Many housewives always place a broom with the handle up.
At first glance, this is the right action: with this method of storage, dirty rods end up on the floor and do not touch the wall.
However, according to popular belief, the bundle of rods should be placed so that the handle is at the bottom.
It is believed that in this case the hostess and her family members will be protected from troubles and misfortunes.
The point of storing a broom with the handle down
According to the signs, this type of arrangement of the bundle of rods helps protect against the evil eye and diseases.
But if the broom often stands with its twigs down, then the residents of the apartment, according to beliefs, may face serious problems.
Other signs about the broom
It is believed that a maximum of one bundle of rods can be stored in a house.
According to signs, using two or more brooms can provoke difficulties with money and in your personal life.
It is also generally accepted that you cannot buy a new broom until the old one has been thrown away or burned.
There is another sign: it is advisable to sweep with a broom not towards the exit of the apartment, but towards the kitchen. It is believed that in this case, none of the family members will have health problems.
