When choosing gifts for their loved ones for the New Year, most people are guided only by the rational component.
But can all gifts be called successful? Therefore, it is worth remembering several gifts that should not be given for the New Year.
Knives and sharp objects
According to popular belief, knives and sharp objects can symbolize a break in relationships or conflicts.
Such gifts can lead to conflicts and misunderstandings in relationships.
Watch
Giving watches, especially to loved ones, is considered a bad omen, as it can be associated with the counting of time and the onset of death.
Instead, it is better to choose gifts that symbolize eternity and long-term relationships.
And if you really want to give the watch as a gift, you should ask for a symbolic amount for it. It should feel like the watch was sold, not given as a gift.
Black or dark gifts
Gifts in black or dark packaging can carry negative associations and are considered signs of bad luck.
Such gifts can attract negative forces and create a shadow for the future.
Books with bad plots
Giving books that cover themes of grief is considered unlucky, as it can attract negative events into one's life.
It is better to choose books with a positive plot or inspiring content.
It is also not worth giving away personal books, it is believed that in this case a person can give away part of his knowledge and experience.
Single roses
Giving a single rose is considered a symbol of separation and loneliness.
Instead, it's better to choose a bouquet that symbolizes joy, prosperity, and long-term relationships.
And if there is no other gift option, it is better to refuse it altogether. There is also a rational component, because hardly anyone will be truly happy with one rose.
Mirrors
Mirrors are considered unlucky gifts as they can attract negative energies and quarrels.
It is believed that a mirror can reflect problems and create barriers in relationships. Each person should buy such a thing on their own.
