Now that you know how to use the search function, please be advised that we have a book on Balkan witchcraft as well; should you encounter any dead mega links in WF Forum Library threse, it's fastest to look for the books on welib.org instead of making a reupload request in the thread concerned. Google gives me another book specifically on Ukranian spirituality but I leave it to your research efforts to find more.

Requesting books in any other language than English is not allowed. Merely asking for recommendations in other languages is ok, I guess.

I was asking for recommendations, i am perfectly capable of searching books anywhere, be it your forum or any other place on the internet, i wasn't looking for a book, i was looking for a person who can recommend their personal opinion, I guess

Following out of interest.

As I understand it, Ukraine is largely Christian now, but of course a time before Christianity likely has some interesting history. This might be a good starting point, searching for history of the region and see what crops up.

Following as well, do you know your geneology? For us it might take more digging unfortunately. I'm also from there, but It's particularly challenging now given the war, but you might have connections to other ethnicities in the locale or that settled long before it was Ukraine (Turkish, Carpathian like you mentioned etc ) that would give you more broad scope for practices that aren't explicitly modern Ukrainian or even Slavic - but are carryovers that may well be traditions you have ethnic roots in. Sometimes this kind of stuff is buried within books on other topics and we have to piece it together. I've been chewing on this lately as I've also been thinking about the implications of occult traditions in that region being suppressed and extinguished for an extensive period of time by Orthodox Christianity and if there's pockets of practitioners quietly carrying the tradition.
