From which foot to put on signs. The magical power of old shoes. What do worn soles mean

What kind of sayings are invented about shoes! The mocking “Eh, yes, he’s under the heel”, the romantic “Two pair of boots”, the gloomy “Drop the slippers”, “Sit down in a galosh”, “We don’t slurp bast shoes” ... Americans have an expression “Put on father’s shoes”, similar to our “Go in the footsteps." The English say, "Walk a mile in my boots," when they want to encourage the interlocutor to understand their point of view. And such attention fell on shoes by no means by chance! In the old days, shoes, boots and even slippers were considered a difficult subject, directly related to the vital forces of a person, so they do not stop making signs about them to this day.

General signs about shoes

For esotericists, mystics and sorcerers of all sorts, personal belongings of a person have always aroused increased interest. It was believed that an object that someone wears on himself (or with him) day after day absorbs the energy of its owner over time and becomes inextricably linked with him. So much so that he begins to foresee the sorrows and joys that await the owner, and persistently signal them. The ability to "wang" was attributed to clothing, headgear, and jewelry. But if you estimate the total number of signs, the shoes will break into the undisputed leaders: for some reason, the predictions of rough road boots and elegant slippers enjoyed increased confidence among our ancestors.

Torn, burst sole, heel fell off and other damage

Worn-out boots have received a personal monument

If the soles on the shoes for no reason burst or torn, remember if you talked with an unpleasant person the other day. Shoes, provided that the owner wears it for more than a week, is considered a strong talisman against the evil eye. And it doesn't matter if someone intentionally caused damage or if you had to contact an energy vampire who has a bad effect on all interlocutors indiscriminately. In any case, the blow aimed at the owner was taken by the shoes, for which they suffered.
A boot that suddenly “requested porridge” testifies to the same thing: an enemy is sharpening his teeth on you, who does not disdain the meanest and meanest tricks. Or the shoes arrived from China and fell apart on their own, which is much more common these days.
The sole cracked just before leaving the house? The path will fail. It is better to postpone all important things on this day and relax a little.
Sometimes pets actively interfere in the prediction process. So, a cat that has marked the owner’s shoes warns of the arrival of distant relatives, and a dog that has thoroughly chewed on a shoe predicts a big family scandal. True, you should not discount another interpretation: you are a very gentle and kind person, and the fluffy team brazenly using this, creates whatever they want in your house.
Have you accidentally splashed water on your shoes? It seems that Fortune has heard your secret dreams and is preparing a meeting with a person who has been in your head for several days now. Everything is logical: without clean shoes, one cannot impress the chosen one.

Shoes that remained unharmed after their owner stumbled on some obstacle and somersaulted in the road dust, a good sign. Wait for pleasant events! The right leg predicts great joy, the left - an interesting acquaintance. But twisting your foot in new shoes means getting into trouble.

Water will cleanse everything!

Is it possible to throw away the old one: the opinion of folk signs

Under no circumstances did the ancestors want to keep worn, torn and holey shoes in the house, because according to signs, this inevitably entailed ailments and losses. However, it was dangerous to throw away a personal item that had served faithfully for more than one month: how do you know who will pick it up and use it for what purpose? To get rid of old shoes and slippers, there was a whole set of rituals:

They threw their worn-out shoes into a furnace or a fire in a wasteland, saying: “Burn on fire, take everything with you.” And they killed not even two, but three birds with one stone! Firstly, a potentially dangerous item was no longer in danger of falling into the hands of the enemy. Secondly, the bread in such an oven had to be tasty and fluffy. And thirdly, by a strange coincidence, the evil spirits could not stand the smell of burning shoes and the shaft poured out of the house. It must be true that the shoes of the ancestors turned out to be “spirited”, the feet were washed from time to time at that time ...
If it was not possible to make a fire, they put a crust of bread in the toe of a leaky shoe and could safely throw it into the wasteland with the words: “I am with good, and I am with good.”
Or they carefully washed their shoes with requests, slanders for water to wash off the master’s spirit from the shoes: “It was mine, it became a draw.” And a thing that does not belong to anyone, and it is not scary to throw it away.

Shoes or boots washed in clean water, if they looked decent, it was not a sin to give them to someone who needed them. In Rus', for a long time there was even a belief that the soul of a person who had not given anyone a single pair of shoes in his entire life had to wander barefoot in the next world.

