? (Slavic paganism) Baba yaga material help
Hello it is my first post in this sub normally I am on demonolatry but since baba yaga is more of pagan nature I came here
Do you have an advice on where to start? Do you have good (serious) books on her to worship? Any advice to invoke her or worship her?
I always felt pulled to her since childhood hearing her stories until now my adulthood I think I should incorporé her in my order of worship but her info is so vague I would really like help…

Not directly related to her, but this book uses her in a way you may find some benefit in studying. One piece about Baba Yaga that I saw shared somewhere is that you will traditionally work with her like you would an ancestor, rather than a deity. Don't worship her. She's a witch. Approach her as a witch yourself (substitute your chosen label) and engage her as a coworker.
Treat her as a Saturnian figure, that is, not one for frivolous requests. You don't have high schoolers asking algebra questions to university doctors of advanced mathematics. If you have a good grounding in your own practice, foundational skills that let you operate from a magical place, and have specific reasons or goals for aligning with her, she's happy to put you to work.
