About This Book „Our Slavic ancestors have made amulets, because they believed in their amazing magical powers. The pictures of animals, like hedgehogs, cuckoos, bears and plants such as St. John's wort or fern often served as talismans. This has not changed much over time, and nowadays we continue to look for protection from supernatural forces. What amulets are indispensable in everyday life of a modern Ukrainian? How can you tinker an amulet for Yourself and for Your loved ones? Is a traditional Ukrainian embroidered shirt just a piece of clothing or can it protect against negative influences? Answers to all these questions can be found in this book, which might become Your own talisman on the way to happiness, harmony and peace.“
