What does the Slavic swastika mean? Slavic swastika - Slavic culture.

Message quote The swastika is the oldest Slavic symbol

character "卐" or "卍", Skt.. स्वस्तिक from स्वस्ति svasti- greeting, wish of good luck, prosperity) - a cross with curved ends (“rotating”), directed either clockwise or counterclockwise. - THE SWASTIKA HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH FASCISM UNTIL 1941

The Swastika was popular among the Slavic peoples, undoubtedly the most prosperous in ancient world. The possession of the most extensive and rich lands and a numerous population are the heritage of this prosperity. The swastika accompanied the Slavs from the first to the last day of their lives, emblazoned on amulets, clothing, cradles, religious objects and buildings, weapons, banners, coats of arms, etc. It takes its form from the most global, most impressive human substance - cosmic, copying the profile of galaxies (our galaxy is named Swati), comets and the trajectory of the polar constellation - Ursa Minor.

Swastika reflects main view movement in the Universe - rotational with its derivative - translational, capable of symbolizing any philosophical categories and, most importantly - don't let yourself be offended .

Therefore, the Slavs used at least 144 varieties of Swastika. Here are some of them followed by brief description:

The variety of Swastikas is especially great in the Russian North. In addition to the natural Slavic predisposition to all-round purity, his craving for the swastika was strengthened by geographical position. The Swastika most accurately depicts the northern sun rolling along the horizon. No wonder the elderly people of the Russian North were especially perplexed about the persecution of Swastika, which began before the Great Patriotic War. Here are some examples of the use of Swastikas in the ornaments of the Russian North:

The swastika, of course, is a weapon, but one should not give up the weapon because it ended up in the hands of the enemy(?), especially since they turned out to be the genetic brothers of the Slavic peoples. And oblivion of the most vital symbol - the Swastika - leads to oblivion of the very life principle:practice is the criterion of Truth.

The swastika symbol is a cross with curved ends directed clockwise or counterclockwise. As a rule, now all Swastika symbols are called in one word - SWASTIKA, which is fundamentally wrong, because every Swastika symbol in ancient times had its own name, Protective Power and figurative meaning.

During archaeological excavations, Swastika symbols were most often found on various details of architecture, weapons, clothing, and household utensils of many peoples of Eurasia. Swastika symbolism is found everywhere in ornamentation as sign of Light, Sun, Life. The oldest archaeological artifacts depicting the swastika date back to approximately 10-15 millennium BC. According to archaeological excavations, the richest territory in the use of the swastika, both a religious and cultural symbol, is Russia - neither Europe nor India can compare with Russia in the abundance of swastika symbols covering Russian weapons, banners, national costume, houses, everyday items and temples. Excavations of ancient mounds and settlements speak for themselves - many ancient Slavic settlements had a clear form of Swastika, oriented to the four cardinal directions. Swastika symbols denoted calendar signs back in the days of the Great Scythian Kingdom ( depicts a vessel from the Scythian Kingdom of 3-4 thousand BC.)

The swastika and Swastika symbols were the main and, one might even say, almost the only elements of the ancient pre-Slavic ornaments. But this does not mean at all that the Slavs and Aryans were bad artists. Firstly, there were a lot of varieties of images of Swastika symbols. Secondly, in ancient times, not a single pattern was applied just like that; each element of the pattern corresponded to a certain cult or protective (amulet) meaning.

But not only the Aryans and Slavs believed in magical power this pattern. This symbol was found on clay vessels from Samarra (the territory of modern Iraq), which date back to the 5th millennium BC. Swastika symbols in levorotatory and dextrorotatory forms are found in the pre-Aryan culture of Mohenjo-Daro (Indus River basin) and ancient China around 2000 BC. In Northeast Africa, archaeologists have found a funerary stele from the kingdom of Meroz, which existed in the 2nd-3rd centuries AD. The fresco on the stele depicts a woman entering the afterlife; a Swastika is emblazoned on the clothes of the deceased. The rotating cross adorns golden weights for scales that belonged to the inhabitants of Ashanta (Ghana), and clay utensils of the ancient Indians, beautiful carpets woven by the Persians and Celts.

