Do you believe in folk omens? Do you consider some minor events of the world around you to be significant (the notorious black cat, a broken mirror, a woman with an empty bucket, etc.)? Do you attach secret meanings to the slightest changes in your own body? It has been noted that it is in Russia and the post-Soviet countries that a significant part of the population is prone to superstition. We like to see in everything that happens a harbinger of the future.
Maybe, attaching importance to even the smallest things and trusting the signs, you can foresee fate a little? For example, when the left eye itches, someone will not pay attention to such a trifle. And people who believe in folk signs will see this as a warning about the future. No wonder - and such an unremarkable event is considered prophetic. The sign says: if the left eye itches, expect joy soon. And if the right one, tears will soon shed.
Though things are not so simple. The same itching in the left eye can portend a painful quarrel, unexpected luck, easy money, sudden news, an insult inflicted by a loved one or bitter tears. As you can see, this sign has many interpretations. Here the value depends ontime: the left eye itches in the morning - expect sadness, in the afternoon - something joyful is coming. They say that this sign can have different interpretations, depending on the day of the week when the eye itched. Such ambiguity is convenient. It is possible to choose the option that you want to believe if the left eye itches.
The people have also invented a way to get rid of the bad consequences of this omen. The procedure is simple and beautiful. If you do not want to cry and be sad, then, feeling that your left eye is itching, do so. Close your eyelids and rub them with both palms (right palm - right, left - left). Then cross your closed eyes three times, reading your favorite prayer. These actions will neutralize all the negativity predicted by itching.
Should I blindly trust omens? On the one hand, they were created by people close enough to nature. Then they were able to accurately notice many things that we now do not pay attention to. Maybe in some way superstition is not without foundation. On the other hand, esotericists believe that by believing in some event or fearing it, we attract it to ourselves. So, believing in future troubles, subconsciously a person almost resigned himself to their inevitability, inscribing future troubles into his fate.
I consider myself "conditionally" superstitious. If the omen seems positive to me, I can pay attention to it, remember and even believe it. The rest of the signs just do not notice. I do not believe in bad omens that would concern me. Although I cannot vouch that my subconscious does notnotices bad signs. Therefore, it is better not to be superstitious at all. You only need to trust yourself and your intuition.
By the way, if you feel that your left eye is constantly itching, do not think about believing in omens, expecting joy or tears. Better take a good look in the mirror. If you notice inflammation, accompanied by itching and pain, immediately go to the doctor. This is not about superstition - discomfort can be caused by allergies or conjunctivitis.
