Origin:

slavic

Name Root:

jarŭ / yáriy sláva > Jarosláv

Meaning:*

This name derives from the Slavic “Jarosláv ‎(Яросла́в)”, composed of two Old Church Slavonic elements: “jarŭ ‎(*jarъ) yáriy (я́рий)” (furious, angry, eager, impetuous) plus “sláva ‎(сла́ва)” (glory, fame, renown, honor, repute, reputation). In turn, the name means “one who is famous and renowned for his fury.” Jarilo is a Proto-Slavic deity of the sun, spring, and fertility. However, with the adoption of Christianity in the Slavic countries, the name began to be commonly understood not as a reference to a pagan deity, but rather to the “fervent worship of God.” Yaroslav I was thrice Grand Prince of Novgorod and Kiev, uniting the two principalities for a time under his rule.

Color meaning: Black

Black is the color of the hidden, the secretive and the unknown, creating an air of mystery. It keeps things bottled up inside, hidden from the world. In color psychology the meaning of the color black is protection from external emotional stress. It creates a barrier between itself and the outside world, providing comfort while protecting its emotions and feelings, and hiding its vulnerabilities, insecurities and lack of self-confidence. In times of fear and uncertainty black contains the energy of the threatening unknown. In a positive state, black is seen as a restful emptiness into which anything may emerge and disappear once again. It is also mysterious, providing a sense of potential and possibility.
