English Italiano Print this page Cryptic survival of wisdom in fairy tales: Baba Yaga

SoidlaAfter shipwreck of civilizations, fragments of the dominant metaphysical systems are not always lost, but sometimes they seem to find their way to safety of fairy tales. In this presentation Slavonic fairy tale heroine Baba Yaga is considered to be related to Ba of Hathor. Hathor is a horned Egyptian Goddess of starry sky. In her chtonic aspect she greets, feeds and helps the new souls in another world. As Sekhmet, she is a warrior and as Isis was involved in baking a child in fire in Byblos (presumably to transform his physical nature). All these aspects are present in Baba Yaga tales.
