Often relatives, friends or neighbors bring treats in their own dishes, which then need to be returned.
However, signs explain why you cannot give away empty containers, plates, cups and other dishes.
Empty dishes: beliefs
The sign says that you can't return empty dishes to their owners. The beliefs describe the following consequences for violators:
- financial problems;
- a series of failures;
- quarrel with loved ones.
It is believed that something should be put in the dish. For example, some treats (candies, cookies, etc.).
If the dishes do not need to be returned, for example, bottles, then they cannot be stored empty. The consequences for the owners of the home will also be negative. The sign says that such dishes should be disposed of.
An empty cup is a gift
A gift in the form of an empty mug is bad manners, which also promises problems for the recipient. The gift is especially dangerous for single people who are trying to build a personal life.
You can reset the omen by putting something in the mug or giving a few coins in addition to the mug.
