@LifeIsAmazingUK This motive is common in Slavic folk-tales: witches and the Devil steal the Moon and less often – the stars from the sky ✨

But she is indeed a marvelous character! Iconic even!

Falling in love with this Kazakh artist!

🌙 Rim Bitik about her artworks: “Each piece is a visual story from the past, where I have come from, as well as a preview of the future, where I am going”

According to old East Slavic beliefs, a lot of magical herbs can be found only on Kupala night (the night between 6 to 7 July).

One of them is “the herb of invisibility”.

@avalonbalcony I asked it to draw me a blue bunny 💙🐰

“When it was their Sabbath nights, they used to put besoms or three-legged stools in bed beside their husbands;
so that if these deluded men should wake before their return,
they might believe they had their wives safe as usual”

(collected by E. Lynn Linton)

In Karelian folklore, Paha was evicted from the sky for interfering with the God’s work, and allowed to take only as much space as the end of a stake would take. So he put it into a swamp.
And from that hole all the snakes, frogs and otherworldly critters came out.
