But in order for it to benefit the owner and provide the desired effect, you must first find out who it is suitable for, what its properties are and how to wear it, activate it, and “charge” it.
How the Star of Rus' amulet appeared
Most esoteric researchers agree that initially the Star of Rus' personified the pagan god Svarog. Then he was considered the Creator and Heavenly Father. In those days, this symbol was used by wise men, knights, and even such well-known princes as the Prophetic Oleg and Svyatoslav. The symbol adorned their clothing.
Ancient Slavic Star of Rus'
In addition, the Star of Rus' is associated with the Vedas, in which the secret knowledge of the ancient Slavs is encrypted. The symbol is found ubiquitously in various Vedic literatures. There it is attributed a special sacred meaning.
Appearance and meaning of the symbolism of Svarog Square
The Svarog Square symbol looks like a rhombus, into which two pointed ovals arranged in a cross are inscribed. The lines form an accurate, completely finished drawing.
There are several meanings of the Star of Svarog as a talisman:
- The basis of this sign is a star with eight rays, which connects three worlds with each other: Nav (the abode of dead souls, hidden from the eyes of the living - there is always peace and quiet), Reality (the world of the living as it is - with all the advantages and disadvantages) and Rule (the abode of the gods - the world that rules others). This meaning of the amulet indicates the unification of time and its flow with the three main elements that exist in every person: soul, body and spirit.
- The rhombus underlying the symbol signifies the fertility of the earth. The lines (pointed ovals) coming out of it are human virtues: honor, justice, freedom, faith. This shows that everything in life is united and one cannot exist without the other.
- Indication of the cardinal directions, their relationship.
- The unification of the masculine and feminine principles, the dark and light sides. The solar circle in which the symbol is inscribed is also displayed here. The luminary serves as the center of concentration of protective functions, worldview and love for the world around us.
Note! Each element of the symbol carries certain functions, the unequivocal uniqueness of which is difficult to unravel these days. But everything, one way or another, comes down to the unifying and balancing functions of the amulet.
Meaning
The amulet of the ancient Slavs, the star of Rus', primarily symbolizes the connection with the ancestors. At the same time, it also combines three intangible, spiritual worlds:
- Reality. Reflects surrounding events and reality. Symbolizes a material component that can be touched.
- Nav. The world of spirits and incorporeal creatures. Divided into two sides. One is inhabited by the souls of our ancestors, the other by hostile entities.
- Correct. The world of deities and higher entities. Inaccessible to mere mortals. Only those who have lived in full accordance with the Vedas can get there.

- The embroidery must be done by a blood relative. It was impossible to embroider for yourself on your own clothes.
- Work began on the waxing moon.
- When embroidering, it was necessary to think only about the good and imagine how the power of the amulet grows with each stitch, how dear the person for whom the amulet is made is.

- The completed drawing must be an exact copy of the ancient ornament. Any distortions may lead to undesirable consequences. At best, the amulet will simply lose its power; at worst, it will bring various problems and misfortunes to its owner.
- Natural materials have the natural power of nature. Embroidery done with linen or cotton threads always has more power.
