Baba Yaga’s Palette: The Secrets of her Three Sacred Colours Lecture

  • Ukrainian Museum of Canada, Ontario Branch 620 Spadina Avenue Toronto, ON, M5S 2H4 Canada (map)

Lecture with Patricia Robin Woodruff

Hidden in the tales of Baba Yaga, the fearsome witch of the Slavic forest, is the answer to the riddle of the Triple Goddess. Known by many names, the Triple Goddess shows up in Celtic stories, Slavic lore, Greek mythology and even the teachings of India. Patricia Robin Woodruff will go into the three colours that weave throughout all of these cultures providing a glimpse into the commonality of belief. These themes of colour also show the extreme antiquity of the roots that grew into these diverse branches of Pagan belief that spans countries and continents. You will also learn a lot more about the often overlooked Slavic Deities. Come join Patricia Robin Woodruff for a fascinating presentation of these indigenous beliefs from India and the Euro-Slavic lands.
