The Beeswax Domovyk House Gnome Candle is the perfect way to invite the blessings of the Slavic house spirit, the Domovyk, into your home.

 

Description

The Domovyk (Ukrainian and Serbian), Domovoy (Russian), Domowik (Polish) is a Slavic house spirit, a tiny little man with gray shaggy hair, a long beard, and bright eyes. He’s a shy fellow, though, so most of the time he will make himself invisible, and when he is, you’ll only be able to detect him by the sounds he makes as he rustles through your things or scampers through your house.

If you are lucky enough or gifted enough to see him, he might look a little familiar to you. He can bear a family resemblance or appear as a tiny version of a strong and positive male ancestor of yours. He’ll be dressed like a typical peasant from the old country with loose pants, an embroidered shirt, and a woven belt wrapped around his waist, but his hairy feet will be bare. It’s not just his feet that are hairy; he’ll be covered with shaggy hair from head to toe. This is a good thing! His hairiness tells you about his well-being. The more hair he has, the happier he is and the more prosperous your home will be.

The Domovyk is known by many names in Slavic countries:

  • Děd, Dĕdek, Děduška, Šetek, Šotek, Skřítek, Domovníček, Hospodáříček (Czech)
  • Did, Didko, Diduch, Domovyk (Ukrainian)
  • Damavik (Belarusian)
  • Škrata, Škriatok (Slovak)
  • Škrat, Škratek (Slovenian)
  • Skrzatek, Skrzat, Skrzot, Domowik, Djadek (Polish)
  • Domovoy, Chozyain, Chozyainuško (Russian)
  • Stopan (Bulgarian)
  • Domaći (Croatian)

A respected and well-loved Domovyk will guard the home and keep out evil or troublesome spirits. He can even contribute to the well- being of the family, letting them know if company is coming or alerting them that there is some good news on the way, for instance. He can wake them up if there is a fire, keep out thieves, and even do some chores around the home while they are asleep. Yes, a Domovyk who is treated with attention and kindness becomes a valued member of the family, offering strong spiritual protection and bringing generous blessings to all.

Invite the blessings of the Domovyk with these 100% beeswax candles as an offering to your ancestor house spirit.
