Lada

Lada is a goddess from Slavic mythology, who is considered to be the goddess of love, beauty, and fertility. She is often depicted as a beautiful and graceful figure, and is revered for her ability to bring joy and happiness to the world.

Lada was associated with love, beauty, and fertility, and was often invoked for blessings in relationships, marriage and childbirth. She was believed to bring happiness, harmony and prosperity to those who honored her. She was also considered a goddess of beauty, and was invoked to inspire art and music, and to bring blessings to artists and musicians.

In Slavic mythology, Lada is often associated with spring, and is considered to be the embodiment of the beauty and fertility of nature. She was also associated with the afterlife, and was believed to be the guide of souls to the afterlife. In some Slavic cultures, Lada was also considered the goddess of wisdom and was invoked for guidance and protection.

Lada was honored in various rituals and ceremonies throughout the year, particularly during the spring, when the nature awakens from winter. These rituals often involved offerings of flowers, food, and drink to the goddess, as well as the performance of songs and dances in her honor.

In modern times, Lada is not as well-known as some other Slavic gods, such as Perun, and is not widely worshiped. However, she is still remembered in Slavic folklore and literature, and some modern pagan movements, such as Rodnovery, have sought to revive the worship of the Slavic gods and goddesses, including Lada.
