Our ancestors believed in various helper spirits unconditionally. Domovoy can be attributed precisely to such entities. He keeps order in the house - expels dark forces, helps the owners in household chores, etc. The brownie with whom the owners have established contact is especially trying.
These are quite smart and quick-witted spirits, each of which can have its own character. There are kind and mischievous, serious and even aggressive. A brownie is a must in the apartment. It is in every residential area - whether it is a room in a high-rise building, or a country house. In order to increase prosperity and have a well-established household economy, earlier brownies tried to appease, so to speak, to attract to their side.
For this, the owner was recommended to make a sacrifice. Most of all, the brownie in the apartment loves rye bread. Therefore, it was necessary to cut off the crust and at the end of the week, that is, on the night from Sunday to Monday, put it on the table, thickly sprinkled with s alt, inviting (mentally or even aloud) the spirit to have a meal. In the morning you had to get up earlier than others and eatthis bread. According to folk beliefs, brownies are also partial to milk, so a saucer of warm milk was often left on the table for them.
In the event that the owners lead an unrighteous life, a lot of negativity accumulates in the apartment. The brownie, moving along it, gets dirty on all this energy dirt, which puts him in a bad mood. As a result, he may begin to show some aggression towards the owners. How does an angry brownie show his displeasure? Various things systematically begin to disappear in the apartment, dishes often break, strange rustles and sounds are heard at night - all these are signs that the creature is trying to attract attention, forcing the owners to engage in energetic “cleaning” of the room.
Often a very active brownie can pinch and even begin to choke the owners in their sleep. In this case, you should not panic, but rather pull yourself together and ask the spirit: “For better or for worse?” After that, the brownie will somehow make it clear what awaits the owners in the future. Some, especially naughty house spirits, like to pet their owners at night. In this case, you should pay attention to your own feelings. If the brownie's hand seems shaggy to you, great we alth awaits you soon. If smooth, it means that difficult times are ahead.
The brownie does not appear in the new apartment immediately, but only after people move into it. Therefore, if you lived in peace and prosperity in the old house, it is worth attracting your former spirit. To lure him intoa new apartment, the cat is first launched into it, which must spend the night there alone. With pets, brownies often establish friendly relations. In rare exceptions, a cat or dog may not please the spirit. Then by hook or by crook he will try to force the pet to leave the apartment.
Some researchers consider these spirits to be something like a late transformation in the popular perception of the ancient Slavic god Rod. Once upon a time, our ancestors prayed for well-being in the family and prosperity to him. Therefore, a brownie in an apartment can become a guarantee of we alth and prosperity for the people living in it, and it is certainly worth making friends with this spirit.
Ancient pagan traditions arouse interest for their immediacy, and magical rites and rituals for their practicality and closeness to real life. Paganism has existed on earth for more than one century, in any case, much longer than Christianity. And so far, his influence is very strongly felt in all spheres of life. However, to believe in whether there is a brownie in the apartment or not is a private matter for each person.