Swastika in Beliefs and Religions

Swastika symbolism was a protective symbol among almost all peoples in Europe and Asia: among the Slavs, Germans, Pomors, Skalvi, Curonians, Scythians, Sarmatians, Mordovians, Udmurts, Bashkirs, Chuvash, Indians, Icelanders, Scots and many other peoples.

In many ancient Beliefs and religions, the Swastika is the most important and brightest cult symbol. Thus, in ancient Indian philosophy and Buddhism(pic. left: Buddha's Foot) The swastika is a symbol of the eternal cycle of the universe, a symbol of the Buddha's Law, to which all things are subject. (Dictionary “Buddhism”, M., “Republic”, 1992); V Tibetan Lamaism The swastika is a protective symbol, a symbol of happiness and a talisman. In India and Tibet, the Swastika is depicted everywhere: on the gates of temples, on every residential building, on the fabrics in which all sacred texts are wrapped, on funeral covers.

Lama Beru-Kinze-Rimpoche, in our time one of the greatest teachers of official Buddhism. The photograph shows the ritual of his creation of a ritual mandala, that is, pure space, in Moscow in 1993. In the foreground of the photograph is a thangka, a sacred image drawn on cloth, depicting the Divine space of the mandala. At the corners are Swastika symbols protecting the sacred Divine space.

As a religious symbol (!!!), the swastika has always been used by followers Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism in the East, Druids of Ireland, Scotland, Scandinavia, representatives Natural-religious denominations Europe and America in the West.

On the left is Ganesha, the son of God Shiva, a God from the Hindu Vedic pantheon, his face illuminated by two Swastika symbols.
On the right is a Mystic Sacred diagram taken from a Jain prayer book. In the center of the diagram, we can also see the Swastika.

In Russia, Swastika symbols and elements are found among supporters of the Ancient Tribal and Vedic cults, as well as among the Orthodox Old Believers-Ynglings, professing the Faith of the First Ancestors - Ingliism, in the Slavic and Aryan communities of the Ancestral Circle and, wherever you think, among Christians…

Swastika on the shield of Prophetic Oleg

For many, many millennia, the Slavs used the Swastika symbol. Our Ancestors depicted this symbol on weapons, banners, clothing, and on household and religious objects. Everyone knows that the Prophetic Oleg nailed his shield to the gates of Constantinople (Constantinople), but few of the modern generation know what was depicted on the shield. However, descriptions of the symbolism of his shield and armor can be found in historical chronicles. Prophetic people, i.e., possessing the Gift of Spiritual Foresight and knowing the Ancient Wisdom that the Gods and Ancestors left to people, were endowed by the Priests with various symbols. One of these most notable people in history was the Slavic prince - Prophetic Oleg. In addition to being a prince and an excellent military strategist, he was also a Priest of High Initiation. The symbolism that was depicted on his clothes, weapons, armor and princely banner tells about this in all detailed images.
Fire Swastika(symbolizing the land of the Ancestors) in the center of the nine-pointed Star of England (symbol of the Faith of the First Ancestors) was surrounded by the Great Kolo (Circle of Patron Gods), which emitted eight rays Spiritual Light(eighth degree of Priestly initiation) to the Svarog Circle. All this symbolism spoke of enormous spiritual and physical strength, which is directed to the defense of the Motherland and the Holy Faith. When the Prophetic Oleg nailed his shield with such symbolism to the gates of Constantinople, he wanted to figuratively, clearly show the insidious and two-faced Byzantines what another Slavic prince Alexander Yaroslavovich (Nevsky) would later explain to the Teutonic knights in words: “ Whoever comes to us with a sword will die by the sword! On this stood, stands, and will stand the Russian Land!»

Swastika on money and in the Army

Under Tsar Peter I, the walls of his country residence were decorated with swastika patterns. The ceiling of the throne room in the Hermitage is also covered with these sacred symbols.

IN late XIX, early twentieth century, among the upper classes of European states in Western and Eastern Europe, as well as in Russia, Swastika(left) has become the most common and even fashionable symbol. This was influenced by the “Secret Doctrine” of H.P. Blavatsky and her Theosophical Society; The occult-mystical teachings of Guido von List, the German knightly Order of Thule and other spiritualist circles.

