I wonder if Jarilo is the same as Jarovit/Gerovit of Wolgast?

Yes it is same god. He is known as Jarilo, Jarila, Jarovit or Jarun. And it that chronicle they describe only his warrior side, and they compare it to Mars(who was also a god of spring, growth in nature, and fertility, beside his warrior side.)

Silni,
There is an entry on Yarilo in The Joy of Knowledge Encyclopedia, Vol. 53 (Fact File: XI) and it reads:
"Yarilo, in Slavic mythology, a god of spring and regeneration and of sexual love. He was depicted as a flower-crowned young man on a white horse. Each spring a planting rite was performed in his honour and in summer a ritual was held in which his effigy was ceremonially buried."
On the contrary, the description above differs largely from this half-naked, sword-bearing Yarilo. The flower crown on his head is correct but I believe he has many representations, though.

Well that is short description, and it is correct.
I tried to represent as many attributes of Yarilo as I could. This picture was made after long study of old chronicles, folk ritual songs and ethnological studies.

What I cannot bear to look at this picture is that Yarilo doesn't wear clothes.
No wonder sarahsmiles16 called him hot! XD
And, by the way Silni, what symbol is that tattooed on Yarilo's waist?

He have tattooed two wolfs. It is said that he is shepherd of wolfs. And that wolfs are his dogs. I wanted to present that by drawing him tattoo of wolfs.

К своему стыду скажу - про сексуальную мощь не знала. А картинка правда очень хороша вышла - светлая и вдохновляющая))

Hvala.
Najviše sam inspiracije pronašao u delu hrvatskog lingviste, istoričara i kulturologa Radoslava Katičića - "Zeleni lug".
