A sign to brush crumbs off the table with your hand. The magic of the dining table. Signs and superstitions
The table in the old days symbolized the level of family wealth and happiness. A large number of signs and superstitions are associated with the table, which from ancient times helped our ancestors to attract good luck and prosperity to the house. Consider the most popular signs and beliefs about the table.
- You can't argue at the dinner table, knocking on it with a spoon, you can not play. In the old days, the table was considered "the hand of God", and all the dishes appeared on it at the mercy of the Almighty. So in every family the table was treated with respect, so as not to anger God.
- You can not wipe the crumbs from the table with your hand- there will be no money. It was also impossible to wipe the table with paper - this is a bad omen, to gossip and squabbles.
- Do not put empty dishes on the table is to poverty. Prosperity in the family was judged by the table. If he is bursting with food, then everything is in order with prosperity. If there is nothing on the table, or the dishes are empty, then the pockets are empty. Putting empty bottles or plates on the table, you thereby incur lack of money.
- Gathered on the road - hold on to the edge of the table. This folk sign meant that a person, going on a journey, would take with him the protection of his home and family.
- The table began to wobble- a bad omen. This means that the oldest member of the family will fall ill in the house. In the old days, such tables were immediately disposed of so as not to bring trouble.
- Do not put bags on the table, money and other things not related to food. This is a sign of disrespect for the house.
- To attract good luck and prosperity in the house, you can put a coin under the tablecloth. You can also put a bay leaf - this will attract good luck, save you from illnesses and conflicts in the family.
- Do not leave dirt or crumbs on the table at night - to the disease. Each time brushing the crumbs off the table, you seem to be conducting a ritual to eliminate problems, illnesses and troubles. If you leave dirt on the table, you are bringing bad things into your home.
- Something fell off the table- to surprise. If a spoon or fork - be guests. If a plate falls - be news.
All these folk signs and superstitions are based on centuries-old observations of our ancestors. To believe them or not to believe is everyone's business.

Superstitions and omens are of great importance: they tell us when good luck awaits us, and warn about ...
In the old days, going to the field to work or wander around the world, people always took a loaf of bread with them. In difficult times for the country, when the population received bread on cards- people were kind even to the crumbs, and sometimes they saved others from starvation, sharing with them an already modest share ...
“There will be bread - there will be lunch”, “if there was bread, but there will be people with bread”, “if you want to eat - you will talk about bread”, “there is a land of bread - there will be paradise under the spruce”, “lunch is bad if there is no bread” - these are just a few of the many proverbs about bread. Isn't this evidence that bread is revered and revered at all times?
From early childhood, parents teach us to respect the bread. “Don’t throw bread on the floor”, “don’t play with bread” - isn’t it true that each of us heard such instructions even before he learned to speak? We ourselves have firmly mastered these rules and now we teach our children the same. However, in addition to the simplest rules, the meaning of which we understand clearly and do not even try to read between the lines, there are a lot of signs and superstitions, the meaning of which remains a mystery to many people. This is the topic of today's article.
If, while eating, you grabbed a new piece of bread, and then found that you had a half-eaten piece left on your plate, it means that someone close to you is currently feeling hungry (or in need).
If during a festive lunch (dinner) a piece of bread fell from the table - someone is in a hurry to visit you. If bread fell on weekdays (an ordinary lunch), then an unnecessary person is in a hurry to your house.
If you leave bread crumbs on the dining table at night, diseases will come into the house.
Sloppy cut bread - to trouble, hard life (uneven cut - the same uneven life).
Starting a new loaf after sunset - to a poor life.
Carelessly eat, dropping bread crumbs on the floor - to crop failure, poverty.
Putting a loaf upside down on the table - close the doors of your house for joy and good luck (turned bread is a symbol of misfortune, everything in the house will turn upside down).
Leave your piece of bread half-eaten - leave your happiness (if someone else ate it, they took yours for themselves). Another version - to disturbing, bad dreams.
Throwing bread in the trash - inviting need, hunger, illness.
Prick bread with a fork (for a girl) - deprive yourself of happiness.
Eat moldy bread - protect yourself from death in the water.
To let someone eat bread behind your back is to let that person take your strength.
Giving bread to someone at sunset - to debt.
If, during baking, a part of the loaf separated and “left” to the side, one of the relatives will have to travel.
If the loaf breaks when cutting - to a quarrel between husband and wife.
Sharing bread with those who need it, even if it is the last slice - to prosperity in the house and a rich life.