Find, lose or forget

Found shoes, in whatever condition they may be, symbolize success in business. You have to climb up the career ladder, and fate carefully provides a pair of shoes for this.
But you should not worry about the loss of your favorite slippers or boots. Together with them, some people or connections that have long weighed on you will leave your life.
In the house where you managed to forget your shoes - for example, you came to your relatives or girlfriend with an overnight stay and left the replacement slippers you brought with you - you have yet to return. And if we are talking about the apartment of a loved one, you can safely hope for a marriage proposal: it seems that here you are already ready to be accepted as a full-fledged hostess. It’s a pity, it doesn’t make sense to forget the slippers on purpose; omen won't work.

Confuse, inadvertently wear different left or right, other people's shoes

You can try on, wear - no

Shoes mixed up on a shelf - a warning to be more condescending to your loved ones. You can spoil the relationship for a long time because of a nonsense quarrel, and such mistakes will be difficult to correct.
If in a hurry you happen to put your right shoe on your left foot and vice versa, take off your shoes and put this pair aside. Leaving the house in it means getting into trouble that will damage your good name. By the way, beliefs advise starting to put on shoes from the left foot: for some reason, this should save you from minor life troubles in general and toothache in particular.
In a hurry, put on shoes from two different pairs? Rejoice! Rumor has it that this event will entail prosperity and the fulfillment of a cherished desire.
It is no less pleasant to accidentally put on someone else's shoe - say, in a common locker room at the pool or at a party. Do not be embarrassed, but rather offer the owner or mistress of the accidentally stolen shoe a chocolate bar or any other small present, and you can count on the encouragement of fate in the form of a new useful acquaintance, a romantic meeting or good news.
However, beliefs are strictly forbidden to wear other people's shoes on purpose. Who can guarantee that someone else's energy that has soaked slippers will not cause harm? Do not believe in omens - believe in a fungus, from which no one is immune, and still follow the advice of your ancestors. An exception can only be made for the bride on the wedding day: if among her friends there is one that is happily married, a pair of shoes borrowed from her will lead you straight to family happiness. Especially if you sincerely believe in it.
In no case should you wear the shoes of a dead person: it is believed that they will help the new owner of the shoes to tread the path to their own death.

It is better not to let strangers near your shoes at all. In the old days, even when someone began to wash other people's shoes, the ancestors frowned in displeasure: they would not have pulled a too helpful stranger over vital energy master! On the other hand, both a hundred years ago and before, there were shoe shiners whom no one was afraid of. It can be seen that laziness is a thing stronger than superstition.

How to put shoes in the house: socks or heels to the exit

Order in the hallway - peace in the house

Do not put shoes with socks to the front door if you do not want to escort its owner out of the apartment. And if one of the household members tends to take off their shoes, turning to face the exit, it is worth taking care of his state of mind. Psychologists believe that this is done by a person who feels uncomfortable at home and subconsciously dreams of breaking free.
Shoes that fall crosswise are also not a good sign. It will radiate negative energy, which, of course, you do not need.
But shoes or boots, placed in the form of the letter T, according to legend, relieve nightmares and convulsions. If you make this uncomplicated composition of slippers and hide it under the bed, you can see your betrothed in a dream. Why not check the omen in practice, is it a simple matter?
Promotes peace of mind and shoes, turned upside down to the ceiling. Everywhere except Japan. Here, on the contrary, they consider her to be the harbingers of a family quarrel.
There is also such an unexpected recipe: if at night you are pestered by the barking of a dog in the yard, turn one of the house slippers or a shoe upside down, and the “hollow breeze” will calm down. I wonder how many have tried to do this in practice?
You can’t put shoes on a stool or table, this promises the owner trouble, illness and death, and certainly from a noose. The method of associations must have worked here, because few people would think of climbing on the table in shoes, except for a suicide.
However, the omen does not apply to women. An extravagant lady who left her shoes in such an unusual place is promised an early pregnancy. And if the woman herself does not plan to acquire offspring, the omen passes forward to her closest relative.

If men's or women's shoes creak

Some interpreters call creaky shoes a harbinger of illness, while others are a sign of an unclean conscience. If you recently hurt someone, hurry up to ask for forgiveness and extinguish the conflict. Moreover, you need to go to conclude a world peace in “talking” shoes, then you will certainly be forgiven.
But for the debutant actor, the first appearance on the stage in boots “with a creak” prophesies a resounding success. And if, at the same time, in the dressing room after the performance, the shoes dropped in a hurry themselves neatly settle down with their soles down, glory is not far off.

