RODA

All civilizations were originally matriarchal but at one point it was replaced by patriarchy. And they all have stories about the Goddess Mother who gave birth to the world. Roda (or stork) is the view on this principle from the perspective of the Slavs.

Goddess Roda is directly responsible for the fertility of humans and animals, she ensures that all female beings get their offsprings. She gives souls to the newborn children and cubs. Her maids are called „Roždanice“ (the birth fairies“ that donate characteristics to the newborn, and together they are trying to save a child from the evil demons of disease.