The common people, both in Europe and Asia, have used Swastika ornaments in everyday life for thousands of years, and only at the beginning of this century, interest in Swastika symbols appeared among those in power.

In the young Soviet Russia sleeve patches Since 1918, the soldiers of the Red Army of the South-Eastern Front were decorated with a swastika, with the abbreviation R.S.F.S.R. inside. For example: the badge for command and administrative personnel was embroidered in gold and silver, but for the Red Army soldiers it was stenciled.

After the overthrow of the autocracy in Russia, the Swastika ornament appears on new banknotes of the Provisional Government, and after the coup of October 26, 1917, on Bolshevik banknotes.

Now few people know that the matrices of the 250 ruble banknote, with the image of the Swastika symbol - Kolovrat against the background of a double-headed eagle, were made according to a special order and sketches of the last Russian Tsar - Nicholas II.

Beginning in 1918, the Bolsheviks introduced new banknotes in denominations of 1000, 5000 and 10000 rubles, on which not one Kolovrat was depicted, but three. Two smaller Kolovrat in the side ties are intertwined with large numbers 1000 and a large Kolovrat in the middle.

Money with the Swastika-Kolovrat was printed by the Bolsheviks and was in use until 1923, and only after the formation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics were they taken out of circulation.

In national: Russian, Ukrainian and Belarusian costumes, on sundresses, towels and other things, Swastika symbolism was the main and, practically, the only one of the existing ancient amulets and ornaments, until the first half of the twentieth century.

Our ancestors loved to gather on the outskirts of the village one summer evening and listen to the lingering chants of dance... a swastika. There was an analogue of the symbol in Russian dance culture - the Kolovrat dance. At the festival of Perun, the Slavs drove, and still drive, round dances around two burning swastikas: “Fasha” and “Agni” laid out on the ground.

Swastika in Christianity

“Kolovrat” richly decorated churches in the Russian lands; it shone brightly on the sacred objects of the Ancient Solar Cult of the Ancestors; and also on the white robes of the Priests of the Old Faith. And even on the robes of Christian clergy in the 9th-16th centuries. Swastika symbols were depicted. They decorated the Images and Kummiras of the Gods, frescoes, walls, icons, etc.

For example, on the fresco depicting Christ Pantocrator - the Pantocrator, in the St. Sophia Cathedral of the Novgorod Kremlin, the so-called left and right Swastikas with short curved rays, and correctly “Charovrat” and “Salting” are placed directly on the chest of the Christian God, as symbols of the beginning and end of all things.

At the saint's rite in the St. Sophia Cathedral of the city of Kyiv, in the oldest Christian church built on the Russian land by Yaroslav the Wise, belts are depicted in which alternate: "Swastika", "Suasti" and straight Crosses. Christian theologians in the Middle Ages commented on this painting in the following way: “Swastika” symbolizes the first coming to the World of the Son of God Jesus Christ to save people from their sins; then the straight Cross - his earthly path, ending with suffering on Golgotha; and finally, the left Swastika - “Suasti”, symbolizes the resurrection of Jesus Christ and his second coming to Earth in Power and Glory.

In Moscow, in the Kolomna Church, the Beheading of John the Baptist, on the day of Tsar Nicholas II’s abdication from the throne, was discovered in the basement of the temple icon "Our Lady of Sovereign"(fragment on the left) on the headdress of the Christian Mother of God there is a Swastika Amulet symbol - “Fache”.

Many legends and rumors were invented about this ancient icon, for example: allegedly on the personal order of I.V. Stalin, a prayer service and religious procession were held on the front line, and thanks to this, the troops of the Third Reich did not take Moscow. Totally absurd. German troops did not enter Moscow for a completely different reason. Their road to Moscow was blocked by the people's militia and divisions of Siberians, filled with Spiritual Strength and Faith in Victory, and not by severe frosts, the leading force of the party and government, or some kind of icon. The Siberians not only repulsed all enemy attacks, but also went on the offensive and won the war, because the ancient principle lives in their hearts: “Whoever comes to us with a sword will die by the sword.”