Start and end a meal with a piece of bread and salt - to a happy life.
If you were greeted with freshly baked bread, this promises you wealth.
If, when cutting a loaf, the crumb sticks to the knife blade, next summer will bring with it a rich harvest. According to another version, rainy weather will last for a long time.

How bread was used as a talisman:
Bread was often placed in a baby's cradle.
They took it with them, setting off on a journey, so that it would protect them from troubles.
They put it where the body of the deceased lay, so that bread would triumph over death, and the deceased would not take fertility with him.
They were taken out of the house to the street when a thunderstorm was approaching in order to protect the crops from severe adversity.
During the beginning of the fire, they went around the house with bread to stop the fire.
This is interesting: in the fishing villages of Northern England, it was forbidden to turn a loaf of bread (bottom up). It was believed that every time someone did this, one ship turned over in the sea.
I would like to mention one more thing. Of course, Easter cake is not exactly bread, but still ...
It is believed that if a depression (depression) has formed on the cake, this portends the death of one of the family members. The sign is gloomy and, on the one hand, failed baking can be explained by “hands growing from the wrong place”, “stale yeast”, “unverified recipe”, etc. But, on the other hand, when you cook from year to year Easter cakes according to one recipe, you are careful about the choice of products, observing proportions, as well as cooking technology - and suddenly, for no apparent reason - all Easter cakes turned out to be “with holes”, this cannot but alert. I didn’t even know about such a sign when I took a whole baking sheet of failed Easter cakes out of the oven two years ago. That same year we lost our grandmother. And later I found out about this sign.
Consider, using a specific example, how to explain the signs and superstitions associated with bread:
Don't shake breadcrumbs off the table with your bare hand.
If an unmarried girl brushes crumbs off the table with her palm, she risks living alone all her life and not knowing what it is to be a mother. For a married girl, sweeping away crumbs means ruining relations with her mother-in-law. If a man shakes off the crumbs with his hand, his wife will be bald. And in general, shaking bread crumbs off the table with your hand - to quarrels in the house, lack of money.
Where do the legs of these signs grow from? One of the most logical versions is related to the attitude to bread as a shrine. It is simply a sin to shake bread crumbs on the floor, while many people in the world are dying of hunger or living in poverty, feeding from garbage cans. Bread symbolizes prosperity in the house and, brushing off the leftovers from the table with an uncovered hand, we thereby shake off prosperity and all the good that we have (we simply get rid of it) into the void. Another reasonable explanation: for many people, the gesture with which crumbs are swept away is associated with the gesture of the beggars, and a subconscious fear arises that by doing this, you are trying on the role of a beggar, dooming yourself to a beggarly existence. You can also draw another parallel: if bread crumbs can be shaken off the surface of the table with your hand, then it is smooth, that is, without a tablecloth (for many people, both in past times and now, a tablecloth on a table is associated with prosperity in the house, and its absence - says the opposite).
Of course, there are signs and superstitions that today seem to us very absurd, and even funny. In particular, the superstition "if a man sweeps crumbs off the table with his bare hand, he will have a bald wife." But not all signs and superstitions can be explained logically. And how to treat them is a personal matter for everyone. It is likely that with the help of such horror stories they simply intimidated people who were not affected by other signs (“there will be no money”, “to strife in the family”). Some men stubbornly continued to shake the crumbs on the floor - and an attempt was made to intimidate them in another way. Later, this attempt grew into another superstition. Or maybe the corresponding conclusion is based on someone's real experience and observations. Although, it is quite difficult to imagine that in some families where men swept crumbs from the table with an uncovered palm and in fact there were bald spouses - it is quite difficult.

Why dream of bread?
According to Freud's dream book: one who eats bread in his dreams - in real life he missed normal human relationships (tired of endless non-committal meetings). Seeing fresh warm bread in a dream - portends a meeting with an energetic person who is easy on life, stale bread - symbolizes a long-standing relationship that has become obsolete and has become uninteresting to you.
According to Miller's dream book: a woman eating bread in a dream promises to face sorrows and worries in real life. Sharing bread with someone means that you are provided for in real life, and you should not expect more from fate. Seeing a lot of dry bread in a dream portends suffering and a poor life. Eating bread made from rye flour is a sign of a friendly, hospitable home. Seeing a crust of bread in your hands in a dream is a warning that it will be very difficult for you to cope with the coming troubles due to neglect of your duties.
According to Vanga's dream book: to see bread in a dream - to a comfortable life, making a profit. Eating bread - says that without much effort a benefit will be obtained in some business. Cutting bread - to obstacles in business, temporary difficulties.
