excellent memory, are extremely thrifty and jealous - they will never give up theirs to anyone, and besides, they can also take away someone else’s. Leaders by nature love to put others in their place, using all their causticity and wit.

Hidden Lute are people of great strength, natural grace and the ability to find a way out of the most difficult life situations. They have cat-like habits, but despite all their external softness and relaxation, they can manifest themselves very sharply and suddenly, instantly mobilize and show their claws and fangs. Although they themselves do not like to create and maintain order, they do not forgive others for the slightest violation of it. Possessing generosity, patience and kindness of character, they will not allow even their loved ones to sit on their necks or limit their freedom. For Luke, there are only those frameworks, obligations and restrictions that he has set for himself.

Fiery Veksha is the sign of a person who has Higher protection. Those born this year are extremely dexterous and agile, they play all the time and are slightly disingenuous. They have a lively mind - they grasp everything on the fly and instantly delve into the situation, finding the best way out. They have a nervous character and are often prone to mood swings and depression. In life they rely only on themselves, so they go to work early and start a family.

Pearl Pike - people born this year are under the protection of their deceased ancestors. These are conservatives and orthodox, endowed with inner peace and confidence in their rightness, therefore in communication they are direct and frank.

The Bearded Toad is a person with natural wisdom to create harmonious relationships with the world. He knows how to appreciate what he has, is very economical, thrifty, modest and neat. A wonderful family man and hospitable host, not particularly pretentious to his surroundings. This is a conservative who does not like change, loves his comfortable “swamp”, and clearly knows what he wants from life.

Wild Boar are very fearless people, always ready to repel anyone they consider an enemy. They strive for primacy in the business that interests them. After the desired is achieved, they usually seek solitude for relaxation and fall into apathy. In their calm state, Boars are extremely intelligent and do not take futile actions. People of this type usually take a long time to ask the price and sway, after which they gain momentum and rush towards the goal, sweeping away everything in their path.

White Owl is a person who lives according to his own regime, leading a secluded lifestyle. Very suspicious, mysterious and superstitious. In a favorable environment, his talents for extrasensory perception can reveal themselves in an extraordinary way. Having found a friendly environment for his activities, the Eagle Owl is able to move mountains.

The Hissing Snake are people who have the gift of harmonizing the space around them. They have a philosophical mindset; everything secret is more important to them than the obvious. They are a little secretive, do not like to talk much, are practical, efficient and thrifty. They move towards their chosen goal persistently, but flexibly, and when unexpected obstacles arise, they change their skin like a snake.

The Crouching Fox is a people of mysterious destiny and a life full of adventures. They are dexterous, inventive, mocking, cunning, mocking, very careful and prudent - they never get into trouble, preferring to do everything quietly or on the sly.

Firemane Horse - this is the year of active and courageous, honest and diligent people. They are very talented, romantic; resilient and purposeful. Horses love travel and extreme sports, so you can very rarely find them at home, as they are always in a hurry to get somewhere.

I have always liked the Slavic calendar more. The culture of the Slavic peoples was based on harmony with the surrounding nature and animals, each animal was endowed with certain strength, abilities and knowledge, which were reflected through folk tales, songs and rituals in the astrological cycle of the Slavs.
The Slavs are a great and glorious people. They communicated with ancestors, forces of nature, spirits and other magical creatures. They knew a lot about agriculture and worshiped their Gods. Their knowledge and experience were passed on from generation to generation, but much was lost and distorted in a new way.

The Slavic calendar is radically different from the Eastern calendar; the cycle in the Slavic calendar lasts not 12, but 16 years and the year begins on March 21, that is, from the vernal equinox. Every 16th summer was called the Great. According to the Slavic calendar, 2016 will be the year of the Spiny Snake, and the real 2015 will be the year of the White Owl. Year of wisdom.

It is worth noting that the Chinese symbols of the New Year, horoscopes, attributes, etc. have become firmly established, and sometimes completely replaced their own New Year traditions and customs from the cultures of many nations. After all, for example, before 1700, the Slavic peoples celebrated the New Year according to their own calendar, had various traditions, rituals and customs for celebrating the New Year, and each year also had its own name, symbol and meaning. The cycle consisted of 16 years, unlike eastern culture, and the date of the New Year was the day of the vernal equinox, that is, March 21. Since Slavic culture celebrated the end of the cold winter and the awakening of all living things, the New Year turned into the New Summer.