In medieval Christianity, the Swastika also symbolized Fire and Wind.- the elements that embody the Holy Spirit. If the Swastika, even in Christianity, was truly considered a divine sign, then only unreasonable people can say that the Swastika is a symbol of fascism!
* For reference: Fascism in Europe existed only in Italy and Spain. And the fascists of these states did not have Swastika symbols. Used the swastika as party and state symbols Hitler's Germany, which was not fascist, as it is interpreted now, but National Socialist. For those who doubt, read the article by I.V. Stalin "Hands off Socialist Germany." This article was published in the newspapers Pravda and Izvestia in the 30s.

Swastika as a talisman

Swatika was believed to be a talisman that “attracts” good luck and happiness. On Ancient Rus' It was believed that if you draw Kolovrat on your palm, you will definitely be lucky. Even modern students draw Swastikas on their palms before exams. Swastikas were also painted on the walls of houses so that happiness would reign there, in Russia, Siberia, and India.

In the Ipatiev House, where the family of the last Russian Emperor Nicholas II was shot, Empress Alexandra Feodorovna painted all the walls with this divine symbol, but the Swastika did not help the Romanovs against the atheists; this dynasty did too much evil on Russian soil.

Nowadays, philosophers, dowsers and psychics offer build city blocks in the form of Swastikas- such configurations should generate positive energy, by the way, these conclusions have already been confirmed by modern science.

Origin of the word "Swastika"

The generally accepted name of the Solar symbol - Swastika, according to one version, comes from the Sanskrit word Suasti. Su- beautiful, kind, and asti- to be, that is, “Be good!”, or in our opinion, “All the best!” According to another version, this word has Old Slavic origin, which is more probable (which is confirmed by the archives of the Old Russian Ynglistic Church of the Orthodox Old Believers-Ynglings), since it is known that the Swastika symbolism in various variations, and its name, was brought to India, Tibet, China, and Europe by the ancient Aryans and Slavs. Tibetans and Indians still claim that the Swastika, this universal symbol of prosperity and happiness, was brought to them from the high northern mountains (Himalayas) by the White Teachers.

In ancient times, when our Ancestors used the X'Aryan Runes, the word Swastika ( see left) translated as Who Came from Heaven. Since Runa NVA meant Heaven (hence Svarog - Heavenly God), WITH— Rune of direction; Rune TIKA[last two runes] - movement, coming, flow, running. Our children still pronounce the word tick, i.e. to run, and we meet it in the words Arctic, Antarctic, mysticism, etc.

Ancient Vedic sources tell us that even our galaxy has the shape of a Swastika, and our Yarila-Sun system is located in one of the arms of this Heavenly Swastika. And since we are in the galactic sleeve, our entire galaxy, its ancient name Swastikas are perceived by us as Perun's Way or the Milky Way.

The ancient names of Swastika symbols in Russia are mainly preserved in the everyday life of Orthodox Old Believers-Yinglings and Righteous Old Believers-schismatics. In the East, among the followers of the Vedic Faith, where the Ancient Wisdom is recorded in scriptures in ancient languages: and Kh’Aryan. In Kh'Aryan writing they use Runes in the form of Swastika(see text on the left).

Sanskrit, more correctly Samskryt(Samskrita), i.e. An independent secretive, used by modern Indians, originated from the ancient language of the Aryans and Slavs, it was created as a simplified version of the X'Aryan Karuna, for the preservation of the Ancient Vedas by the inhabitants of Dravidia (ancient India), and therefore ambiguous interpretations of the origin of the word “Swastika” are now possible, but after reading The materials presented in this article, an intelligent person, whose consciousness has not yet been completely filled with false stereotypes, will be convinced of the undoubted ancient Slavic and ancient Aryan, which is actually the same thing, origin of this word.

If in almost all foreign languages various designs of the Solar Cross with curved rays are called by one word Swastika - “Swastika”, then in the Russian language for various variants of Swastika symbols there existed and still exist 144 (!!!) titles, which also speaks about the country of origin of this Solar symbol. For example: Swastika, Kolovrat, Posolon, Holy Gift, Svasti, Svaor, Svaor-Solntsevrat, Agni, Fash, Mara; Inglia, Solar Cross, Solard, Vedara, Light Flyer, Fern Flower, Perunov Color, Swati, Race, Godman, Svarozhich, Yarovrat, Odolen-Grass, Rodimich, Charovrat etc. Among the Slavs, depending on the color, length, direction of the curved ends of the Solar Cross, this symbol was called differently and had different figurative and protective meanings (see).

