Abstract
Folklore is part of Folklore, which is part of culture that is traditional, informal, and national. One of the functions of Folklore as a folklore is as a "myth" that controls humans to do or to forbid humans to do something. Central Javanese Folklore contains "myths" of nature conservation, such as forests, mountains, plants, rivers, and lakes. As a "myth", this form of human control is conveyed indirectly, through symbols that must be interpreted by the reader. Through hermeneutic reading, it is known that the natural preservation policy of the traditional community of Central Java is conveyed through the symbol that the nature is haunted / wingit, is a kingdom of spirits, and does not uproot plants. Through the symbol of "haunted", "kingdom of spirits" and "not uprooting plants" it is hoped that the reader / community will not damage nature because if it is done it will be what will happen.
