Sooner or later, the New Year decorations have to be put away and the tree dismantled or thrown away.
Most citizens approach this issue in a routine manner. Some try to complete the work before the end of winter, others eagerly await the New Year according to the old style and remove the decorations almost the next morning.
Yulia Tychino, an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" in the field of design and interior, told how to do the right thing.
There are no clear rules in society about when to take down a Christmas tree. You can turn to folk traditions and the popular movement of Feng Shui for answers.
Feng Shui
If we follow the Eastern teaching, then we can take our time and leave the New Year's decoration until the New Year according to the Eastern calendar.
This year it will only come on February 10, and then February 23 and March 8 are just around the corner.
Folk traditions
Supporters believe that it would be right to end the celebration after the Old New Year, that is, on January 14. But there is one interesting point here.
It is believed that on this day, a natural spruce generously shares positive energy, so dragging it to the trash heap is thoughtless.
Considering that the next holiday after Christmas is Epiphany, you can get rid of your New Year decorations about a day before the celebration.
What they say in church
Everything is simple and democratic here. Each person should decide individually when to take off their jewelry.
The clergy advises to be guided by common sense, but not by superstitions or folk signs.
What do the signs say?
But people say that you can’t just take your Christmas tree and throw it in the trash.
You can leave a few needles from the Christmas tree, wrap them in a scarf and store them until the next New Year.
You can also find many spells and other sayings on the Internet that you need to say when taking a real New Year tree out to the trash.