Swastika Runes

Various variations of Swastika symbols, with no less different meanings, are found not only in cult and protective symbols, but also in the form of Runes, which, like letters in ancient times, had their own figurative meaning. So, for example, in the ancient Kh'Aryan Karuna, i.e. In the runic alphabet, there were four runes depicting Swastika elements.

Runa Fash– had a figurative meaning: a powerful, directed, destructive Fire flow (thermonuclear fire)…
Rune Agni– had figurative meanings: the Sacred Fire of the hearth, as well as the Sacred Fire of Life located in the human body and other meanings...
Rune Mara– had a figurative meaning: the Ice Flame protecting the Peace of the Universe. The rune of transition from the World of Revealing to the World of Light Navi (Glory), incarnation in the New Life... Symbol of Winter and Sleep.
Rune England– had the figurative meaning of the Primary Fire of Creation of the Universe, from this Fire many different Universes and various forms of Life appeared...

Swastika symbols carry a huge secret meaning. They contain enormous Wisdom. Each Swastika symbol reveals to us a Great picture of the universe. Ancient Slavic-Aryan Wisdom says that our galaxy is shaped like a Swastika and is called SVATI, and the Yarila-Sun system, in which our Midgard-Earth makes its way, is located in one of the branches of this Heavenly Swastika.

Knowledge of Ancient Wisdom does not accept a stereotypical approach. The study of ancient symbols, Runic writings and ancient Traditions must be approached with an open heart and a pure Soul. Not for profit, but for knowledge!

Is the swastika a fascist symbol?

Swastika symbols in Russia were used not only by the Bolsheviks and Mensheviks for political purposes; much earlier than them, representatives of the Black Hundred began to use the Swastika. Now, Swastika symbols are used by Russian National Unity. Knowledgeable person never says that the Swastika is a German or fascist symbol. Only foolish and ignorant people say this, because they reject what they are not able to understand and know, and also try to pass off what they want as reality. But if ignorant people reject a symbol or information, it still does not mean that the symbol or information does not exist. Denial or distortion of the truth to please some disrupts the harmonious development of others. Even the ancient symbol of the Greatness of the Fertility of the Mother of the Raw Earth, called in ancient times - SOLARD (see above), and now used by the Russian National Unity, is considered by some incompetent people to be German-fascist symbols, a symbol that appeared many hundreds of thousands of years before the emergence of German National Socialism. At the same time, it does not even take into account the fact that SOLARD in the Russian National Unity is combined with the eight-pointed Star of Lada-Virgin Mary (image 2), where the Divine Forces (Golden Field), the Forces of the Primary Fire (red), the Heavenly Forces (blue) and the Forces of Nature (green) came together. The only difference between the original Symbol of Mother Nature and the sign that uses social movement“Russian National Unity” is the multi-color of the Initial Symbol of Mother Nature and the two-color of the representatives of the Russian National Unity.

Swastika – feather grass, hare, horse...

U ordinary people Swastika symbols had their own names. In the villages Ryazan province she was called " feather grass" - the embodiment of the Wind; on Pechora " hare“- here the graphic symbol was perceived as a piece of Sunlight, a ray, a sunbeam; in some places the Solar Cross was called “ horse", "horse shank" (horse head), because a long time ago the horse was considered a symbol of the Sun and Wind; were called Swastika-Solarniks and “ Ognivtsy", again, in honor of Yarila the Sun. The people very correctly felt both the Fiery, Flaming Nature of the symbol (Sun) and its Spiritual essence (Wind).

The oldest master of Khokhloma painting, Stepan Pavlovich Veselov (1903-1993) from the village of Mogushino, Nizhny Novgorod region, observing traditions, painted the Swastika on wooden plates and bowls, calling it “ saffron milk cap“, the Sun, and explained: “It’s the wind that shakes and moves the blade of grass.” In the above fragments you can see Swastika symbols even on such household appliances used by Russian people as a spinning wheel and a cutting board.

