In Russia, as well as everywhere, many plants were endowed with a symbolic, religious or magical meaning. In numerous apocryphic legends about the cross tree, cedar, cypress and olive are usually mentioned (in Slavic versions of the third tree usually singer - coniferous: pine, fir). Old Believers considered alien plants with devilish. For example, the potatoes were called damn, antichrist, anti-water or soda apple; Allegedly he grew out of the anus or genitals of some oriental sorcerer or from the body of the daughter of King Herod, who had a sexual connection with the dog (a woman and dog were killed, after which potatoes were grew out of the corpse of a woman - tobacco). No less Satanic was considered twice damned tea and three times the damned coffee, which, according to historically unjustified statements of the Old Believers, were convicted of seven universal cathedrals.

Clavician herbs and roots (which could be sewn into the collar or attaching to a native crossed), of course, were an integral affiliation of a sorcerer or a sign; Our possession often served as evidence against accused in witchcraft in the XVII-XVIII centuries. In written texts, the words of the root or grass are used; They are non-specific and can designate a plant of any kind. Naturally, the word root, as well as the potion (grass; medicinal or magical remedy; poison; powder), maybe it's just a magical or medicine: IN AND. Dahl mentions a guidance potion, guidance and disguise roots as the magic herbs offered by village healers in order to excite or, on the contrary, to suppress a love feeling; He also cites proverbs like the old age potion - grave.

It is very often difficult to relate the names of the magic or magician medicinal herbs, which are found in folk beliefs or fairy tales, with certain real plants, although V.I. Dal and A.N. Afanasyev made such attempts. The names of the plants and their properties in folklore and handwritten texts often can move from one to another, confounded by local variation. As in the times of classical antiquity, and in various European traditions, plants should be collected at a certain time (usually at the dawn of Ivanov of the day) or a special way, for example without the use of iron objects or only with the help of gold or silver guns. Sometimes special prayers or conspiracies are mentioned in the herbalists, for example: Lord bless. And you, Mother Cheese-Earth, bless this grass to tear ... Amen (words should pronounce three times). In another plot published by A.N. Pin Pin in 1862, with an indication of the existence of the text at that time, the Saint Adam Nasnya (Seeds) is given, and the Lord is smirking, and Mati bodily watered, that Wsyim Orthodox was given to the misery. The conspiracy was pronounced, standing with his back to the plant, having previously squeezed himself with a cross and spun on the ground three times, otherwise the torn grass would not have healing strength.

The following is a selective list of plants names and their magical properties, based on a number of sources. Russian traditional medicine was at the advantage of grass, and, like everywhere, a healer and patient often did not distinguish between the real drug properties of plants and the magical properties that they were attributed. The village of the XIX century village was proud that he was known ninety-nine or seventy-seven herbs and roots, of which he had to keep home twelve. These numbers themselves have a magic value. The list of plants can be significantly expanded at the expense of numerous surviving herbalists (handwritten books dedicated to traditional medicine;

some of them are published), but a significant part of the Mother Alla can not be interpreted as having an undoubtedly magical character. Plants with only medicinal properties and employees for healing certain physical ailments are not described here.

Adamova head. IN AND. Dal identifies this plant (without noting his magical properties) as a mandragore or black Osay of Centaurea Scabiosa. It was believed that the wizards collect him for the holiday of Ivan Kupala and secretly stored to the Great Thursday. The hunters who received the grass from the Clavius \u200b\u200bto the Great Thursday were filled with her equipment, which was used to catch ducks. This grass, which was a peculiar king of herbs, should be assembled with a cross and prayer; A man spoiled by a spell, or a fruitless woman could get healing, drinking infusion from her. Okropyiv grass with holy water and holding it on the church throne forty days, the owner received the opportunity to recognize evil spirits and sorcerers. For three days, she healed wounds. In Ukraine, they believed that Adamova head was able to attract gifts and facilitate childbirth.

Adrian and Maria - see Ivan-da Maria.

Artamon. Artamonov day, September 12, was considered a snake holiday. The plant called in honor of the saint defended evil spirits.

Archangel, Arharic Arkhalim, (King) Archill, Archon, Tsar Force, Tsar Simtarim (various local names). IN AND. Dahl says about the archive as a fabulous grass. In the herbers of the XVII-XVIII centuries, it is said that it grows from the ribs of the corpse (or the root having the shape of the human body - Wed with Mandrague), and it is necessary to collect it on Ivanov the day with the help of a gold or silver coin. Who wears this grass with you, not the devil nor the sorcerer, nor the villain; He will be lucky in court, and everyone will love him if drinking it in milk, healed from infertility and saved from damage. See also Symotarine (below).

