The Russian spring holiday Komoeditsa should be celebrated from 21 to 28 March. This is a strict holiday. It does not "float" according to the calendar, because it is astronomical, that is, the day of the vernal equinox.

For many years in a row, the Jewish Christian Church has mocked Russian culture, forcing the people to celebrate the native astronomical calendar holiday of the spring equinox - Komoeditsa - in February. For what purpose Christians kill the Russian national holiday, it is understandable: they remember less, they serve better … "God's" slaves.

False "carnival"

Here is what the Great Soviet Encyclopedia (TSB) writes: "Maslenitsa, the name (since the 16th century) of the ancient Slavic pagan multi-day holiday of" farewell to winter ", which marked the transition to spring agricultural work." The same date - the 16th century - is called by Brockhaus and Efron in their dictionary. Since that time, Christianity has already sufficiently entrenched itself on the Russian land and, with its cruelty and pressure, has managed to take a leading position among the powerful "minds".

The same TSB in the article "Maslenitsa" reports: "The Christian Orthodox Church has included Maslenitsa among its holidays (" oil week "on the eve of Lent)", and in the article "Paganism" says directly: "The Church has included the main pagan holidays among the Christian ones, in order to subordinate community cults to their influence (see, for example, Maslenitsa, Carnival)”.

In the article "The Russians" TSB reports: "The people, up to the October Revolution of 1917, partly retained beliefs in spirits associated with the house (brownie, bean goose), nature (goblin, water, mermaids), witches, etc. The official church was forced to adapt to ancient beliefs, allowing the endowment of Christian "saints" with the functions of ancient Slavic deities (for example, Ilya the Prophet - Perun, Vlasiy - Veles) and the connection with Christian festivals and rituals (Nativity of Christ, Easter) of pre-Christian (winter cycle: Christmas - Shrovetide; spring-summer cycle: seven - trinity - Kupalo) ".

In the article "Paganism": "The resulting" dual faith "persisted until the beginning of the 20th century", that is, only the October Revolution was able to completely subjugate the Russian people to the Christian religion.

About the essence of the Maslenitsa holiday, in particular. TSB reports: “In ancient times it consisted in various ritual actions of a magical-religious nature, which later turned into traditional folk customs and rituals (burning a straw effigy, baking sacrificial bread - pancakes, dressing, etc.). For many centuries, Maslenitsa retained the character of a festivities, accompanied by feasts, games, sleigh rides from the mountains, and fast horseback riding."

Real Russian carnival

The real Russian Maslenitsa is a ritual and astronomical holiday. It is celebrated strictly from March 21 to March 28 and is timed to coincide with the vernal equinox. Before the arrival of Christians and forced baptism, Russia was a strong secular (by modern standards) state. There were no pagan gods, no religion in our homeland. There was a veneration of the great Russian ancestors who were the children of the gods. We are the same children - modern Russian people. Therefore, we do not need to go to churches, mosques and synagogues. Each of us has family photos at home: our ancestors are our real gods.

March 24 - comedian

The main day in the weekly Maslenitsa is the oldest holiday - Komoeditsa. Its age is estimated by scientists at 7 - 8 thousand years. This is one of the oldest Russian holidays. Today is the day of honoring the Bear God: making a sacrifice to the great Honey Beast. The twenty-third dry (March 24), when the day becomes longer than the night, when nature awakens and the Yarilo-sun melts the snow, the Slavs celebrate Komoeditsy.

Shrovetide and Komoeditsa - history of origin

In the morning they hurry to the temple

In the morning, people rush to the temple, to a high place where the earth has dried up. Grain is scattered near the temple and at the crossroads. This is done so that the navi, who took the form of forty, eat the grain and do not interfere with the holiday. Hot pancakes and pies, oatmeal jelly, honey, kvass and snacks are placed on tables covered with a tablecloth. The meal is divided into five parts, the fifth part is placed in an open place near the Sacred Fire, saying:

“Our honest parents!

Here is a pancake for your soul."

Marena's stuffed animal is being carried

A straw effigy of Marena is solemnly carried to the temple on a pole. All stand along the road, bow to the belt and call Marena Svarogovna:

“Come to us

On a wide yard:

Ride on the mountains

Roll in pancakes

Make fun of your heart.

