Slavic Healing & Mystical Practices

For thousands of years, the Slavs have had a rich healing heritage steeped in mysticism, magic and spirituality. Every village had Znakharki (healers – the knowing ones) and Baba Sheptukhy (grandmother whispers) who would perform miraculous healings using herbal wisdom, sacred waters and magical ceremony. These healers were well respected as they were able to restore the health of members of the community. These folk healers were deeply spiritual, caring, compassionate and were considered to be the wisdom keepers – holding and preserving the sacred healing knowledge of the cosmos. Christa is a fifth generation Ukrainian-Canadian and teaches the ancient Slavic healing traditions of her ancestral lineages in this very special class.

Do these pysanky eggs look different from the ones you are used to seeing? These pysanky eggs that Christa Lynn made are based on ancient designs and colour combinations that her Ukrainian ancestors created and are the original way these eggs were decorated. These pysanky egg designs/colours predate the brightly synthetic coloured, intricate designs that are seen in modern times. The eggs in this photo made by Christa are created for special healing purposes and protection purposes as well as works of art. Here is an example of a 500 year old pysanka egg that is similar to the eggs in this photo. In the Slavic Folk Healing & Mystical Practices class that Christa Lynn teaches, you will learn how to make these ancient pysanky eggs in their original format using natural homemade dyes from spices, vegetables, fruits snd flowers.
