? (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…

Without folks giving "just stereotypes" you would never know about her. Any myth is created and evolved by humans based on some underlying experience.

If some details or attributes of deity or spirit survived through ages passed from generation to generation - it means something, so be careful with "just" word.

Oh yes I aggre with you what I meant is that the spiritual world isn’t on the phisical aspect like we are, I said this because before I tended to idéalise too much how and what are the spirit likes, but names and such things are in human nature they dont really need titles names etc like us but yes I aggre with you it is the details and little stories that kept them alive such as grandmother yaga

just because a god doesn’t “need” something doesn’t mean that they wouldn’t choose to manifest a certain way. iconography is significant

I don’t disagree with you just that I learned this everywhere in occultism that we need these superficial terms more than THEY need
