Why can't you keep empty jars and old things at home?

Clothes, shoes, furniture, textiles, dishes and equipment - all things in the house carry their own energy. It is not for nothing that for several millennia there have been practices for arranging homes and storing things, among which the most popular is the teaching of Feng Shui. Is it possible to keep old things in the house according to folk wisdom, how to store them correctly? Signs say that this should not be done, but this applies to “orphan” things that are not used.

Empty cans in the house: signs and superstitions

People have many superstitions regarding different objects and situations. Often, harmless household items, such as empty cans, are blamed for life's troubles. Keeping them in the house leads to an outflow of finances, quarrels, illnesses and various failures.

Empty cans

It’s worth making a reservation right away: only those cans that are not used but continue to stick out on the shelves, collecting dust and negative energy, disturb the energy. For housewives who annually deal with twisting, glass containers are an integral attribute that has nothing to do with “trash.” More on this later, but first let’s look at what’s really bad about empty glass containers:

  1. An empty jar symbolizes a life lived in vain. For an active and active person and family man, this is an unacceptable element in the household.
  2. An empty container is a sign of poverty. This is why empty banks are blamed for financial failures.
  3. Storing empty and dirty cans is especially discouraged.This is direct evidence of disrespect for the house, and if you believe in them, then for the brownies.
  4. You shouldn’t store cracked glass, and it’s not just a matter of signs. Broken and glued dishes symbolize poverty; damage attracts quarrels in the family and illnesses of loved ones. Such containers are dangerous: they can break at any moment and harm your health.

All beliefs apply to empty glass bottles. In general, we are talking about things that needlessly take up space in a house/apartment. Therefore, the magazine purity-en.htgetrid.com recommends throwing away what is not useful and keeping the rest clean. From time to time, brushing off the dust from the dishes will help you remember about them and use them for their intended purpose when needed.

Advice
According to popular belief, a broken glass jar in the house is a “bell”: think about what needs to be urgently improved in your life.

Why you shouldn't keep old things

Our well-being and prosperity largely depend on the situation in our home. Please note that fresh ideas come faster at a clean desk, food tastes better in a tidy kitchen, and a neatly furnished bedroom improves your sleep patterns and personal life. Old things are a very tangible reason for various difficulties in life.

Old things

Firstly, trash is the main obstacle to the flow of vital energy and the emergence of something new. Old things take up space, and holding on to them means postponing positive changes. There is simply no room for anything new, both literally and figuratively.

There are items that not only clutter the house, but also prevent some bad situations from getting over. They are stored in the apartment like memories, poisoning the atmosphere. Here are some old things that need to be gotten rid of urgently:

  1. Old shoes. This is especially true for those boots that are no longer suitable for wearing in any form, even in the country.
  2. Torn, moth-eaten clothes.
  3. Broken and glued objects. Mirrors are especially dangerous - these magical attributes, when cracked, will attract nothing but trouble into the house. There is also a danger of accidentally cutting yourself when using chipped dishes.
  4. Old dishes It is dangerous not only due to chips, but also because harmful bacteria accumulate in it. This way you can accidentally get poisoned.
  5. Faulty clock symbolize stagnation and even death. Either repair it if the item has value, or get rid of it.
  6. Household appliances that are out of order, will pull normally working devices along with it.
  7. There is also information garbage that you need to get rid of as soon as possible: magazines, newspapers, calendars, some books, photographs and other images with a negative message. We ourselves do not notice how pictures and inscriptions affect our emotional state.
  8. Ritual items, amulets with defects, stuffed animals and skins, horns, shells and even dried flowers are also considered inauspicious.
  9. Dirt. It sounds stupid, but don't keep it in the house. Things that will be needed in the future should be sent to the closet washed and cleaned. Remove dust from shelves, objects and covers with clothes regularly.
  10. Old cleaning accessories. They already regularly collect not the most positive energies. The most undesirable item for cleaning is an old, peeling broom. Moreover, do not keep an old broken mop in your house, left over from the previous owners - someone else’s negativity will easily stick to your house.

Old newspapers, dishes, watches and things

The second, no less important reason to throw away old things is health problems.Popular beliefs say that clutter is a direct path to illness, both physical and mental.

Advice
Storing the deceased’s belongings is permissible only as a memory, and the use of such items can darken the energy of the room. Store such items separately.

Note: In apartments and houses that are always tidy, harmonious relationships reign in the family. And vice versa: if the room is in disrepair, something needs repair, there is dirt and unnecessary old stuff everywhere, people often quarrel and do not understand each other. Repairing and decluttering in this case can become a positive practice towards harmonizing relationships.

Things of other owners

If you moved into a new apartment and there are things from the previous owners, we advise you to get rid of them. How do you know what these people were like, how relationships were built in their family? Items bear a strong imprint of the previous owner. If he had bad thoughts, all this can migrate into your life.

Old stuff in the house

How to harmonize space and energy

If something causes you noticeable psychological and physical discomfort, then think - is this thing really needed in the household? Think about the practical side of the issue: will you ever need those old shabby slippers, faded sweaters and stretched T-shirts again? If things can be used in the household, find them a new role or donate them to those in need. If not, throw it away.

What about banks? Housewives who regularly prepare food and believe in omens recommend placing empty containers outside of residential areas. In the pantry, garage, on the mezzanine, in another utility room.There they will lie quietly until the next use and will not cause trouble, and in addition, they will not get in the way, spoil the appearance of the rooms, and an accidental shock will not break valuable containers.

Jars and preparations in the pantry

If there is nowhere to put a rack with empty cans except in the kitchen or living loggia, use a trick: turn the cans upside down or fill them with dry products, various small items, colored sand or beads. In any case, the jars must be kept clean - this is important for energy, aesthetics, and hygiene, because food will then be placed in the container.

After cleaning, fill the house with fresh energy - you will immediately feel it. Some conflict situations that were provoked by an excessive amount of rubbish will resolve themselves. Instead of objects that carry negativity, put something you love in a prominent place. Get indoor flowers with positive symbolism, buy new curtains, new dishes, etc.

Cleanliness in the house

But what is still worth storing? Old things that carry positive energy and pleasant memories. Even if it is a useless souvenir, it will please the eye and fill the house with comfort.

Folk wisdom should not always be ignored: listen to these tips if some phenomena associated with old things cause you vague concern. But don’t get carried away by superstitions, remember: we ourselves endow the signs with power.
