Cutting nails is a common hygiene procedure that we do regularly.
However, many people do not know that this action is associated with many signs and superstitions that can affect our destiny and health.
It is especially dangerous to cut your nails in the evening, when the time of evil forces and magical influences comes. Why is it so and how to avoid negative consequences?
History of the emergence of superstition
It is believed that a significant part of a person's energy is hidden in the nail plates, which protects him from unfavorable influences. By cutting our nails at night, we lose this protection and become vulnerable to evil spirits, damage and the evil eye.
In addition, nail clippings can fall into the hands of ill-wishers who can use them for magical rituals against us.
This superstition has ancient roots and is connected with the fact that in the past people did not have the opportunity to illuminate their homes well during the dark hours of the day.
They cut their nails by candlelight or firelight, risking getting hurt or not noticing a small piece of nail. Such a piece could be swept out into the street or thrown in the trash, where it could be picked up by an evil person or animal.
It was also believed that if you cut yourself while cutting your nails in the evening, evil forces could enter through the wound.
When is the best time to cut your nails by day of the week
To avoid troubles due to nail cutting, you need to choose the right time for this procedure. Folk wisdom suggests which days of the week are favorable for manicure and pedicure, and which are not.
• It is better not to cut your nails on Monday, as this can lead to discord in the family or separation from a loved one.
• On Tuesday, you can cut your nails if you want to strengthen your health and immunity. But be careful not to provoke a conflict with your boss or colleagues.
• On Wednesday you can cut your nails to improve your financial situation and success in business. But do not do this from 6 to 7 pm, as this can lead to discord in the family.