The upcoming 2016 according to the Slavic calendar is the year of the Spiny Snake. The ability to quickly restore a lost part of the body, renew the skin, and other things was attributed to the snake. In Slavic culture, Uzh symbolizes intelligence and harmony, perseverance and flexibility, longevity and healing. Therefore, 2016 the Year of the Snake will patronize persistent people who have decided to start a new business, and will also help get rid of various ailments.

The Year of the Hissing Snake will begin on March 21, 2016. On this day, according to the ancient Slavic tradition, you need to pray to God and ask him to grant health and well-being not only for yourself, but also for all your family and friends. You can celebrate the New Summer the same way the Slavs greeted it: at the festive table with your family and friends, giving each other various gifts, singing songs, and dancing in circles. Here is a brief description of people born under the sign of the Hissing Snake: 1936 1952 1968 1984 2000 2016

The highest gift of people born this year is mastery of the Sacrament of World Harmony.

People of this type have a flexible, philosophical and mystical mindset that understands the frailty of Existence. They persistently but flexibly move towards their chosen goal. The secret and hidden are more important to them than the obvious.

In communication, they are somewhat secretive and untalkative; they are thrifty, practical and efficient; when unexpected obstacles arise, they are extremely defenseless, like a snake changing its skin.

Summer 7527 has arrived on the Russian Calendar.(this happened at 18 o'clock September 21, 2018“year” according to Christian calculation)

Few people know that modern “year calculation” was introduced in Rus' quite recently - in 1700.

This act was committed by Peter I, or rather the one whom. It was by Peter's decree that in the summer of 7208, according to the then current calendar, Russia abolished its native Calendar and switched to the current calendar, starting the countdown from 1700.

What is known about this?

Any calculation has a starting point from some SIGNIFICANT EVENT. For example, now 2018 YEAR (GOD - God) from the Nativity of Christ. Of course, our calendar, marked by Peter, also had a starting point.

The countdown began from the summer (year) called “STAR TEMPLE”, in which our ancestors won the Great Victory over Arimia, the land of the Dragon (present-day China), completed a long and bloody war, that is, CREATE THE WORLD. Obviously, the event was so important and significant that for 7208 years, until the reign of Peter I, Rus' lived under the sign of the Calendar, which begins its countdown from the CREATION OF THE WORLD IN THE SUMMER OF THE STAR TEMPLE, along which, at the time of this publication, there is 7527 summer.

It was possible to level this point of reference, make it abstract, and then erase it from human memory and official “history” by replacing the image of the word PEACE. Each of us knows that in the Russian language there are words that are homonyms, identical in spelling, but different in meaning. Our linguistics stubbornly ignores the explanation of the reasons for this strangeness - the origin of twin words that have different concepts. In fact, the secret is simple. Our original Initial Letter consisted of 49 letters. Among the initial letters that fell under the “reduction” and are now missing was the letter “i” (with a dot). The sound of the letters “and” “i” was almost the same, but the IMAGE of the letters was different. So the letter “I” had (and has now!) the image of UNION, UNITY, CONNECTION, . And the Letter “i” with a dot had the image of a “divine, universal ray” descending from the depths of the Universe to people. Accordingly, the word written as world- meant an alliance, an agreement, a STATE WITHOUT WAR. And the word is written as world– had the image of the universal World, the UNIVERSE. We know a common slogan in Soviet times that includes both words with different meanings: “Peace to the world!”, that is to the world universal - World without war

After the illegal seizure of power in Rus' by the pro-Western Romanov dynasty, a smooth but systematic destruction of our past began. Including chronology. First, the letter “i” in the word PEACE was replaced by the letter “i”, and “the creation of the world” gradually became associated with the creation of the Universe, and not with the establishment of peace after the war.

At the same time, on the frescoes and engravings that depicted the defeated Dragon by the Knight-Arius, the Dragon (the symbol of China-Arimia) was replaced by an abstract Serpent, and the Knight-Arius received the name George (which in Greek still means a tiller). Should we remind? that the tiller who cultivates the land is an Aryan, an Aryan? Nevertheless, St. George has remained the patron saint of farmers in most modern cultures.