According to the Vedic dream book: to eat good bread in a dream - to longevity and good health, to eat black (burnt) bread - to a funeral.
According to the gypsy dream book: to see how someone handed you a loaf - to the birth of a child. Cut bread - share luck with others. Eat fresh bread - have good friends, stale bread - to a possible illness.
According to the wanderer's dream book: bread dreams of prosperity in the house, good prospects in business.

It is enough to observe folk signs that indicate exactly what needs to be done in order to make money.
Table
So, a significant part of the signs about money is connected with the table. If the table performs an intermediary function, then a trifle thrown on it or the keys to the house directly fall into the other world. And it is not surprising that a person who transferred to such a place “the key to the apartment where the money is” has financial difficulties.
Void Symbols
Emptiness and everything that symbolizes it are very dangerous for money and well-being. Therefore, an empty bottle is an object that is completely out of place on the table. One of the symbols of emptiness is a whistle. Hence, apparently, there was a ban on whistling in the house. Another analogue of emptiness is everything naked, undisguised. Therefore, sweeping crumbs from the table with a bare palm - to lack of money. The hand should be covered with a rag, and the table with a tablecloth. No wonder folk wisdom advises keeping a few bills under the tablecloth. If there is no tablecloth, oilcloth can replace it.
Order in the house
So, put things in order on the table, and at the same time in the house. Do not scatter keys anywhere. Donate empty bottles. Sweep in the house, because any garbage corresponds to the category of the otherworldly. But keep in mind that there should be only one broom in the house, buying it, you can’t bargain, and you need to store it upside down with a whisk, not a handle. Revenge is necessary from the threshold, otherwise you will sweep away all the money. Once done, sit down and wait for the result.
Banknotes in your wallet
In order for the money earned to love your home, you cannot spend a single cent on the day of your salary, the entire amount must spend the night at home. Some priests of worldly wisdom advise you to keep a large bill for a year, which, they say, "charged" with your energy, will begin to attract money.
All banknotes must face the owner. In the smallest compartment, store a one dollar bill folded into a triangle. Also, there should be a "lucky coin" in the wallet (the first one earned, received from a good person, from a successful transaction, etc.). This coin cannot be spent - it is a happy talisman of prosperity, otherwise the money will be offended and will not go into hands.
Won, ill-earned, found, donated, etc. do not bring happiness and therefore should not linger in your wallet. Give them to those in need or spend them immediately.
Attention! There will be no money if...
whistle indoors,
clean the crumbs from the table with your hand,
to lend bread and salt to a neighbor,
keep your wallet empty (let it contain at least a coin).
In all these cases, wealth can leave your home and go to another family.
Money: borrow or lend?
The best time to ask for a raise is Wednesday afternoon.
Don't borrow on Monday, don't lend on Tuesday, and don't repay on Friday.
Give and lend by all means in the morning, because. any actions with money in the evening promise ruin.
In general, try never to borrow, but more often to lend, as if you are programming money so that they return to you.

Wallet is important!
Magic can do anything, and it can be successfully applied to such an important item as a wallet. With its help, you will gradually start to receive money: you can find a large bill on the street, someone will return an old debt, or, finally, they will increase wages at work. Or maybe everything will happen at once, suddenly and unexpectedly.
So, wallets are different: heavy leather, light made of transparent polyethylene or soft suede. The main task for us is to learn how to attract money. After all, it is always nice to know that there will definitely be an extra bill in your wallet for a gift or for some unplanned yummy.
Let's start with the wallet itself. If the old one is already fed up and you are looking for a new one - take your time! Think carefully before buying the first one you see. Firstly, you should not buy a very cheap wallet. It itself carries the energy of poverty, and large bills have almost no chance of being in it.
This, of course, does not mean that you have to put your entire salary on a new wallet in the hope that the money will magically return. Let the wallet be solid, stylish, such as happens with people who have taken place in life. It must have compartments for coins and large bills.
Material
In fact, the material is not so important, but polyethylene is definitely not suitable for a wallet. Even if you are a fan of high-tech style, you can pick up an original wallet made of leather or suede. Polyethylene does not carry any material energies. Moreover, due to its artificiality, it blocks the access of natural energy. So, the most suitable materials are leather and suede. You can also buy a cloth wallet.
Color
The choice of color for the wallet is not so wide - these are earth and metal shades. These include brown, black, variations of yellow and gold.