In the villages, to this day, on holidays, women wear elegant sundresses and shirts, and men wear blouses embroidered with swastika symbols various shapes. They bake lush loaves and sweet cookies, decorated on top with Kolovrat, Posolon, Solstice and other swastika patterns.

Prohibition of the use of Swastikas

As mentioned earlier, before the onset of the second half of the 20th century, the main and almost the only patterns and symbols that existed in Slavic embroidery were Swastika ornaments. But the enemies of the Aryans and Slavs in the second half of the 20th century, they began to decisively eradicate this Solar symbol, and they eradicated it in the same way as they had previously eradicated: the ancient folk Slavic and Aryan; Ancient Faith and Folk Traditions; The true History, undistorted by the rulers, and the long-suffering Slavic People themselves, the bearer of the ancient Slavic-Aryan Culture.

And even now, in the government and locally, many officials are trying to ban any types of rotating Solar crosses - in many ways the same people, or their descendants, but using different pretexts: if earlier this was done under the pretext of class struggle and anti-Soviet conspiracies, then now they are opponents of everything Slavic and Aryan, called fascist symbols and Russian chauvinism.

For those who are not indifferent to ancient Culture, there are several (a very small number of pictures, due to the limitation of the article’s volume) typical patterns in Slavic embroidery; in all enlarged fragments you can see the Swastika symbols and ornaments for yourself.

The use of swastika symbols in ornaments in the Slavic lands is simply innumerable. Academician B.A. Rybakov called the Solar symbol - Kolovrat, a connecting “link between the Paleolithic, where it first appeared, and modern ethnography, which provides countless examples of swastika patterns in fabrics, embroidery and weaving.”

But after the Second World War, in which Russia, as well as all Slavic and Aryan peoples, suffered huge losses, the enemies of the Aryan and Slavic Culture began to equate fascism with the Swastika. At the same time, they completely forgot (?!) that fascism, as a political and state system in Europe, existed only in Italy and Spain, where the Swastika symbol was not used. Swastika as party and state symbol was adopted only in National Socialist Germany, called at that time the Third Reich.

The Slavs used this Solar sign throughout their entire existence (according to the latest scientific data, this is at least 15 thousand years), and the President of the Third Reich, Adolf Hitler, for only about 25 years. The flow of lies and fabrications regarding the Swastika has filled the cup of absurdity. "Teachers" in modern schools, lyceums and gymnasiums in Russia, teach children complete nonsense that the Swastika and any Swastika symbol are German fascist crosses, composed of four letters “G”, denoting the first letters of the leaders of Nazi Germany: Hitler, Himmler, Goering and Goebbels (sometimes it is replaced Hess). Listening to such “teachers”, one might think that Germany during the time of Adolf Hitler used exclusively the Russian alphabet, and not at all the Latin script and the German Runic. Is there at least one Russian letter “G” in the German surnames: HITLER, HIMMLER, GERING, GEBELS (HESS) - no! But the flow of lies does not stop.

Swastika patterns and elements are used by peoples, which has been confirmed by archaeological scientists over the past 5-6 thousand years. And now, out of ignorance, people who have been trained by Soviet “teachers” are wary and sometimes even aggressive towards a person wearing ancient Slavic amulets or mittens with the image of Swastika symbols, a sundress or a shirt with Swastika embroidery. It was not for nothing that ancient thinkers said: “ Human development is hampered by two evils: ignorance and ignorance." Our Ancestors were knowledgeable and in charge, and therefore used various Swastika elements and ornaments in everyday life, considering them symbols of Yarila the Sun, Life, Happiness and Prosperity.

Only narrow-minded and ignorant people can denigrate everything pure, bright and good that remains among the Slavic and Aryan peoples. Let's not be like them! Do not paint over Swastika symbols in ancient Slavic Temples and Christian churches, on the Kumirs of the Light Gods and the Images of the Many-Wise Ancestors, as well as on the oldest Christian icons of the Mother of God and Christ. Do not destroy, at the whim of the ignorant and Slav-haters, the so-called “Soviet staircase”, and the ceilings of the Hermitage, or the domes of the Moscow St. Basil’s Cathedral, just because various versions of the Swastika have been painted on them for hundreds of years.