The substitution of three important components of the image of the Great Victory - the word PEACE (without war) with the Universe, DRAGON (Chinese) with the rootless Serpent, and the name of the Russian Knight with the Greek George gradually turned a significant EVENT of the countdown of our chronology into an abstraction, “fantasy”, deprived of value in human memory. This allowed Peter, in the year 7208, to painlessly and without resistance replace our ancient calendar with the European one.

Everyone knows that on December 24, that is, 8 days before January 1, the entire Catholic world celebrates Christmas, the birth of the baby Jesus.

According to Jewish ritual, a Jewish boy must be circumcised strictly on the 8th day of birth. It is at this moment that he becomes involved in the agreement between the Jews and God Yahweh (Jehovah) and is included in the ranks of “God’s chosen people.” This means that the biblical character born on December 24th, the Jewish boy Jesus, is circumcised on the 8th day of birth, that is, January 1st.

Under Peter I, communication between the nobility was conducted primarily in Dutch and German, and the word God (Year), in these languages, means the word “God”.
It turns out that Peter I forced everyone to congratulate each other on the circumcision of the new Jewish god.

This joke of the “reformer” king has taken root in Russia so much that now people, without hesitation, congratulate others and themselves on the circumcision of an unknown Jewish boy, while installing Christmas trees at home - a tree that has long symbolized the path to the afterlife.

Today only Old Believers and some Internet users who are interested in the real Great Past of Rus'-Russia know about the celebration of the New Year.

However, the overwhelming mass of people who have lost their genetic memory and the original meaning of this expression continue to congratulate each other on the advent of the New Circumcised God, but not on the New Year, as it should be in Rus'.

5508 years of the worthy Past of the Belarusian, Russian and Ukrainian peoples dissolved in the new Petrine History, in which we are given the very last place among all the peoples of the world.

Obviously, many are not interested in people in Russia knowing about their native calendar. Through the celebration of the New Year's circumcision of the Lord imposed on us, they are trying to circumcise our memory and conscience, so that we become like “Ivans who do not remember kinship.” The enemy has always acted not only with weapons, but also with words, by substituting concepts, replacing symbols and images, and therefore by destroying them, trying to cut off our memory, our connection with our ancestors, and our past, for as Peter Stolypin said “A people without national identity is the manure on which other nations grow”. What else does a parasite need?

Unfortunately, newfangled foreign holidays (February 14, Halloween, etc.) have thoroughly entered our lives, and we forget our closest ones to our souls and those that are understandable to our consciousness. For some reason, they began to consider Valentine's Day as their own, but we always forget the good and bright day of family and love, namely Peter and Fevronia, which is celebrated on July 8th.

Also on New Year’s Day, we are accustomed to checking everything with the Eastern calendar, but we don’t even remember the roots. So, according to the Slavic calendar, what awaits us is Hissing Snake.

Our distant ancestors treated all reptiles with special reverence, because of the “magical” ability to recover inherent in this class of animals. After all, the casting and growing of a tail by a lizard, or the annual renewal of a snake’s skin, was explained by the ancient Slavs as nothing other than the divine abilities of these amazing reptiles. Therefore, these creatures were sacred, and often shared their homes with people.

The Slavs' faith in the immortality of the Snake gradually turned it into a symbol of healing and longevity, and the inability to harm a person elevated it above other snakes, giving it the title of Great Snake Prince, and later - Tsar.

The qualities of those born in the year of the “Hissing Snake” have the properties of their totem, such as harmonizing the space around themselves, a penchant for philosophy, they like to explore everything secret, they are not very trusting, they say little, but do more. These are practical people who know how to not only earn money, but also save.

If they have set a goal for themselves, they will move forward, even if they need to “change their skin.”

The years of the “Hissing Snake” are years of peace, the development of science and philosophy.


The Slavic horoscope was created on the basis of pagan beliefs. If all Western horoscopes are based on the position of the heavenly bodies and are divided into 12 zodiac signs, then among the ancient Slavs the basis of the year was its own cycle - Svarozhe kolo (Svarog circle), divided into 20 unequal periods. Each period was patronized by natural forces and deities, acting as conductors between man and the Universe.

