THE CALL OF THE GOBBIE RITUAL

HISTORY OF THE CALL OF THE LESHY RITUAL

The ritual is known for its speed of fulfilling requests, due to the call of the Leshy, the spirit-master of the forest in the mythology of the Eastern Slavs, who possesses enormous power. On the one hand, he was considered an evil spirit, but on the other hand, he was considered a fair master of the forest who could help a person. The Leshy could ensure good luck, but it was necessary to bring him a gift and make a contract with him. The Leshy was credited with the ability to predict the future, in connection with which some rituals are associated with fortune telling.

The ritual was passed from mouth to mouth with extreme caution, for fear of losing the spirit's favor. One day, the ritual was sold to a clerk for a few coins. The clerk used the ritual, so to speak, not as intended: he wanted the wood goblin to take away someone else's wealth. Since time immemorial, it has been believed that asking for "empty things," that is, for something a person does not need, but simply to take revenge or take someone else's, could anger the wood goblin, and thus he could take revenge on the one asking. In short, the clerk lost all his property, and the story about him remained instructive for a long time.
