Summary

[edit]
Description

The Ynglist religious symbol of the nine-pointed "star of Yngly" (звезда Инглии, zvezda Yngliy). Yngly is the personification of the Ynglia, the fiery ordering action of the supreme God of the universe which is often represented at the centre of the star as a hooked cross, a thunder (Perun) or as a sword. The star of Yngly is also called oberezhnik (обережник, symbol of the "guardian") and mati-gotka (мати-готка, "ready mother") in popular tradition, referring to matter ready to be ordained by the divine force (cf. sources #1, 3). It also represents the harmonious man (Aryan). The three intersecting triangles represent the three worlds of traditional Slavic cosmology (Prav, Yav and Nav), the Triglav within each of them, but also spirit, body and soul on the human plane. The circle surrounding the triangles represents the Ynglia itself, and also human consciousness awakened by the cognition of Yngly, while the infinite space beyond the circle is God's infinite potentiality. Elementally, the three triangles represent earth, water and fire, while the circle represents air and the infinite space beyond it represents the infinite Heaven (Svarga) (cf. sources #2, 3).