So, we have a wallet, now we need to fill it out. There is a belief that in the wallet there must be the smallest fiat coin, which is simply a symbol of money. Usually it is 1 kopeck or ruble. Put a coin apart from all other coins, let it slowly attract wealth.
One folk remedy works very effectively: you need to put a piece of horseradish root in your wallet. This plant collects material energies in very large quantities. Such a concentrate of energies for the wallet will not hurt.
Horseradish, of course, you can buy, but it would be best if you dig this plant yourself in the summer in your country house, dry it and put a small piece of the root in your wallet so that it does not accidentally fall out. This tool has been tested for centuries. In addition, material energies are collected in large quantities in the heather. Its small branch can also be put in a wallet pocket.
Many wallets have such transparent inserts in which photos of the husband or children are embedded. Under no circumstances should this be done! Firstly, photographs "interrupt" cash flows of energy, and secondly, the energies of the wallet and the money itself can influence your loved ones through photographs. This, of course, rarely happens, but it happens that such energies can lower the energy level of a loved one to the material plane.
It is better to store documents, photos and credit cards in a purse, and only money should be in a wallet. Let nothing prevent them from "multiplying" there. Following these simple rules, you can soon experience a noticeable improvement in material well-being.
What does your wallet say about you?
LARGE, TYPICALLY FEMALE- you are a thorough, economic lady. You don’t like unplanned surprises, you prefer everything in your life to be laid out “on the shelves”.
EXPENSIVE WALLET FROM GOOD LEATHER- you, apparently, devote a lot of time to your appearance. The main thing for you is the admiration and recognition of others!
WALLETS- most likely, you are a successful business woman who confidently walks through life. You are not afraid to seem extravagant!
YOU DO NOT HAVE A WALLET-and you put money in your pockets and bags. Most likely, you have a creative profession. Often you simply do not have enough time to implement all your many plans and ideas!
After reading this article, you probably realized that money is very easy to lose and also easy to lure them to you. In order not to lose money, follow the above rules!
In the old days, every person knew the signs for the house. Observance of household superstitions promises good luck and money, prevents troubles and helps to predict the future without guesswork. We recommend following the precepts of the ancestors and joining the folk wisdom.
Household superstitions - the meaning of the threshold
In Slavic signs about the house, the threshold was identified with a portal to another dimension, the boundary between the world of spirits and familiar reality. From here take the roots of superstition about the treatment of infants. The patient is allegedly forever handed over to the sorceress through the threshold, then they take him out of the window, meeting him like a new addition to the family. wedding omen advises the groom to carry the bride over the threshold. If she stumbles at the entrance to the house, a happy life can not be expected.
Do not sit on the threshold - lure bad rumors about yourself. Single belief promises difficulties in love affairs. Do not stand at the entrance for a long time, happiness and prosperity will leave through the open door. Old people say that one who stands on the threshold of money and happiness closes the road to the house. Pregnant women are in danger in the form of evil spirits, so expectant mothers were forbidden to stand at the entrance to the house and sit on the threshold.
When going on business, step over the threshold with your right foot to attract good luck. Do not eat at this time, you risk getting a demon in your neighbors. To drive away an unwanted guest, seat him with his back to the exit. Soon he will remember urgent matters and say goodbye to you.

Throwing trash out the window is a bad idea. Angels sometimes look through it, you can offend them. When the window is opened by a gust of wind, divine messengers warn of something good. Sitting on the windowsill - to loneliness. This refers not only to failures in personal life, but also to the absence of friends, poor relations with colleagues and relatives.
The curtain torn or fell - the hostess of the room will quarrel with her friend. If the window is broken or cracked, the protection of the apartment is weakened. You are threatened by an evil sorcerer or evil spirit. The first consequences will concern communication with people.
In an apartment with windows facing north, few people stay for a long time. Sometimes this sign has a positive meaning - the most inveterate sloths in such a house may have a craving for travel or another reason to spend less time at home. But more often we are talking about heavy energy, which repels residents.
Kitchen beliefs
Bake - heart of home, the place where magic is born. If the hearth has not been used for a long time, it should be crossed before kindling. And in general, fire is supposed to be kindled with prayer. It flares up quickly - which means that the spirit of an ancestor or a brownie is nearby. Do not sit on the stove while cooking, otherwise the food will spoil. A brick fell out of the fireplace - to trouble. The “color” of the energy at home primarily affects the state of the hearth.
Sprinkle salt - to the scandal. But another belief advises throwing three pinches over the left shoulder to stop the argument. Scattered sugar - to a pleasant surprise, reconciliation, good luck.