Perun, Indrik or Unicorn (December 24 – January 20)

God Perun is the oldest and most majestic in the Slavic pantheon. The people of Perun are strong and courageous, they do not always inspire love, but always respect. They don't care what people say and think about them. Perun's man, directed in a positive direction, is a brave warrior and protector. The negative type is completely unbearable - he is a rowdy and brawler, a rude reveler and a boor.

In 2016, the people of Perun can conquer any peak if they do not rush and take on too much. The motto of this year should be the proverb “if you drive slower, you will go further.” Crazy energy and passion must always be directed towards a specific goal, otherwise the people of Perun become too aggressive and uncontrollable.

In personal affairs and in the family, the people of Perun this year need to remember the love and tenderness that is in their hearts. Dictatorial habits and aggression separate loved ones, although people of this sign never get divorced. Heartfelt conversations and balanced solutions to problems will strengthen their marriage and help establish mutual understanding.

Stribog or Kryshen (January 21 – February 20)

The deity of the wind, giving people born during this period flexibility of mind and high intelligence. Stribog's man can get out of any situation. Many new ideas and good undertakings are constantly born in his soul. He can be the most devoted friend, sensitive spouse and responsible business partner.

Stribog patronizes wise and cautious people, and complicates life for those who are impulsive and stumble at every step. That is why the people of Stribog, who abused their power in 2016, will face indelible shame. If people of this period strive for self-development, they will be given many useful discoveries - all thanks to the Roof, the deity who saves from freezing and gives life-giving fire.

Also this year, the people of Kryshnya will have to stand up for justice. They are loyal patriots of their homeland and are ready to defend its interests. In the family of people born at this time, difficulties are expected in 2016 due to the fact that it is difficult for them to express their emotions and feelings. A little tenderness and affection shown towards your family will benefit the relationship.

Rod (February 21 – March 20)

One of the most revered gods by the ancient Slavs is Rod, the fundamental principle of all living things. A person born under the auspices of Rod feels connected to all processes in the world. He understands and accepts any person, does not condemn anyone and is able to save truly lost souls.

In 2016, people of the Rod will be able to achieve the most incredible and difficult goals if they do this together with the team. But they will need to apply their knowledge of psychology and natural wisdom to lead and mentor subordinates and colleagues. They should do the same at home, because no one knows better than them the secret motives of human actions.

Those born under the sign of Rod are real teachers and leaders of the masses. But they do not need worldly fame; they do it at the request of their soul, and not for honors. People of Rod are capable of ardent passion and true love. They are sensual and sexy, they almost never get divorced or cheat on their other half. If fate gives them offspring in 2016, then their family will be favored by the gods for many years.

Yarilo (March 21 – April 20)

People born under the auspices of Yaril, the god of the spring sun, passion and love, have powerful energy, look at the world with wide open eyes and remain young at heart, active and active even in old age. These are true innovators and pioneers of their field, trailblazers and pioneers.

Yaril's children are excellent owners, who in 2016 will have the opportunity to fairly lead and work fruitfully. They love and hate with all their hearts. Their anger is terrible, but their love is also strong and sincere. In 2016, they can be given advice: do not be afraid to take risks, and you will overcome all difficulties. Make bold plans and work energetically to implement them. This year you can do anything!

True, there may be problems in your personal life. Yaril's children inherited too much sexual energy from their patron, so they leave behind a series of broken hearts. In 2016, you should not change partners often, otherwise you may slip past your happiness and not notice it. You should also develop the ability to give, and not just take.

Lada (April 21 – May 21)

Lada was the goddess of love, harmony and order. In her honor, the Ladodenya holiday was held, when spring and the awakening of nature to life were sung. People born under the auspices of Lada are distinguished by their good figure, good health, peacefulness and homeliness. They are hard workers with big loving hearts, honest and open. Warmth and home comfort are what is important to them.

In 2016, Lada’s children need to start improving their home. It is recommended not to skimp - a well-groomed home will attract happiness, money and other benefits to the house. You can make repairs, buy new furniture. Or you can even buy a new apartment or dacha - it all depends on the funds. And Lada’s children have a lot of artistic taste! It’s good if they decorate the house with the creations of their own hands - embroidery, paintings and figurines.