If it flew off the leg of a girl or a man

A shoe that has flown off a person’s foot is considered an extremely bad sign. On the way, this event promises failure to the conceived business, under normal circumstances means a serious threat to life.

"Professional" signs

Fishermen never wear their shoes slung over their shoulders, and jockeys never put their boots on the floor - it scares away luck.

Others about new and old

Many people know the old Christmas custom of unmarried girls standing with their backs to the gate or front door and throwing a shoe over their shoulder. He will point with his toe to the exit, to be a fortune-teller this year's bride. She will lay down to the door with her heel - for 12 months the beauty will sit "in the girls." If the shoe falls sideways towards the exit, it is not necessary to count on the soon appearance of the sweetheart, but the girl will not stay too long with her parents, she will go on a trip or study far from her home.

Shoes, slippers or boots? Fortune telling by the type of shoes

Most often, superstitions do not specify what kind of shoes we are talking about. But in the treasury of folk wisdom, there is nothing to be found! There are also a couple of beliefs related only to slippers, boots or shoes.

About shoes: how to buy and wear

For such new clothes - only during the growing moon!

In one shoe to walk - a century to be alone.
If the heel of the shoe breaks, you will get bad news.
It is worth burning old shoes in the oven on Christmas eve, and you will not lack new clothes for a year.
In order for expensive leather shoes to last as long as possible, you should buy them "for the growing moon." And do not forget to rub your purchase with castor oil at home and click your heels on the floor three times, it will be more correct.
Give your soulmate beautiful shoes exactly on the leg - you will become inseparable, like a pair of elegant shoes. But be careful! Signs warn: if a gift is not to your liking or your beloved, you will no longer be together, run away at the first opportunity ... On the other hand, will some shoes break a strong pair?

About slippers: is it possible to give, keep under the bed, etc.

Even such cuties can scare someone

Never give slippers to superstitious people! Even expensive ones, embroidered with Swarovski crystals and lined with Mexican jerboa fur. Your generous gesture will be perceived as a wish to “throw away your slippers” as soon as possible and will be terribly offended.
Do not scatter home shoes anywhere - quarrel. Do not keep under the bed - the husband will be pulled "to the left." Do not hide under a chest of drawers - you will attract uninvited guests to the house with master keys.
Ladies of signs are advised to ensure that the slippers of their beloved are always fresh and clean, they say, this will allow the spark between you not to fade. Or maybe the clue lies in the care that a woman shows about her partner?
When moving to a new place of residence, you need to take away all the slippers from the old apartment to the last one. Our ancestors believed that forgotten shoes remains Domovoy, and without him the economy cannot be established in a new place.
Dutifully wait for God knows where the wandering betrothed is not in your rules? Hurry him up with a simple ritual. Buy a solid beautiful pair of men's slippers - do not save money, perhaps your chosen one will flaunt in them a little later - bring it home and leave it in the corridor against the wall for three days. Do not forget to send the purchase with socks to the apartment, this is important! Having allowed the slippers to “settle in” at the new place of residence, at exactly midnight quietly open the front door, put on a new thing on your hands, kneel face down into the apartment and “step over” with your hands in slippers over the threshold as if your betrothed-mummer is already entering the house. The deed is done, leave your shoes against the wall in the corridor, wait for your future owner, and go to sleep.

Some purposeful girls do a whole preparatory work before the ritual. They “drive” slippers in their purse to exhibitions and to the cinema so that the chosen one turns out to be a cultured person. They rub it with banknotes so that precious papers rustle in the pocket of a loved one. They take it with them for walks along the river - maybe the new boyfriend will turn out to be with a romantic note in his soul. At the same time, it is important to treat your innocent witchcraft simply, without anguish and with a dose of humor. For those fixated on the thought “I want to get married,” the ritual does not work.

About wedding shoes

The main task of wedding shoes is to please the bride. The rest is trifles

We started talking about “married” just in time, because it is difficult to find a more superstitious girl than a bride in front of the registry office. Even those who, on a normal day without fear, will sweep an overturned salt shaker into the trash can and cross the road after a black cat, prefer not to violate numerous wedding omens- "and suddenly come true" ...

