When the cold weather sets in, many people have time to do home repairs and other useful things.
Is it possible to do repairs in winter? Therefore, it is worth examining several signs and superstitions on this matter.
Sleeping brownie
According to folk beliefs, winter is the time when the brownies living in the house are at rest.
Repairs at this time can disturb them, and this will cause a lot of difficulties.
For example, during repairs, a tool may constantly break or other minor problems may arise.
Ice threshold
A threshold frozen by construction work is considered an obstacle to happiness.
A frozen threshold can slow down or stop the flow of well-being in the home.
Of course, we are talking about symbolism here, because it takes some effort to freeze the threshold during repair work.
Attracting negativity
Winter is a time of peace and rest. If you do serious work in your home, you can attract negative energy.
There is an opinion that in winter it is necessary to monitor the general energy and not disturb the existing balance in nature.
Disturbance of the state of rest
In winter, nature, including domestic spaces, is in a special state of rest.
Repair work can disrupt this connection, creating minor difficulties.
Each job has its own cycles and time. It is better to do repairs in spring and summer. In other periods, you should do other things.
Rational component
These prohibitions also have a rational component, which must also be taken into account.
For example, in winter, during renovations, air humidity increases, which can lead to unpleasant consequences.
Also, in severe frosts it is not always possible to do the work qualitatively. It is better to carry out such work when it is warm outside.
