新年快乐 / 新年快樂 (Xīnnián kuàilè)

For Russians the biggest annual holiday is the New Year. I have done big posts for previous New Years, where I gave recommendations for various New Year’s films, posted holiday music, beautiful images and videos, as well as gave the history and lore of the Winter Holidays. In the end of this post you’ll see the links to my past articles. This time, on the light holiday note I want to share with you some of Russian New Year / Christmas pics and traditions.

So you know, in Russia that well-known magical guy who gives out presents is called ‘Ded Moroz’ (Grandfather Frost). He is the equivalent of the Western Santa, but per Russians, he definitely, no question about it, resides in the ancient town of Veliky Ustyug, in northern Russia.

Here’s Putin, together with Ded Moroz at his official residence in Veliky Ustyug ~

Ded Moroz doesn’t come for Christmas, as in the West. He comes for New Year’s, which is (if I may say so myself) the right way of doing things. 😉

Why? You probably know by now that in fact the figure of Ded Moroz / Santa Claus / San Nickolas is a pagan spirit, or god, of winter. At one point it was absorbed by Western Christianity so that to entice more people to convert. Russian Orthodox Christians, shall we say, were a bit more honest about it.

Regardless of what he’s called and when he comes, we all love and welcome him, along with his companion, who in Russia is his beautiful granddaughter, Snegurochka (snow maiden). Snegurochka is certainly also an original Vedic nature goddess character.

As seen on top pic, Russian Ded Moroz brings his gifts normally in a sleigh pulled by three horses, not by reindeer.

This is the northern Russian version of Ded Moroz, straight out of ancient legends — the true Vedic God of Winter. Look at his outfit (remember my Forbidden History articles on FuturisTrendcast?)

Russian Christmas is celebrated 1 week after New Year. It’s celebrated with old-Russian entertainment and fairs, as well as all-night church vigils and Sviata Vecherya (Sacred Supper).

    Posting link to Putin’s New Year Address to the Nation. I would be interested in Lada’s calibration of this speech. I found it full of love, unity & power.

    I stumbled across this link to English translation of official President of Russia site. If you’re interested you can scroll down and read about Putin’s phone conversations with Netanyahoo on the first, India’s prime minister Modi on the 3rd or click around and check out his schedule. Or you can click on “documents” at the top & read gems like this one dated 12/29/17: Federal law on ratifying Agreement between Russia & Syria in extending Russian Navy’s inventory and logistics support centre area in port of Tartus. Sometimes I think I have a magic mouse.
