Mokosh was celebrated as the goddess of fertility, mother of gods. Together with Svarog, she is responsible for the creation of the human race. She is the protector of women and household chores, she helps women in labor and protects their children. Many customs celebrate Mokosh as the protector of yarn women. As she was always connected to spindle and distaff, people would connect her to Fates. More precisely, it was believed that Mokosh spins the thread of a man’s destiny and makes decisions about his life and death. MOKOŠ se kod Slovena slavi kao Boginja plodnosti i sudbine koja je, zajedno sa Svarogom, zaslužna za stvaranje ljudi. Zaštitnica je žena i ženskih poslova vezanih za vođenje domaćinstva, pomaže porodiljama i štiti njihovu decu. Mnogi običaji vezani su za Mokoš kao zaštitnicu predilja. Kako je vezana za vreteno i preslicu, ljudi su je oduvek povezivali i sa Suđajama, tačnije, verovalo se da Mokoš ispreda niti čovekove sudbine i odlučuje o životu i smrti. Od ovog verovanja ostao je običaj da bebama vezujemo crveni konac oko ruke – kao molbu Mokoši da ih čuva od zla i podari ima dug život.