Azarosha Head (i.e. Adamova Head; part of the grass name is re-given Tarabar literacy. - Ed.). This grass should be collected with a cross, three hundred times repeating the words of the prayer of Jesus (Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, a lot of sin, sinning). The infusion of grass was protected from malicious magic (damage) and helped women in childbirth. The one who wanted to learn to recognize the devil or heretic (i.e. sorcerer) was to wet the grass in the water and leave her forty days at the church throne, after which he received the ability to see air and water demons.

Elder. According to beliefs, the road cane from the elder guarded the traveler from the predatory animals and dashing people. In this regard, it was proposed to commit an extravagant ritual: on the eve of the day of all saints to cut a elderish stick desired size, From the bottom end, hollow the soft core and put inside the wolf eyes, the languages \u200b\u200bof the three green lizards, the heart of the dog and three swallow hearts, pre-widespread in powder and mixed with a storm. Then fade the iron tip to the stick and use it as a road arm.

Hit. In case of the witchcraft of 1628, this name appears as synonym for the names of Strekil.

Gangan. Invisible in wine, this plant allegedly protected from damage and evil eye. Perhaps this is the same as Grass Galbel, about which herbalist of the XVIII century reports: if you keep it (or nettle) in my hand, you will be protected from finding your enemies and defeat from them, neither the packs of that person of the vorozhba nor the definition do not have. If a woman keeps this grass under the tongue, it will fight it from conception.

Caunch. A man who drank the infusion of this herb is not dangerous bears. Dye hard to identify, because many plants with blue flowers, and at least one kind of mushrooms, wear such a name in different methods.

Peas. It was believed that if you kill the spring dog, cut her live, put it inside three peas and then buried the dog into the ground, then the flower will grow; It needs to be ripped at noon or at midnight, roll in wax and put in the mouth; Then it will be possible to recognize what one of the mind.

Elecampane. The etymology of the name is obviously related to the words nine and power (cf. it. Neunkrafi). This name leads M. Forgive Lin. IN AND. Dal identifies nine as a medicinal plant Inula Helenium (Elecampane),known since antiquity and leads various ways to use it; In his opinion, the name of NiSil is distorted by the Divosyl, originating from Words Divo (Miracle) and Strength. However, dialectic options and single-finished words from other Slavic languages \u200b\u200bdo not confirm this version and rather indicate the general Slavonic root associated with a universal magical number 9. In the XVI century M. Ridley mentions this plant as medicinal and relates it to Enula Satrapa (according to Dolinneyev classification). Natherish was collected on the eve of Ivanov of the day, dried and crushed together with Ladan; They put incense and wore on the body, without removing, nine days, after which they were secretly sewn in the dress who loved the person as a malfunction. According to the peasant persons, the nine concludes nine forces. In the Amur region, we find the nine (Tanacetum Boreale), healing from nine diseases. The question was whether this name was due to believe or the opposite remains open.

Dyagil, Diagel (Angelica). This plant has long been and widely known in Northern Europe. It was believed that Dyagil was extremely useful at the moments of danger, for example, in order to give a horse. The plants of Ivan-Da-Ma and Yatryshnik, or the curtains of tears (according to V.I. Dale - Orchis) also possess these properties. Dal adds that this plant uses girls who want to acquit acquaintance; It should be added horses in Oats, pre-grinding. In addition, the legs and belly of the horse need to be lubricated with a deer fat, and on the neck she will penetrate two wolf teeth.

YEREK. According to beliefs, it grows near small rivers in deaf places. His colors are a cabinet with a cinnabar. The plant should be put under the church big angle for three days, and then sew in the header, while saying: how this grass was lying under the church corner and no one saw, so b and me, the servant of God (name), no one saw and did not hear In any case, on the day and in the back. These words should have been pronounced at dawn within three days.

Zory, otherwise listeners. According to the article in the dictionary V.I. Dalya, this is a plant Ligusticum Levisticum, or Levisticum officinalis, Love, love. Protects from fever and mermaids that can rocked to death.

Ibrahim. Digid root. Putting it behind the mirror, a woman looking at his reflection, said: As I look in the mirror, I do not see, so you have not seen me at me (such something). The name may be distorted under the influence of the common Muslim name being reversible, which will be discussed further.

Ivan-da-Marya, also called Adrian and Maria, Jacob and Maria, Grass Ivan. Ppm Toren correlates it with Melampyrum Nemorosum. The characteristics used this grass to restore family consent and to cure some diseases. She, too, should be collected on Ivana Bucala before the sunrise; Laid for four corners of the house, she protected the dwelling from thieves. IN AND. Dal gives only the name of the Ivan-Grass and a number of possible correspondences, but does not mention any magical properties.

