Born under Rod
Rod is kin, birth and the order that runs through a family from ancestor to child. You carry the structure others lean on: memory, duty, the sense of how things are done. You are the keeper of the line, and the line is stronger for you.

About the Slavic Mythology gods
The old Slavic gods survive in folk custom more than in texts, so this table follows the numbers' characters: Dazhbog the giving sun, Mokosh the moist earth, Svarog the sky-smith, down to Perun, whose thunder was the sky's own war. It is a reading, not a reconstruction.

Frequently Asked Questions About Numerology
- How is Rod linked to the number 4?
- Through the psychic number of Vedic numerology: the day of the month you were born, reduced to one digit. Each pantheon on this site assigns one god to each number from 1 to 9, and Rod holds 4 in the Slavic Mythology table.
- Is this a traditional Slavic Mythology belief?
- No. The gods and their domains are traditional; pairing them with birth numbers is a modern numerological reading, and it is presented here as reflection rather than doctrine.
- What if my life path is different from my birth day number?
- They are two different numbers. This page follows the day of the month; the life path uses your whole date of birth and has its own pages under Numbers.
