Jarný sprievod / Marzanna tradition


Vynášanie Moreny je starý pohanský zvyk, ktorý symbolicky pretrváva dodnes. Morena bola staroslovanská bohyňa zimy a smrti - zosobnenie niečoho nepríjemného, čoho sa chceli ľudia na jar zbaviť. Rituálnou rozlúčkou s Morenou privolávali teplú a životodarnú jar. Táto tradícia sa zachovala v jemne obmenených podobách v rôznych kútoch Slovenska, ale i v okolitých krajinách.
Carrying out an efigy of Morena is an old pagan custom that continues till today, in symbolic form. Morena is a Slavic goddess of winter and death - the personification of something unpleasant, which people wanted to get rid in the beginning of Spring. By a ritual farewell to Morena our ancestors had asked for warm and life-giving spring. This tradition has been preserved in slightly varied forms in different parts of Slovakia, as well as in neighbouring countries.