Job friendship. A wonderful plant, which, like a break-grass, is able to launder castles and drowsy. On the thieves zagon means the knee.

Barber. The widespread name of barbed plants. The grass bargain collects magicians to the Petrovsky post (with whom the ending of cuckoo cake and numerous agricultural signs are associated during evening dew; dried and stored in cow bubbles. It was believed that the gun embarfled with this herb, the metago shoots and cannot be spoiled by any shutter. IN AND. Dahl (see prick) refers to a barrel just like a prickly plant, which indicates and its name, and does not make a pyrtok identify it; However, he mentions the fumair of the rifles by the magic smoke of the plant. A. De Gubernatis gives another option: an arrow immersed in the infusion of this grass beats without misses. According to A.N. Afanasyev, barber - is the same thing that the string-grass, lentill-grass, thistle. Ppm Thorn brings the name of the spillage to designate Carlina Bieberstinii and as another name of the thistle.

If they have time to grab the non-wind not with their hands, but mouth, the whole strength of the grass will go to them.

Reverse. If a woman puts grass on a mirror, it will attract her husband's love.

H.h. Vinogradov mentions a plant called the bump, which in shape resembles a person and has the ability to bring sleep for snakes and people.

Plakuan grass. IN AND. Dal relates it with four different plants. Ppm Toren gives only one compliance - Lythrum Salicaria. According to a pigeon book (spiritual verse, which is a set of folk cosmology), the tears of the Mother of God fell on the grass-grass, the tears of God, which mourning Crucified Christ, therefore, it was also named, Mati's herbs. In one of the versa verses, it is said that in Russia, crosses were made from the root of placun grass, the Crosses for the overama of the monk, old people and the detachments. According to I.P.

Cover. IN AND. Dahl (see cover) leads the word covered as a name for different species aconite. Perhaps this word is akin to the word Caper - tart for taste, but under the influence of folk etymology it began to relate to the verb to cover - hide. This explains why in Ukraine the plant attributed the property to help against slanderous imaging and the magic damage directed against the bride. In Russia, he was collected from August 15 to October 1, using against wedding leadership: when the bride will bring the house from the church in the grooms, then the meaning card runs forward, puts the grass under the threshold. The bride, warned by native on the action of the sign, at the entrance to the house should jump over the threshold.

This grass was used mainly to find treasures. According to V.I. Gal, under this name can be implied by the plant SaxiFraga or Impatiens (non-trunk me). Obviously, the key-grass is associated with the rupture (perhaps this is the option of the popular belief described above, but the distance identifies the key-grass - see the key - like Botrychium Lunaria) and live grass; The latter can be mixed with the break and key-grass, and in folk fairy tales it is said that it can be found with the help of a snake, hedgehog, black dyatla (evil) or regene birds. All the above-mentioned herbs are definitely highly appreciated by the thieves. In the explanatory dictionary (1882) V.I. Dalya (see Sprog-grass) says: Not so long ago there was still a lawsuit on sprying grass: the retired soldier presented several Spanish talers of the XVII-GO century, mined by sprying, and that lured money for the extraction of treasure. In one modern popular book about Russian beliefs relating to nature, it is argued that the rupture-grass is shown only to those who already have a flower of fern and the root of placun grass.

Rewind (Reek). It was believed that this plant was roaring or moan. The belief occurred most likely as the result of folk etymology (from the verb roar), rather than echoes the property, which is attributed to Mandragore. Rhubarily is able to ignite and sail against the flow. The rhubarb slide in the mouth also gets the ability to float against the current. If you give a little roaring person, whom they smoked, he will indicate on who his spoil-til; Under the influence of Rhubarb, incorrect wives will name the names of their lobbies. The last belief may be due to the fact that the revival was the most effective laxative, affordable in the XVII-XVIII centuries.

Strekil. Mentioned as a magic grass in the materials of the process of witchcraft held in the Great Luki in 1628. The Peasant Wizard, Katerina, was accused of wanted to cause miscarriage from her mistress, pregnant wife Prince Fedor Yeletsky. The named plant was one of the suspicious items found in her house. IN AND. Dahl leads the word Strakili as a Pskov dialect name of Bodhai, a water plant Spongia, or BodigaFluviatis. Bodharya was used as a medicine from gold (at the same time VI Dal, Medic by profession, notes that the plant is harmful). Women and girls used Bodhaga for the guidance of the Rumyanta - the red cheeks were valued (the manner of rumbling and shake caused the dismissive reviews of foreign travelers). Katerinka swore that she used Strekil's grass for such purposes, but she did not believe.