One generation replaces another, they collapse government systems and regimes, but until the People remember their ancient roots, honor the traditions of their Great Ancestors, preserve their Ancient culture and symbols, until that time the People are ALIVE and will LIVE!

Some of the most controversial symbols in history are the swastikas of the Slavs. Thanks to the events of World War II, they are now associated with violence. Contrary to this, the swastika has a very ancient origin, most interesting story and multiple meanings.

Origin

Now it is very difficult to name the time when such a mysterious symbol was born, but there is a lot of evidence that it was used long before the emergence of European states. Relics of the Ancient East and Egypt are decorated with similar signs in various variations and carry an exclusively positive meaning. The Slavic Vedas also say that this symbol is hundreds and even a thousand years old. On the statue of the Egyptian mother goddess Isis, holding her child, the god Horus, in her arms, there is an image of a swastika; many other statues related not only to Egyptian culture are marked with this sign. Why is it believed that these are the swastikas of the Slavs, since they were also used by other peoples? Many have seen more than once how Russian, Ukrainian and They look decorated with rich embroidery, but rarely will anyone look at the intricate patterns, and they consist mainly of intertwined swastikas. It is very unfair that now this sign is associated with Nazism and, moreover, is prohibited by law. Before condemning, it is necessary to understand what it really means

Meaning

The swastika is a collective meaning for all solar symbols directly related to the Sun, its energy and the influence of this energy on people. The root of the word (“sva”) precisely indicates this connection. There is such a thing as svarga. This is the divine heavenly world, the domain of the god Svarog, one of the most powerful in the pantheon. The infamous symbol is actually called Kolovrat. It was one of the most common in Rus'. It was they who decorated the entrance to the house, using it as a talisman against evil forces. The reverse of it, as can be seen from the direction of rotation, is called England. It denotes divine purity and the beginning of life of all things. As you can see, the swastikas of the Slavs do not convey anything negative. There are more than a hundred different versions of solar symbols, and almost all of them were used both as amulets and amulets attracting good luck, prosperity and world. Many have not four, but five or more rays (straight or branched). For example, another recognizable symbol - Gromovik and Thunderstorm - have six rays and they were used by our ancestors to control nature, namely the weather. The swastika of the Slavs helped in many matters.

As mentioned above, very often the sleeves and collars of shirts were decorated with swastika embroidery, but this pattern was applied not only for the sake of beauty. It had the meaning of a talisman, because they believed that it was through the holes in clothes that an evil spirit could penetrate, so a talisman was applied to them to protect the owner. Embroideries could also serve as an amulet; in addition, the latter were made of steel, gold, silver, and copper. They were made in the form of pendants, earrings, rings, and bracelets. Slavic swastikas were painted on the walls and doors of houses, and craftswomen also wove carpets, blankets and belts, decorating them with the same symbols. Sometimes the color could determine what exactly a person asks and from which god.

A law was passed in the Russian Federation:
Article 20.3. Federal Law of July 25, 2002 N 112-FZ Propaganda and public display of Nazi paraphernalia or symbols
<Пропаганда и публичное демонстрирование нацистской атрибутики или символики либо атрибутики или символики, сходных с нацистской атрибутикой или символикой до степени смешения, — влечет наложение административного штрафа в размере от пяти до десяти минимальных размеров оплаты труда с конфискацией нацистской или иной указанной атрибутики или символики либо административный арест на срок до пятнадцати суток с конфискацией нацистской или иной указанной атрибутики или символики.>

As we can see, there is no indication in the law about the use Swastika symbols, so why do law enforcement agencies sign it under this law. All this happens due to a simple ignorance of one’s own history and one’s own language.

Let's understand the terminology gradually.

First, let's look at the term Nazism:
National Socialism (German Nationalsozialismus, abbreviated Nazism) - official political ideology Third Reich.
Translating the essence of the title: Carrying out socially oriented changes for development, (although not always) within one nation. Or abbreviated as Change of Nation - Nazism.
This system existed in Germany from 1933 to 1945.
Unfortunately, our politicians did not study history at all, otherwise they would have known that from 1917 to 1980, the Socialist system, which was called International Socialism, was officially adopted in our country. What is translated: Carrying out socially oriented changes for development, (although not always) within one multinational people. Or abbreviated as International Change of the Nation - Internationalism.
For ease of comparison, I will also give the Latin form of recording these two regimes, Nationalsozialismus and InterNationalsozialismus
In other words, you and I, ladies and gentlemen, were exactly the same Nazis as the inhabitants of Germany.
Accordingly, according to this law, all symbols are prohibited former USSR and modern Russia.

