In the swastika symbolism of the ancient Slavs, according to information that has survived to this day, there is a power that can transform the existing order of things, if necessary, to revive the culture of the ancestors.
The ancient Slavs believed that the amulet was patronized by the warlike and wise god Kolyada, whom modern public figures would rather call a great diplomat than a pagan idol. Kolyada mastered the art of persuasion and could negotiate with anyone. Healso understood that the word can hurt no worse than a sharpened sword and skillfully "maneuvered", holding the line between peace negotiations and bloodshed.
Kolyadnik - a talisman, symbolizing the fateful and positive changes in fate, the inevitable victory of Good over Evil, rebirth to a new life. The amulet, the ancients believed, changes fate immediately, from the very moment it is put on, and the power of the action of the Kolyadnik depends on the faith of the person-carrier, provided that the life of the owner of the amulet is aimed at creation. The ancient Slavs believed that boys should wear this amulet as an attribute of a real man from the moment of birth.
Basic functions of the Kolyadnik
Although the Kolyadnik was considered a truly masculine amulet, the representatives of the weaker sex also sometimes used its power. In the lives of women, too, there were moments when they needed to be decisive and persistent, especially on the eve of important life changes. Change is a natural phenomenon, but in order for the wheel of Fate to turn in the right direction, the Slavs often needed helpers, which were amulets for them, among the main functions of which was the materialization of human desires.

The power of the amulet draws from the God of Kolyada (hence its name - Kolyadnik-amulet). The meaning of the symbol is so universal that it is difficult to name a specific sphere of its influence. It is only known that the power contained inamulet, warriors often turned.
God Kolyada was also depicted as a warrior with a lowered sword (a sign of reconciliation). It was in reconciliation, the ancient Slavs believed, that the main postulate of worldly prudence lies. The ability to avoid bloodshed, to force each of the parties to find mutual benefit - all of the listed qualities, as well as the ability not to stop there, inherent in diplomats, in those days were no less in demand than today.
Distinctive features of Kolyadnik
The pedigree was conducted among the Slavs in the male line, so great attention was paid to the upbringing of boys. From childhood, they learned the lessons of courage, determination and dexterity. Every year the boys became smarter, more experienced and stronger, increasing tribal wisdom and strength. The carol, being also a symbol of masculinity, accompanied the boy… guy… man throughout his life.
Whatever goal the bearer of the amulet set for himself, success was guaranteed to him, because Kolyadnik, the amulet, the meaning of which is almost forgotten today, was considered a very powerful energy talisman and an assistant in any business. Slavic men wore amulets from early childhood, and Kolyadnik, like a magnet, attracted good luck and fearlessness to them, restored and increased male strength.
Modern society provides representatives of the strong half of humanity with complete freedom of choice, the results of which determine how their male sex will develop.essence. The influence of the ancient Slavic amulets does not apply to a man who has chosen homosexuality, even if his goals and aspirations are aimed solely at the benefit of his kind.
Amulet Ladinets
The giver of love and female happiness, Lada shared with her wards a particle of her energy contained in Ladinets - a female protective amulet. Ladinets was the guardian of a woman's family happiness and contributed to her spiritual development.
Ladinets protected not only married women. Girls put it on at the age of three (children under the age of three were protected by other amulets) and received protection from negativity and magical attacks on the fragile children's psyche. So they grew, became prettier and learned their feminine essence, and when their time came, the energy contained in the amulet helped each to attract the man who most suited her.
How Ladinets "works"
Ladinets is eight rays directed against the movement of the solar disk - a symbolic reflection of the connection between the consciousness of the bearer of the amulet and Naviu - the world of ancestors. The energy cycle created by the eight rays could burst outward if it were not restrained by the circle. Limited by a circle, the energy of Lada gives constant nourishment to the bearer of the amulet.
What did Ladinets give to his wearer? The unconditional intercession of the mother of the gods served as a guarantee of harmonious relations with her husband, unfading beauty, peace, women's he alth and happiness.
If the female amulet Ladinets turn over,then you get the male Slavic amulet Kolyadnik, the value of which is difficult to overestimate.
The power of two amulets
It often happened like this: Slavic warriors had to combine the power of two amulets - male and female. When put together, they became a source of a powerful energy whirlwind, which was compared to a fiery chariot, leveling all obstacles that stand in its way with the ground. On the eve of the fateful event, the warriors hung both charms at the head of their bed for the whole night, and in the morning they woke up full of strength, ready to administer justice.
Ladinets and Kolyadnik (amulet, the meaning of which is described above), put together, symbolized a married couple or a "heavenly family".
