В древности люди не могли понять, как человек берет железо, которое твердо, крепко и с помощью огня превращает его в другие предметы. Это был очень сакральный образ. Поэтому у нас есть фамилии, связанные с лексемой "кузнец" самые распространенные во всем мире. В украинском языке – Коваль, Коваленко, Ковальчук и так далее. В России – Кузнецов, в Польше – Ковальские, в Германии – Шмидт, в Англии – Смит. Это все связано с кузнечным делом, потому что это самая сакральная профессия на земле. Вспомните, к примеру, сказки. Где кузнец идет к Змею, чтобы перековать голос, потому что именно кузнец может перековать.



Currently, winter in Ukraine is primarily associated with carols, which are sung on the holiday of Christmas (January 6-8 according to the new style). But carols were once pagan songs, against which the Orthodox Church initially waged an unsuccessful struggle and banned them. However, Kolyada rites proved to be very stable in Ukraine, marked in many ways by the features of pagan beliefs, reminiscent of both honoring the newborn sun and the cult of ancestors.

"Shedryvky" are ritual songs performed on a generous evening, the evening on the eve of the new year. They usually began with the words of greeting: "Generous evening, good evening." In the distant past, this type of song differed from other holiday songs, today it differs in that it is sung in Ukraine and in Ukrainian-speaking villages of the region. At the time when we now celebrate Christmas, once upon a time, even before Christianity, in Ukraine there was a holiday of the winter solstice. It was the time of divination for the coming year; and that is why we still have a whole series of pre-Christian elements in Christmas customs, whose purpose was to call for a good harvest in the following year, wealth and prosperity in the house of the master, lucky catches for the hunter, a wedding for a girl and a happy journey for a young man - a prince's wife or the prince himself. All the natural forces of nature are appeased and called upon not to harm people and livestock.
