Trees exist in both darkness, and light at the same time. It's branches reach out, and grow towards the light & warmth of the sun, but it's roots are digging deep into the darkness & coolness of the earth. The tree is the link between two worlds. I believe our pagan ancestors understood the importance of such balance, and applied this to their spirituality. With their feet planted firmly on the ground and their heads reaching up towards the heavens... They understood that the spiritual world & physical world are linked. Slavs even had a rune called Belobog’s rune that resembles a person standing on the ground with their arms up towards the sky. Chernobog’s rune looks exactly the same, but upside down.

Brand new video clip from the Belarusian fantasy folk band Irdorath, Сэрца Расколата, "Heart is torn apart".
"The story is about brothers and a sister who made a long way to meet and to do together what is so frightfully to do alone: they leave behind the symbols of the past which are dear to their hearts, sacrifice them to the elements of water and fire and then receive their inner liberation."
This band creates its own musical world, filled with echoes of pagan folk, European Medieval Age culture and Belarusian mythology.

I remember one of these. When I left Russia back in 1994 almost everyone in my neighborhood had a family food garden, and cellar. The women would can their harvest, and store in cellar for the winter. Russians are big on growing their own food. Most people own one, or more plots of land, which they utilize for food gardening. Majority of Russian’s who live in cities own dacha houses which is like a Summer vacation house in the country where they grow food.
