Choosing a gift is an interesting but very difficult task, so some people limit themselves to a gift in the form of money.
Visiting new residents is no exception.
However, folk signs strictly defined the list of gifts that cannot be given to people who have recently moved into a house or apartment. Money was also included in this list.
Mirror
A practical and useful thing, but the belief is that a mirror given as a gift will attract bad luck and misfortune to a new home.
Knives and scissors
Also useful things in everyday life, which signs do not advise to give to new settlers. The fact is that these items can allegedly provoke a serious conflict in the family. Up to divorce, if you believe the signs.
Money and wallets
Many give money, believing that people will decide for themselves what they need more. However, the belief is that such a gift can doom new settlers to poverty. The situation is similar with wallets.
Watch
There are many superstitions about watches, which are invariably considered one of the worst gifts, according to popular belief. Even if the giver does not believe in such superstitions, the recipients may be superstitious people.
Pearls and pearl jewelry
Such gifts are very rarely given to new settlers. However, superstitious people still believe that this stone is a symbol of women's tears. It is believed that such a gift can bring a series of failures and misfortunes to the owner of the house.
