Many people believe in signs, consider them signs of fate and warnings against all sorts of ills. Belief in signs is a very common phenomenon that exists among many nationalities and as a result of this a collection of bad and good signs is replenished with new copies.
We all wish happiness to ourselves and our loved ones, try to notice everything that can bring luck and success, surround ourselves with objects that, judging by the signs, should make us happy. And often our faith in good signs acts on us as a self-hypnosis and we really achieve more in our life.
But with bad signs, the situation is slightly more complicated. Well, if a bad omen calls us to be more careful and circumspect, but it's bad if the expectation of an unpleasant event turns into a phobia.
So, let's look at some bad signs
Mirror and signs associated with it
Since ancient times, the mirror has been reckoned to mystical subjects and considered it a gateway between two worlds. That's why, after the death of a man, the mirrors were covered with a cloth, so that the soul of the dead person would not get lost. In the event that someone seriously ill mirrors were also hung up or completely cleaned, as if not allowing the mirror to take the energy of the patient.
Another sign related to the mirror - the prohibition to look at it with a candle in your hands - you can see the creature from the other world. A bad sign is a broken mirror. If it has cracked - wait for difficulties or illnesses, if it is broken - unfortunately. Many believe that all the troubles can be avoided, the main thing is not to look in the fragments, but it is better to get rid of the damaged object altogether.
If something itches
Another common form will take - itches a certain part of the body. Everyone knows the statement, if it itches the left hand - you should wait for money, the right one - to the meeting of an old friend or a new acquaintance. He will rejoice his right eye - to joy, left - to tears. In order to avoid tears, it is necessary to rub both eyes simultaneously.
Itches ears - to change the weather, according to another belief - the right ear - to praise, the left - to gossip or abuse.
Signs of the year, days, months
These are the signs associated with certain time frames. At our ancestors such signs were connected basically with forecasts of productivity, aridity, rainy, etc. All these signs have survived to the present day and are actively used by both the elderly and young people.
Signs of the summer:
- saw a clear sunset - wait for clear, sunny weather the next day.
- cumulus clouds high in the sky - to a thunderstorm.
- if there is abundant dew on the meadow, the day will be hot, the absence of dew speaks of a rainy day.
Signs of winter:
- Cold winter indicates a hot summer.
- early snow fell early - to be early spring.
- snowy winter - to dry years, heavy snowfalls in the beginning of winter promise heavy rains in early summer.
- cold February is a harbinger of a hot August.
Signs of the day:
- In the morning I got up from my right foot - the day will be successful.
- Starry night - to a warm day.
- barking at night portends a hurricane or earthquake.
All these interpretations of meaning will take - the result of long observations of our ancestors. They accumulated in the course of their life and passed on from mouth to mouth to descendants. Some of them have lost their relevance, and others have become even more popular than before. Now there are new signs. Basically, they are associated with a love relationship, for example: a broken heel - to quarrel with a loved one or: get together in the rain - to a long happy life together, etc. As we see, modern people do not believe in omens, they not only adhere to old beliefs , but even they themselves participate in the creation of new ones.
