Elden som skyddar och f\u00f6renar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

N\u00e4r m\u00f6rkret faller \u00f6ver p\u00e5skaftonskv\u00e4llen lyser stora eldar upp landskapet, s\u00e4rskilt l\u00e4ngs den svenska v\u00e4stkusten. P\u00e5skbrasan<\/strong>, eller p\u00e5skelden som den ofta kallas, \u00e4r en av v\u00e5ra mest visuella och st\u00e4mningsfulla traditioner. Men bakom den sprakande v\u00e4rmen d\u00f6ljer sig en historia om magi, vidskepelse och kampen mot det onda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ett f\u00f6rsvar mot Bl\u00e5kullaf\u00e4rden<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Precis som med p\u00e5sksm\u00e4llarna har p\u00e5skbrasan sitt ursprung i gammal folktro kopplad till h\u00e4xor. Man trodde att h\u00e4xorna \u00e5terv\u00e4nde fr\u00e5n Bl\u00e5kulla<\/a> p\u00e5 p\u00e5skaftonen efter att ha bes\u00f6kt dj\u00e4vulen. Elden tj\u00e4nade som ett kraftfullt skydd; r\u00f6ken och flammorna sades hindra de onda v\u00e4sendena fr\u00e5n att landa och g\u00f6ra skada p\u00e5 g\u00e5rden eller boskapen. F\u00f6r att g\u00f6ra elden extra effektiv kastade man ofta in saker som luktade illa eller sm\u00e4llde, som gammalt gummi eller krut, f\u00f6r att skr\u00e4mma bort allt \u00f6vernaturligt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Geografiskt f\u00e4ste i v\u00e4st<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I Sverige finns en tydlig uppdelning n\u00e4r det g\u00e4ller h\u00f6gtidseldar. Medan man i \u00f6stra Sverige och M\u00e4lardalen fr\u00e4mst t\u00e4nder brasor p\u00e5 valborgsm\u00e4ssoafton (majbrasor), har p\u00e5skelden sitt starkaste f\u00e4ste i Bohusl\u00e4n, V\u00e4sterg\u00f6tland och Halland<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I dessa landskap \u00e4r p\u00e5skbrasan ofta en stor social h\u00e4ndelse. Grannar och byalag t\u00e4vlar ibland informellt om vem som kan bygga den st\u00f6rsta och mest imponerande ”v\u00e5len”, som brasorna kallas i vissa delar av Bohusl\u00e4n. Det \u00e4r en tid f\u00f6r gemenskap d\u00e4r man samlas, grillar korv och ser de sista resterna av vintern g\u00e5 upp i r\u00f6k.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Milj\u00f6 och s\u00e4kerhet i modern tid<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Idag har den magiska inneb\u00f6rden bleknat, men suget efter den gemensamma elden best\u00e5r. I modern tid \u00e4r dock s\u00e4kerheten och milj\u00f6n i fokus. Det kr\u00e4vs ofta polistillst\u00e5nd f\u00f6r att anordna offentliga p\u00e5skeldar, och man \u00e4r noga med att inte elda plast eller annat milj\u00f6farligt avfall som man gjorde f\u00f6rr. Dessutom \u00e4r det viktigt att kontrollera brasan innan den t\u00e4nds s\u00e5 att inga sm\u00e5djur, som igelkottar, har valt att \u00f6vervintra i rish\u00f6gen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

P\u00e5skbrasan st\u00e5r idag som en flammande symbol f\u00f6r \u00f6verg\u00e5ngen fr\u00e5n m\u00f6rker till ljus. Det \u00e4r en varm tradition som p\u00e5minner oss om v\u00e5rt behov av att samlas kring elden f\u00f6r att tillsammans h\u00e4lsa v\u00e5ren v\u00e4lkommen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