By the way, it is useful for a Lada person to work in the country. In 2016, you should also engage in self-improvement: start learning a foreign language, get a second education, and complete a driving course. You don’t have to worry about your personal life: Lada helps everyone born during this period. They do not need to be afraid of loneliness - there will always be loved ones in their lives, and their home will be full of children's laughter.

Lelya or Letnitsa (May 22 – June 2)

Lelya was the wife of the luminous god Perun. People born during the Lelya period have a highly developed intellect, a good sense of humor, a warm heart and a kind soul. They are lightning fast in thoughts and reactions, fickle and unpredictable. Strong natures, ready to protect everyone, they are very brave, honest and courageous.

In 2016, they are recommended to reduce their activity so that the team can keep up with them. Their speed makes people think of themselves as clumsy slow-witted people, and no one likes this - which means trouble can arise. And if Leli people begin to work in the usual “human” mode, then they will have many helpers and followers. This will bring them great victories in the professional field.

Since Lelya people are curious, have practical acumen and intuition, in 2016 they can safely start their own business or realize long-deferred dreams and plans - they will be favored by luck this year. On the personal front, no significant changes are expected in 2016, although Lelya’s children will definitely not spend it alone.

Kostroma (June 3 – June 12)

The deity Kostroma is the patron of the “flight” (the quickly passing beginning of summer, ensuring the future fertility of the earth). During this period, talented and eloquent people were born, with a keen sense of nature and cosmic vibrations. They are endowed with enormous oratorical and literary abilities, have good intuition, and are prone to mysticism.

In 2016, the children of Kostroma need to take care of the future and take decisive steps, because the best results can be achieved by gaining strength. This year you need to solve business issues, and not aimlessly dream. Creative plans must also have a material basis. You should definitely work on your own image so that in all projects people see the bright personality of their author.

In 2016, there is no need to be distracted by numerous affairs and flirting. It is better to stabilize the relationship with the partner you already have. And if it’s not there, then you shouldn’t waste your energy on random people. Issues of personal happiness are not the main ones this year, but attention should be paid to health. In the Year of the Monkey you need to be very careful - the children of Kostroma are haunted by mystical accidents.

Dodola or Share (June 13 – June 21)

Dodola patronized young people and their secrets. The people of Dodola remain young and naive all their lives. Lazy and unhurried, they come into the world for relaxation and contemplation, make no effort to achieve goals and go with the flow, believing that life itself will give them everything. And the most amazing thing is that Doli people are very lucky. Their life is a full cup!

In 2016, it’s time for Doli’s children to finally, under the guidance of an experienced mentor, begin to create a material base for the future. Moreover, this year they will be lucky. The luck of Dodol people will greatly help material enrichment and career growth - they are like a talisman of happiness for any team. And good relations with management and colleagues will only improve the image of the lucky ones.

In their personal lives in 2016, people of this sign need to follow the generally accepted rules of human relationships. Not everyone agrees to live by the rules of free love - this is especially true for family relationships. Remember: fleeting romances emasculate feelings and scare away people who are committed to serious and long-term relationships.

Veles or Kolyada (June 22 – July 22)

Veles is one of the main gods of the ancient Slavs. He set in motion the world created by Rod and Svarog, and determined the laws of its existence. People of Veles have a penchant for magic and everything transcendental. They often live in their own world, away from reality, constantly feeling their deep connection with nature. They are very affectionate, love their home, family and friends.

In 2016, the people of Veles have an excellent chance - they must use their intellectual abilities to resolve issues of promotion and improvement of material well-being. With the support of like-minded people, they will be able to make many long-deferred dreams come true. This year the main thing is not to stop there and improve yourself.

It is important to act in all directions that will help make your life and the lives of those around you more harmonious, colorful and interesting. There may be disappointments in your personal life in 2016. But this is the other side of the coin - the children of Veles tend to idealize their life partner, so they perceive the negative character traits of a loved one as a tragedy. They need to learn to be more tolerant.

