Today we will get to meet a deity that, like many things in Slavic belief, is torn between dualities of being both good and bad, especially with the arrival of Christianity. A deity that is the protector of nature, wilderness, forests, and animals but also a fierce warrior. A deity with many powers, one of which is turning into animals, and most often he is depicted alongside a wolf or a deer. One of the supreme gods of the Slavic pantheon – the horned god Veles.