And besides, I will give some statistical data. During the Second World War, more than 20 million people died in Russia. This is a clear reason to have a negative attitude towards the Political regime of Germany in the 30s. During the 1918 revolution in Russia (during repressions), more than 60 million people died. In my opinion, the reason for a negative attitude towards the Soviet regime is 3 times greater. But at the same time, the Swastika symbol, which was used by the Nazis, is banned in the Russian Federation, and the Bolshevik symbols “Red Star” and “Hammer and Sickle” are symbols of national heritage. In my opinion, this is a clear injustice.
I deliberately do not use the term Fascism in relation to Nazi Germany, because this is another, very important misconception. There never was and never could have been fascism in Germany. It flourished in Italy, France, Belgium, Poland, Great Britain, but not in Germany.
Fascism (Italian fascismo from fascio “bundle, bundle, association”) - as a political science term, is a general name for specific far-right political movements, their ideology, as well as the dictatorial-type political regimes they lead.
In a narrower historical sense, fascism is understood as mass political movement, which existed in Italy in the 1920s - early 1940s under the leadership of B. Mussolini.
This can be simply confirmed by the fact that fascism implies a cohesive unification of the church and statehood into one body or board, and in Nationalist Germany the church and the state were separated and oppressed in every possible way.

By the way, Symbol of Fascism - This is not a swastika, but 8 arrows tied with a ribbon ( Fashina - bun).
In general, we have more or less figured out the terminology, now let’s move on to the Swastika symbol itself.

Let's consider the Etymology of the word Swastika, but based on the original source of the language, and not, as everyone is used to, based on the roots of the Sanskrit language. In Sanskrit the translation is also very favorable, but we will look for the essence, and not adjust what is convenient to the truth.
Swastika consists of two words and a connective: Sva (Sun, the primordial energy of the universe, Inglia), S-preposition of connection and Tika (quick movement or circular motion). That is, Swa with Tik is the Swastika, the Sun with rotation or movement. Solstice!
This ancient symbol has been used by Slavic culture since its inception, and has several hundred different variations. Also, this ancient symbol is used by many other religions, including Buddhism. But for some reason, when this symbol is depicted on Buddha statues, no one classifies Buddhists as fascists or Nazis.

What about Buddhism? In the tradition of Russian patterns and ornaments, swastikas are found at every step. And even on Soviet money there was a swastika symbol, exactly the same as in Nationalist Germany, except that it was not black.

So why are we, or rather our (not our) authorities, trying to denigrate this symbol and put it out of use. Unless they are afraid of his true power, which can open their eyes to all their atrocities.
Absolutely all the galaxies that exist in our space have the shape of a swastika, so the ban on this symbol is simply pure absurdity.
Well, enough of the negative talk, let's take a closer look at the Swastikas themselves.
Swastika symbols have two main types of orientation:
Right solstice– rays directed to the left create the effect of rotation to the right. This is a symbol of creative solar energy, a symbol of birth and development.
Left-sided solstice– the rays are directed to the right, creating the effect of rotation to the left. This is a symbol of the energy of “destruction”. The word is deliberately placed in quotation marks, because there is no pure destruction in the universe. So that a new one is born solar system, first one of the suns must explode, that is, destructure and be cleared of the old program. Then new creation occurs. Accordingly, the left-sided swastika is a symbol of Purification, healing, and renewal. And wearing or using this symbol does not destroy, but purifies.
Therefore, it is important to carefully select this symbol based on the changes you want to achieve.
Slavic Swastika - this is one of the most powerful symbols that has ever existed in the universe. It is stronger than Runika, because it is understood in any galaxy and any universe. This is a universal symbol of existence. Treat this symbol with Respect and do not attribute it to just one people. And even more so to one extremely small event on the scale of the universe.