The bride's shoes should not have perforations: happiness will flow into the holes, and the evil energy of envious women will cling from the ground.
To walk down the aisle in sandals means to spend your whole life “barefoot”, that is, in poverty.
The buckles on wedding shoes will fasten the way for the child and childbirth will be difficult.
The heel will break - family life will be clumsy and scandalous, "limping" on both legs.
To lose shoes on the way to the registry office - not to know the rest of the married, always fussing and fussing.
The groom's bright shoes predict a short life for him, and the boots indicate a tough temper: the young spouse would not start beating his betrothed!
A coin placed under the right heel of the bride promises a happy life in marriage, and in the groom's shoe predicts prosperity in the family.
Wedding shoes should be bought on Friday. And do not forget to walk in them for an hour or two on the eve of the celebration, so that the shoes turn into symbolically worn ones, as custom requires. Yes, and the foot in the usual shoes "in size" will be more comfortable.

The old "hussar" tradition, requiring the groom to drink sparkling champagne from the bride's shoe, seems unhygienic and unpleasant to many in our time. Not only will the groom have to swallow who knows what, but also the girl will be forced to spank all day in sticky shoes! But if you still decide to follow the custom, signs will predict adoration and reverent care from the spouse for a bride with a bare foot, and humility and love of a companion for a brave groom. One of the interpretations says that in such an original way a man takes away the obstinate disposition from the newlywed.

About boots

Who is first in line for housewarming?

To put on a boot on a bare foot is to waste a large amount in vain.
If small living creatures - beetles, ants or centipedes - are wound up in a boot forgotten in the yard, its owner will move to a new apartment, and with great profit.

By fragment or fittings

And that is not all! Do you know that not only a whole boot or slippers, but even a part of a shoe will fit for predictions? Your forecast for the future can give, say, a heel. Or lace.

Heel: broken, loose, stuck

Broke - expect trouble.
Staggering or bent - your position is just as shaky. Take steps not to fall.
Stuck in the pavement - get a joyful surprise where you didn’t count on it.

Laces: tear, untied, knots on them

Do they break every now and then? It's for the money!
Untie? Be careful, you are in danger.
On the contrary, tied with knots? When it comes to the left leg, beware of gossip; on the right, expect praise. And some people regard every knot on a shoelace as a prediction of great luck and do not think to unravel it, even if it causes inconvenience.
You can not put away laced shoes for storage - your legs will start to hurt.
You can’t tie your shoes together: even when you untie them, the laces will not “unravel” and you will stumble out of the blue. With the most serious consequences.
You cannot wear brown and black laces at the same time. In addition to the fact that it looks strange, black symbolizes death, and brown - the land in which the owner of the surreal boots will find himself.

Doesn't the sun symbolize the color orange?

In order for a long-absent family member to knock on the door as soon as possible, you should take his shoes, swap the right and left twice, and then lace up tightly, saying: “Come back soon, do not spare your strength.”

Heels: tear off, break, lose

Torn, broken or lost heel portends failure on the road and stagnation in business. Take a few days off and make a new plan of action - the old one is no good.

What do worn soles mean

In England, to this day they sing a rhyme: “If the bevel on the toe means you live in anguish; if the bevel is on the side - become a bride in the juice; erase under your finger - you will lose wealth; if you wipe off your shoes at your heels, you will be rich.”

Neutralization of bad predictions

It is relatively easy to avoid the "failure" of bad omens. We remove the shoes that made an unpleasant prediction as soon as possible and put them away on the shelf for at least a few days. We immediately take the broken one for repair so as not to keep anything leaky and leaky in the house. Unsuitable for my sock and throw it away. For slippers donated out of ignorance, we give a small coin to turn the gift into a purchase. And most importantly, do not dwell on bad omens.

Carrie Bradshaw was not the only one who was in awe at the sight of a pair of new shoes. In our wardrobes you will find a lot of boats, boots, sneakers, slates, boots ... And not only in women's! And since you already have shoes, from time to time you will lose your heels and heels, step into puddles and dog piles, twist your legs, limping home in delicious but terribly uncomfortable shoes. And here you need to try not to perceive any accidental trouble as a sentence of fate, but mentally make a note: “be careful” and move on, victoriously tapping your heels on the asphalt.

Torn, burst sole, heel fell off and other damage

Shoes that remained unharmed after their owner stumbled on some obstacle and somersaulted in the road dust, a good sign. Wait for pleasant events! The right leg predicts great joy, the left - an interesting acquaintance. But twisting your foot in new shoes means getting into trouble.

