Some people do not believe that objects in the home can bring bad luck. Nevertheless, they wonder if a broken mirror will bring them bad luck, and if they want to keep their luck, they knock on a wooden table. Superstitions are passed down from generation to generation. Let’s take a look at what not to surround yourself with at home.

Don’t believe in superstitions? Still, it’s a good idea to maintain a positive environment at home where you feel good. See what to avoid. Especially if you want your home to be a haven of peace, harmony, joy and positive energy. So how to achieve this? According to Vastu Shastra, many things can destroy positive energy. Which things are unfortunate for harmony?

A rocking chair is better not

In Ireland, the rocking chair has mystical significance. According to legend, an empty rocking chair is an invitation to spirits. Some cultures believe that if you have a rocking chair in your home, you are in for a financial loss. Some, on the other hand, believe that as the rocking chair constantly moves back and forth, it can bring negative energy into the home.

Avoid green

The color green is beautiful. Yet it is not recommended to paint rooms in your house with it. This is because it is a colour marked by a gloomy history. In many countries it is associated with bad luck, poverty and death. It is believed to be linked to ancient customs. They saw green as the colour of death and misfortune.

Oversized furniture

Too spacious and large furniture takes up a lot of space and can make an apartment look cluttered. This makes the space feel cluttered and you may feel too cramped in your apartment. The ideal is to choose furniture that is sized to fit the space at the time. And it’s important to pay attention to its colour tones too. Think that the furniture should be airy.

Dying plants

Just as you get rid of broken items in your home, it’s also a good idea to get rid of plants that are dead or visibly dying. Learn to rescue plants early if necessary. Find out how to care for each species. If you can’t, then you’d better throw them away. Plants that are too old and unsightly are definitely not conducive to positive feng shui.

An unmade bed

Sounds like a triviality, doesn’t it? But there’s an age-old superstition that says an unmade bed can cast a sinister spell on your sleep. So an unmade bed can be a harbinger of sleepless nights. On the other hand, airy and neat duvets and pillows protect the peace of the night. So remember. The key to a restful night’s sleep is a well-made bed.

Broken clocks

If you leave a stopped or broken clock at home, you might as well put it on the list of things that are bad luck. The superstition probably stems from the fact that time passes. By leaving a clock at home that doesn’t work you can bring bad luck upon yourself. Remember that!