Kupalo (July 7)

Within the Veles period there is a special day - Kupalo. Children born on Kupala Day received from the highest deities a sign of the continuation of the dynasty. These are very gentle, affectionate and simple people, in whose lives mysticism plays an important role. They have a deep philosophical outlook on life, and their rich inner world makes them interesting people.

The Kupala Man will be happy in 2016 if he honors and respects the laws of nature. He should spread his love of love to his family, and not flirt left and right. The development of natural talents in 2016 will bring not only the joy of self-realization, but also material benefits. People of this sign can and should take risks, even if everyone around convinces them that the business will not work out. This year is a good one!

Love for children and spouse will be a lifeline for those who are tired or sad. And traveling to different cities and countries is a necessity for Kupala children. If you take a trip with your family, it will charge you with new creative ideas and powerful energy for the whole year.

Dazhdbog or Vyshen (July 23 – August 23)

The name of this god comes from the words “give” and “share”. He patronized bountiful harvests, magnificent weddings and prosperity. The people of Dazhdbog are brilliant, majestic, proud and self-sufficient. Possessing intelligence and prudence, they do not follow anyone’s lead, they themselves come up with strategies and tactics for achieving success, lead the process and invariably achieve their goals.

In 2016, it is important for the children of Dazhdbog to realize their ambitions in the professional sphere, otherwise they will become real tyrants.

If they do not demand monetary compensation for this, they will be able to create a platform for themselves for rapid career growth. It is the team that will help them get rid of self-doubt and depressive moods. Alas, the big problem for the people of Kitovras will be their own health, which by nature is not particularly strong.

They need to harden themselves, rest often, and communicate with nature and animals. Trips and travel will help restore energy. Studying foreign cultures and languages ​​can become a favorite profession and a source of good income for representatives of this sign. And the lonely children of Kitovras in 2016 need to try to start a family, because alone they waste away and get sick.

The Slavs are a great and glorious people. They communicated with ancestors, forces of nature, spirits and other magical creatures. They knew a lot about agriculture and worshiped their Gods.
Their knowledge and experience were passed on from generation to generation, but much was lost and distorted in a new way.

The Slavic calendar is radically different from the Eastern calendar; the cycle in the Slavic calendar lasts not 12, but 16 years and the year begins on March 21, that is, from the vernal equinox. Every 16th summer was called the Great.

2016 according to the Slavic calendar will be the year Spiny Snake, and the real year 2015 is the year of the White Owl. Year of wisdom.

Here is a brief description of people born under the sign of the Hissing Snake:

The qualities of those born in the year of the “Hissing Snake” have their own properties, such as harmonization of the space around them, a penchant for philosophy, they like to explore everything secret, they are not very trusting, they say little, but do more. These are practical people who know how to not only earn money, but also save.

If they have set a goal for themselves, they will move forward, even if they need to “change their skin.”

The Year of the “Hissing Snake” is about peace, the development of science and philosophy.

According to the Slavic calendar, which is based on the totemic year of donkeys - the Slavic horoscope of animals, 2016 will be the year of the Hissing Snake.

The main features of the ancient calendar are:

  • cycle consisting of 16 years;
  • The New Year began on the day of the vernal equinox - March 21
Our distant ancestors treated all reptiles with special reverence, because of the “magical” ability to recover inherent in this class of animals. After all, the casting and growing of a tail by a lizard, or the annual renewal of a snake’s skin was explained by the ancient Slavs as nothing other than the divine abilities of these amazing reptiles. Therefore, these creatures were sacred and often shared their homes with people.

The Slavs' belief in the immortality of the Snake gradually turned it into a symbol of healing and longevity, and its inability to harm a person elevated it above other snakes, giving it the title of Great Snake Prince, and later - Tsar.


Unfortunately, new-fangled foreign holidays (February 14, Halloween, etc.) have thoroughly entered our lives, and we forget our closest ones to our souls and understandable to our consciousness.

For some reason, they began to consider Valentine's Day as their own, and we always forget the good and bright day of family and love, namely Peter and Fevronia, which is celebrated on July 8, just like the holiday of the Slavic goddess Lada - the patroness of the family, which is celebrated on May 23 .

Also on New Year’s Day, we are accustomed to checking everything with the Eastern calendar, but we don’t even remember the roots.

So, according to the Slavic calendar, the Hissing Snake is waiting for us.
