Zorya or Zara or Zoryushka is a feminine manifestation of Dawn, most probably as a Goddess, in Slavic folk-stories. Traditionally she may differ either as a single individual namely the -The Red Maiden- or a Collection of two or three sisters simultaneously. As a Celestial entity she is associated as the Sister of Sun and the Moon and also identified with Morning Star. Her duty is to open the Royal Gates of the Palace of the Sun, where she lives, so that Sun could go out in His Journey across the Celestial sky. She also has the duty to protect His Horses. Though etymologically the word Zorya is not related to the PIE term for dawn i.e. Haéusōs , her features all relate with Her. The basic similarities of the Zoryas of Slavic folklore and Rig-Vedic, Indo-Ar*yan - Usha and Partyusha, the Dawns accompanying the Sun, is striking. There are similar motif depiction found in both so-distant cultures where Two women, with one holding torch to light the path of the Sun and other expecting it to return at Sunset, is very surprisingly depicted similarly. While one is depicted at Chludov Psalter at Novgorod, from late 13th C.E., the other is found at Cave Temple at Nashik in India. The Zoryas are believed to live in the mysterious, sacred Island Buyan and to practitioners of Zavogory in East Slavic heritage she is the highest entity to whom the practitioners appeals to. In Russian there is a further saying that -- The sun will not rise without the Morning Zoryushka.
