Fork on the floor

The most popular sign is that if a fork falls on the floor, it may foretell the arrival of unexpected guests.

Also, such a fall is seen as an invitation to events into the house that can change the current order of things.

If it falls forward, it may symbolize the approach of guests. A fork that falls backwards may foretell the departure of someone from the family.

Oscillation

If the fork continues to waver after falling, it is considered a harbinger of turbulent times.

The longer the fluctuations, the longer the changes or events that can have a strong impact on the lives of most people will last.

After the fall it needs to be cleaned.

It is believed that cleaning the fork after it has fallen can protect it from negative consequences.

You can't just pick it up from the floor and continue using it for its intended purpose. It is believed that this can attract negative events and failures into everyone's life.

When to pay attention to the fall

Just like reading coffee grounds, intuition is important in interpreting a fallen fork.

It is important to remember that omens are just beliefs, so it is often worth paying attention to your own intuition.

Sometimes a fall can be a simple accident, so there is no point in paying attention.

Fall in a restaurant

If a fork falls out in a restaurant, it may be a harbinger of misfortune or trouble during a meal.

Such an event can act as a kind of sign that warns a person about the danger that lies in wait in life.
