It’s an ancient Slavic saying and I have no reasons to disagree. One of the pre-Christian traditions that survived to these days is a presence of various charms and protections. Domovoy is the most distinctive representative of Slavic mythology. A rare house would go without this funny character. Domovoy is a house spirit that brings well-being and prosperity, protects the tenants from misery and hardships. Human were forbidden to offend the Domovoy and had to feed him so he would become a great help to the lady of the house. A necessary attribute of any Domovoy is a “domovushka” – a small wisp or a scythe. “Domovushka” was a symbol of abundance and the Domovoys – the best protector from evil forces.