Shrovetide - red beauty, light brown braid, Sister of thirty brothers, Forty grandmothers granddaughter, Three mothers daughter, kvetochka, Berry, quail."

Pancake treat

They begin to treat each other with pancakes. Prepare the first pancake. He is carried into the thicket, donating to the clubfoot owner of the forest. There is an ancient Russian proverb “The first pancake is lumpy”. And over time, it was perverted by alien "scientists". Kom - in Russia this is a taboo name for a bear. Hence, for example, "komanika" is a bear berry, it is also a blackberry. After the initiation is carried out. Kindle the Fire. They glorify the gods and ancestors, the entire Slavic family. They twist the salmon in a round dance, wearing hari, so that evil spirits do not recognize, buffoons show a performance, they are helped by kolobrods:

Like butter week

Pancakes flew out of the pipe!

You pancakes, pancakes, pancakes, You are my pancakes …"

They jump over the fire, and after that they must wash themselves with snow or melt water. It is believed that melt water gives beauty to the face. Young people who have got married during the past year are magnified. Unmarried and unmarried people are tied with a bandage or rope. To remove it, you need to pay off by bringing a treat with you to the common table.

Surya bowl

Everyone is poured with antimony. The priestess of Marena carries the first cup of surya to the altar. The priestess of Zhiva knocks out this cup, making sure that not a single drop falls on the altar, for then it will get colder again, Marena will return:

“Go away, winter is cold!

Come, Summer is hot!

With a painful time

With flowers, with grass!"

Burn Marena

Then a stuffed Marena is solemnly burned at the stake, throwing garbage, straw and old things into the fire:

"Marena is tanned, The whole world is tired of it!"

Again they jump over the fire, addressing Semargl to light the snow.

The burning wheels roll

Then they glorify Yarila, rolling the burning wheels from the mountain in honor of the flaring sun:

"Roll down the mountain, Come back with spring!"

Awaken the Bear

After that, armed with burning brands, they go to "wake the bear" (wake up). In the pit, covered with dead wood, lies a mummer depicting a sleeping bear. Participants of the holiday lead a round dance around the den, shouting that there is urine, trying to wake the clubfoot. Then they begin to throw branches, snowballs, twigs at it. The "bear" does not wake up until one of the girls sits on its back and jumps on it. Then the "bear" starts to wake up. The girl runs away, tearing off a piece of a bear skin or a bear leg. The mummer gets up and begins to dance, imitating the awakening of the bear, then goes to look for his loss, leaning on a crutch:

Squeak your foot, Squeak linden!

And the water is sleeping

And the earth is asleep.

And they sleep in the villages

They sleep in the villages.

One woman does not sleep

Sits on my skin.

Spins my fur

They cook my meat.

It dries my skin."

Having caught his offender, the "bear" tries to strangle her in his arms with a bear grip.

Games

After awakening, the games begin. The first game is a town. The girls stand on a high fenced place (town). Armed with long sticks, they beat off the guys' attack, pounding them mercilessly. The guys "on horseback" are trying to break into the town, take it by storm. The one who first breaks into the town gets the right to kiss all the defenders. After the capture of the town, a feast begins with a mountain, and then the rest of the Maslenitsa fun: fists, horses, swings, climbing a pole for a gift, a stream …

The fire goes out …

The spirits of great ancestors, invisibly present at the holiday, rejoice with us. The Slavic clan has not yet died out, as the Slavs came to the holiday thousands of years ago to observe the Custom. What is a holiday? The memory of a person about himself through the gods and about the gods through himself, the cleansing of the soul from vain worries and empty memory. Under the gaze of Heaven, the holiday ends, the songs subside, the Fire goes out. The words of the Veles Book sound, awakening the memory of ancestors in the souls:

“And the Heavenly Svarog will say:

“You go, my son, Until that eternal beauty!

You will see grandfather and a woman there.

O! How happy they will be

It's fun to suddenly see you!

Until this day they shed tears, Now they can rejoice

About your eternal life

Until the end of the centuries!"

When parting, they present each other with gingerbread and say:

“Forgive me, perhaps

You will be guilty of something."

The farewell ended with a kiss and a low bow.
