For the religious man, nature is never exclusively „natural”; it is always charged with a religious value. The world presents itself in such a way that, contemplating it, the religious man discovers multiple modalities of the sacred and therefore of the Homo religiosus, who, focusing Mircea Eliade's attention, perceives the space of his existence in a divided way; he lives in two interfering worlds: one full of meaning, sacred, incorporating himself in the signs of primordiality, a world that recreates the events that happened in illo tempore and another world, without any substance, lacking in consistency, unsacred. Thus, we can talk about the telluric sensitivity in the Romanian mythology, the Romanian popular beliefs preserving a series of interesting archetypal structures, often found at the confluence of the sacred and the profane.