Tirlich, or Tyarlch. They collected on the eve of Ivanov's Day at Bald Mountain in Kiev, where the witch flies on the sabab. Only he can have Tõrlych who had previously mined a placan. From Tyrley, the juice is squeezed, which rubbed the armpits with magic transformations. IN AND. Dal determines this plant as Gentiana Amarella and adds that Tierlich Yes, the head of the bone is humbled by the authorities. He also gives this word as synonym for the word Badja (Typha) m. A.H. Afanasyev leads beliefs, as if Tyrlich's root is able to make a man is worn out and gives him the opportunity to fly. The witches were rubbed under the mouse and under the knees of Tyrlich juice precisely in order to fly through the chimney. M.

Neckan Europe); If you look through it to the Kupalsky ko erase, for the whole year will protect yourself from headache and eye illness. Cows, who were wicked by the infusion of this grass, gave a pain of milk. In Belarus, Chernobyl served as a faith from the line and lightning. Since the time of Plear, there was an idea that one who eats the meat of the snake would acquire the ability to understand the language of animals and plants. And the man will lose this wonderful gift if you eat wormwood or drink it infusion. Believing about this is the most important property of wormwood, in Russia, in Ukraine and in Belarus. The magical power of the wormwood was so great that only the mention of her name could negate the spells imposed by the queen of snakes. Rogovich (on whom A. De Gubernatis refers) leads a story from Old Oak: a girl collecting mushrooms, got into a cave with snakes; Snake Queen entered its gift to understand the language of plants and knowledge of their properties under one condition - never to pronounce the word Chernobyl (wormwood). Once the girl inadvertently said this word and immediately lost her gift. M. Forinin gives the option of the name of the plant - the Chernobor. If you rush the Chernobyl at the end of August or in the first days of September, to sew in the skin of a young hare and wear in the form of a garter, you can overtake the fastest horse. Under the roots of the plant you can find a corner that should be worn as an amulet for happiness and good luck. Believe that Artemisia plant can protect against witchcraft, it is also known in the West: it is mentioned, for example, in written book Wolfsthurn XV century.

Thistle. A.N. Afanasyev and V.I. Dahl believes that the names of the Carduus and Cirsium plants are called this name. B.A. Merkulova adds the name Arctium here and leads an alternative, extinguishing in the Russian north and in Siberia, - the word Shishobar (? The winner of the trait). According to M.D. Toren is the same as the king grass. Thistle distilts the unclean strength and witches, protects domestic cattle, heals the disease. To expel an evil spirit from a sick epilepsy, you need to turn the circle around it around it, and then mercilessly beat the fallen thistle (and this is a very barbed grass). In the Amur region, this plant is associated with Bidens Tripartita and consider it a medicine from gold and children's insomnia. In the collection L.N. Maikova is a conspiracy from worms at domestic livestock: Mordvin, Mordvin, you king grass thistle, bring the worms (at such a cattle and there). If you do not bring, I bring your root. Therefore, it was followed to the thistle of three morning and three evening dawn and utter this conspiracy, turning to the east.

Garlic, as in other places in Europe, was considered a faith from evil spirits and hostile witches. In Belarus, women wore garlic to protect their evil family life. To protect in court on the chest on the right side, a black snake language and three cloves of garlic tied towel. Richard James, who visited Russia in 1618-1619, recorded in his dictionary: one-building, garlic head without teeth, which they use for special witchcraft.

Many other plants may also be associated with witchcraft practitioners. So, Juniper and Tatarn, collected in the great Thursday, plugged under Matitsa or burned in the oven, guarded the house from sorcerers. Wreaths from birch branches used on the trinity for the girl's gadas about marriage, and the oven grass (herbs left in the church for the holiday of Trinity - Spirit Day) fured the cattle during the case. The sorcerer could start any grass or a cereal plant in the node for malicious magic (the so-called hall, or spiru, see. P. Xx). With a different method, the grain was used: it was necessary to find a spike with twelve octanks, keep it until next year and in the spring of Sevele, the first to throw grain in the earth from this spike - it was supposed to provide a good harvest. For the treatment of folk healers (s) used such a way: nine twins were settled, taken from a broken lightning of the tree, and then they made them, spraying with water from the mouth, so that the splashes from the branches fall into the patient. In one list of herbalist XVII century, called cool vertograd, describes a way to establish virginity: the leaves of the horse sorrel were set on fire near the girl - if she was pale, it means that the innocence is lost. One can only guess how many viruses were able to pass this test without prejudice to their own reputation.
