You came to visit a friend, accepted a treat from him, ate the dish, went to the kitchen and started washing a dirty plate...
Sound familiar? Keep in mind that in such a case you are breaking the omen.
No, you can visit and eat in someone else's house. But you shouldn't wash dishes there.
According to signs, this action can provoke serious difficulties.
Signs about washing dishes when visiting
According to popular belief, a person who cleans the plates in someone else's house "washes away" his or her luck.
It is possible that the result will be the beginning of a difficult period: you will be haunted by problems.
There is another sign: washing dishes at a party promises a serious conflict with a loved one or betrayal on his part.
If you start washing dishes at a colleague's house, then problems in your professional activities may arise.
Rational explanation
If you take on the task of washing dishes in someone else's house, you are essentially showing the owners: "You can't do it yourself, we have to help you."
It is possible that your action will be perceived by the inviters as a hint at the lack of order and cleanliness in the apartment.
However, in one case, you can wash the plates even when you are visiting. We are talking about a situation when the hosts themselves asked you to help them. In this case, you will not break the omen and will not offend people.
