According to a well-known sign, a person who breaks a mirror will face seven years of misfortune.
This superstition did not appear out of nowhere: among the people, a reflective surface is considered an “accumulator” of energy and a portal to the other world.
But does a broken mirror necessarily mean the beginning of a long bad period?
It turns out, no. The effect of the omen can be cancelled. To do this, it is enough to say one phrase.
What phrase are we talking about?
If you break a reflective surface, you need to say the following: “What broke, broke, but did not stick to me.”
It is believed that saying this phrase helps a person who has failed to keep the mirror intact to avoid serious problems.
What to do next
It is not enough to simply say the "protective" words. You also need to remove the mirror fragments.
You need to put on gloves and carefully collect all the pieces. It is important not to see your own reflection.
It is advisable to throw away everything that you managed to collect as far away from your home as possible.
