at in The Occult Library
[Enter This Session on Crowdcast!]
Join Dr. Georgi Mishev for a journey into the magical world of the Balkan fairy traditions - the mist‑shrouded guardians of the wild, of forests, mountains, and sacred springs.
In this seminar, we will explore the mysterious female spirits known across the Balkans under many names: the neraides of the Greeks; the samodivi, yudi, samovili, and vili of Bulgarians and Serbs; the ielele in Romanian folklore; and other enchanting beings who shape the region’s mythological landscape.
Together, we will discuss:
The core ritual practices associated with these supernatural beings
Sacred places dedicated to them - forest clearings, springs, and mountain sites
The plants, songs, and folktales traditionally linked to their presence
Their role as mistresses of the untamed world and mediators between nature and humans
This seminar offers a rich blend of mythology, anthropology, and folklore - perfect for anyone fascinated by ancient beliefs and the cultural heritage of the Balkans.