Do not store crockery with cracks or chips. It brings misfortune and brings disharmony into the energy of the house. Needed for needlework - take it to the barn, superstition is not considered its living quarters. Do not be discouraged, the dishes beat for happiness.
Borrowed a bucket, pan or other container - return them full. According to signs, to return an empty bucket - to desolation and poverty. The more you give, the more you will receive from the universe.
Do not forget to leave treats for the brownie in the most secluded place in the kitchen. He will help with the housework, warn of trouble, protect from evil spirits and witchcraft. Sweets, porridge, pastries with honey are suitable. In honor of the holiday, you can leave a little wine.
Dining table and tablecloth
The kitchen table in rustic magic plays the role altar, desktop for witchcraft cases. Direct his energy to your benefit. In order to acquire your own housing, often hold on to the corner of the table.
Sitting on the table - lose wealth. For a girl, they acquire additional meaning - they will forget how to cook deliciously. Leave shoes on the table or put your feet on it - to the gallows. A cat lying on the table - to the death or departure of one of the household members. “One of the tenants is lying down” - this is how the ancestors spoke about it.
Lending a kitchen table to neighbors or giving it to a young family is not forbidden by superstition. Just cover it with a tablecloth and give it away with it, otherwise poverty will come to the house where the table will be. You can not seat guests at an uncovered table. If someone from the household is late for dinner, shake the tablecloth over the table, and all obstacles in his path will disappear. You can store coins under the tablecloth, it attracts wealth.
While eating, do not knock on the table and dishes with cutlery, otherwise your teeth will ache. When you receive guests, put the spoons with the notch down so that outsiders cannot interfere in your personal life. If during the feast two spoons end up in one dish, there will be a wedding soon.
An unmarried girl must not sweep crumbs off the table with her hand, otherwise she will remain an old maid. The young man is also not worth it - the wife will be bald. Do not do this with paper napkins or a newspaper, you will invite scandals into the house. Use a sponge or cloth.
Bread is the head of everything
There are many signs about bread. They take it with their hands, it is not supposed to prick with a knife or fork, so as not to drive away happiness. You can’t eat from a knife at all, so as not to spoil your character.
When cutting, you can not leave the notched edge against the wall - all friends and acquaintances will turn away from the owner of the house. If the product crumbles and breaks during cutting, expect marital disagreements.
Bread is not “poked” into the salt shaker and a knife is left in it so that hungry times do not come. It is impossible to throw away the leftovers of baking, God will punish with hunger and poverty. Feed them to animals or birds. Undereating or underdrinking, throwing food away are bad omens in most Russian regions.
Culinary beliefs
Egg and chicken dishes are useful for newlyweds, in the old days they were eaten to conceive a child quickly. But do not forget to crush the empty shell so that the devil does not start in it. Watch the eggs while they cook. They crack at the guests.
Baked apples burst - expect good news. The owner who confused salt with sugar or vice versa can also count on good news. But he will have to come to terms with the fact that for another three days the food he cooked will be tasteless.
Forgetting to add spices is a nuisance. The sooner you correct the mistake, the less difficulties will fall on your head. Pancakes and cereals burn to the scandal in the family. In order for dishes, especially festive ones, to succeed, quarrels should be avoided.
Signs in the bedroom
Signs about mirrors do not advise keeping them in the bedroom. Especially if the mirrors are damaged. Cracks open the way for dark entities that are not averse to feeding on the energy of homeowners. Guests from mirror dimensions can harm the psyche and biofield of residents.
Another unwanted accessory for the bedroom - stuffed animals and horns. They radiate the energy of death and violence. Signs do not recommend leaving cold boiled water in the bedroom at night. It teases the demons. In the room where they sleep, it is not supposed to dry umbrellas, to tears. But it’s worth keeping them there, then there will always be “good weather” in the house.
The TV has no place where the husband and wife sleep, this is a divorce. Ficus has a bad effect on the physical side of love. Beliefs also accuse him of problems with conception. Ficus is also contraindicated for unmarried people, it will drive away boyfriends.
Home plants disappear where the spouses sleep - the marriage will not last long. This is one of the signs of damage or evil spirits. Call a priest, bless the house. And then start flower "women's happiness", which will neutralize the harm already done and protect the relationship. Also suitable is hibiscus, a flower that revitalizes relationships and returns passion.
