Since ancient times, the Slavic amulet Alatyr has been the most common solar symbol, personifying the infinity of life.
According to legend, this stone is considered the sacred center of the universe, since Svarog was able to generate a life spark in Alatyr by hitting it with a hammer. Amulets with this symbol will help radically change the life of the owner for the better.
Value
Alatyr-amulet also has lesser known names, like the Eye of the Rod God, the heart of the Universe or the cross of Svarog, and contains the ancient knowledge and experience of ancestors.
In the old days, its main purpose was to communicate with the deities that govern all earthly life.
It is also believed that the Alatyr stone symbolizes the desire for secret knowledge and the transfer of existing experience from sages to beginners.
Outwardly, the symbol looks like a star with eight peaks, with a dot in the very center. Eight rays arose at the merger of the cross of Perun, which symbolizes protection from any evil, and the cross of Veles, reflecting universal harmony.
Among the Slavs, the number eight is filled with mystical properties for a number of reasons:
- the solar calendar has eight major holidays;
- a person's life path is subdivided into eight stages, each of them contributes to spiritual changes in the personality.
The presence of the central ninth point is also not accidental and is associated with higher forces – as you know, the mother carries the baby for nine months, and the human body is divided into nine chakras.
Alatyr characterizes the unity of the masculine principle, which symbolizes strength, reliability and endurance, with the feminine principle, which helps to develop intuition and hidden abilities. Outside, the star is framed by a circle symbolizing live fire – its action is aimed at protecting a person from negative energy.