The elephant is a symbol of family and fertility. Put a figurine depicting him in the bedroom of the newlyweds, and they will not have problems conceiving. To receive one as a gift with a covenant to put near the bed - for an early pregnancy. Seashells are best avoided as they negatively affect the health of sleepers.
Folk omens about house cleaning
Having garbage from the house of an enemy, you can damage it. Therefore, in the old days, rubbish was burned in a furnace or buried away from prying eyes. You can not dispose of garbage after sunset - to poverty. According to other signs - to the death of the owner of the house. It's better to clean up during the day. It should be clean at night, after sunset angels go home, look after their wards. The mess will offend them. Not cleaned in bad weather.
Do not wash floors after guests leave, wash them out of the house forever. The sign can be used to get rid of annoying visitors. "They block the road" and for good purposes - the mother of the bride washes the floor after her departure to the groom's house, so that she lives happily in a new place and does not aspire back.
Brooms and brooms in the old days were considered sacred objects. They can both heal and protect from evil, and ruin life - depending on whose hands they end up in. Keep the broom handle down and you will be protected from the evil eye. There can be only one broom in the house, sweeping with two sweeps out the positive energy of love, luck and money. People say: "You will scatter wealth in foreign corners." The old broom is supposed to be burned outside the house, and only after that buy a new one.
They sweep and wash the floor towards the kitchen so that the bins are full. The hostess, rushing to the front door, will lose her beauty and youth. You can't clean up when you're in a bad mood. And the result will not please, and quarrel with someone from home. If a girl does not know how to sweep, she will swear with her husband after the wedding.
The state of the mirror reflects the energy of the apartment. Therefore, do not keep it dirty, wipe it as often as possible. After cleaning, do not walk with an empty bucket, bring bad luck to those who meet along the way.
What to expect if "imagining"?
A lot can be imagined, and not all of this portends something. But if you happen to see a flickering light in your windows when no one is at home, expect happiness. Angels have marked your home with their presence.
To see a brownie - to grief. According to legend, the domovikha (wife of the brownie) cries at night before a misfortune in the family. Can you hear her crying? Get ready for the worst.
Knocking on the window at night is a sign of the death of a relative. But you can trust her only if there were not even traces of the visitor on the street. If this happens more than once, think about which of the deceased relatives you have undeservedly offended. He demands an apology. This interpretation is especially true if light steps are heard after a knock.
A night knock on the door also portends death. In the old days, it was believed that it was the Grim Reaper himself who knocked with the handle of his scythe. But do not deprive yourself of the opportunity to receive guests after sunset. Use your eyeball. If no one is there, don't open it. Better sprinkle the door with holy water and read "Our Father".

Signs live from ancient times. However, not all have survived to this day. Many of them belong to the dining table. When inviting guests to the house, you need to remember the old signs, although some believe that this is stupidity and ignorance. But often they are intelligent and able to anticipate something, especially if you do not have much intuition.
Since ancient times, the table was considered a symbol of comfort and a prosperous life. Some are sure that he has magical powers for the family. And even today this reverence is preserved - you cannot find such a hostess who would not dream of a large, roomy dining piece of furniture. Let's figure out what superstitions are, for example, why you can't wipe the table with a napkin or paper.
Why can't you wipe it with paper?
Today, modern people do not see anything wrong with wiping the dining table with an ordinary napkin. But our ancestors thought differently. For them, wiping this piece of furniture with paper meant inviting conflict situations, quarrels and other troubles to the family. Of course, this could not be allowed under any circumstances. But why was such a common action associated with such a bad omen?
In ancient times, the table at which family members dined was considered an object that personified respect from all family members for each other. During meals, all the inhabitants of the house and their guests gathered here, and this piece of furniture always had to be kept clean.
The rustle of paper was taken as the basis of this superstition. It was his people who used to associate with the noise during a quarrel. Hence the ban on wiping the table with paper or napkins from it. Therefore, for these purposes, people used exclusively a cloth cloth.
Important! The use of paper is determined not only by the presence of this sign, but also by saving money. Previously, books and sheets for notes were very expensive, and no one had heard of free newspapers and literature at all. Therefore, in order not to invite trouble and reduce financial costs, paper was used for completely different purposes.
Other signs
In addition to the sign where you can’t wipe the table with a napkin, there are many other superstitions that relate to the table. Let's look at them in more detail:

Important! Putting empty plates or bottles, thereby you invite lack of money on yourself.
- Gathered on the road - hold on to the edge of the table. This superstition meant that a person, going on a journey, would take with him the protection of his family and home.