Water will cleanse everything!

Glad to see you on my page. We keep talking about folk omens. In this article I will talk about signs about our shoes. Since ancient times, many peoples of the world have associated footwear with the life force and soul of its owner; it was a symbol of authority and power. Until now, many signs regarding shoes have been preserved. They can be conditionally divided into good and bad.

Bad omens associated with shoes.

8. The bride should wear her wedding shoes a little before the wedding. It is believed that worn shoes will bring happiness to the bride.

That's all I wanted to tell today about the signs associated with shoes. Read, think. Maybe there really is something important in these signs?

P. S . British scientists have established an interesting feature: people who believe in omens and superstitions live longer than those who are skeptical about these phenomena.

Putting on a new thing for the first time, make a wish - it will come true. And if these clothes have a pocket, put a coin there for the first time you wear it - it will attract money to you.
For big holidays (birthday, New Year, Christmas and others) wear new clothes. She will bring you prosperity.
When purchasing clothes or shoes, make sure that money remains in your wallet. A wardrobe updated to the “latest” will become the “culprit” of lack of money.
Wearing clothes inside out or back to front is a bad omen that predicts trouble on this day. To eliminate its negative influence, you should wear something else. However, this sign does not apply to underwear - everything is the opposite here: if you accidentally put it on inside out, luck will be on your side all day.
Start putting on clothes from the right sleeve - otherwise create additional difficulties for yourself.
Do not wear the same clothes for several days in a row, especially if these days were not easy. The fact is that clothing absorbs the energy of the world around it, and it also needs “respite” in order to clear itself of accumulated information.
Treat with love - carefully and carefully - clothes that "work" for your image (for example, a uniform or a business suit that you wear to work). How you treat her determines how others will treat you.
A lace untied on the right shoe means that someone is saying kind words about you; on the left - someone is gossiping about you.
Do not put indoor slippers crosswise: peace of mind will be disturbed, sleep will be spoiled.
If you wear someone else's hat, you will miss that person.

In modern life, shoes have become a constant companion of a person. She accompanies us on trips, at work, on dates and walks. She also absorbs and preserves the atmosphere of the house, and is a silent witness to everything that happened in it. Therefore, whether we like it or not, biological particles of ourselves always remain in shoes. This is the basis of a whole series of rituals and conspiracies for human shoes.

Our ancestors turned old shoes into a reliable amulet for the home, and used them to attract happiness. So, since ancient times in Rus' they threw old bast shoes after the bride. It was believed that this would certainly bring her and the groom family well-being. For the same reason, sometimes old shoes are still tied to the rear bumper. wedding car are thrown after the wedding train.

Shoes will attract love and good luck

You can do some magical rituals with old shoes yourself. The main thing is that they should not be directed to the detriment of other people, even if they are your enemies or envious people. Remember that the negative sent outside will always return to you as a boomerang.

Love does not love?!

If you want to know what your lover thinks about you, you need to contrive and, closing your eyes, stand in his shoes, and be sure to bare your feet. At first, there will be a “blank screen” in front of your eyes, then pictures and images will follow in succession, different thoughts will begin to flash in your head. Memorize them and try to decipher them. This, at first glance, "stupid belief" has a completely rational explanation. The palms and soles of a person keep a powerful cast of his energy-informational field, in which feelings and thoughts, hopes and plans are “recorded”. And in worn shoes, this information is stored because our feet sweat. So it turns out: thoughts are hidden in the head, and open through the legs. That's what magic is for...

coin for good luck

As it is not surprising, but old shoes can make good luck your constant companion. Take worn (unnecessary) shoes and those that you are currently wearing. You will also need any yellow coin. She needs to be kept in the sun for a while so that she warms up. And mentally ask the forces of the universe to bring good luck and prosperity into your life. Then put a coin in one of the old shoes. Walk around the house in these shoes for a few minutes. After that, transfer the coin to one of your favorite shoes. And wear them as often as possible, especially when you go on important business. And hide the old pair safely. Very soon, luck, luck and prosperity will come into your life.

Charm for home

If you want to protect your home from damage and the evil eye, place worn shoes on the sides of the porch. They will take on all the negativity that was meant for you. And having absorbed, they will turn it on the owner. If you live in a city apartment, then do not remove your shoes from the corridor before guests arrive - it will also serve as a "lightning rod" in such cases.

Forewarned is forearmed!

But, falling into the hands of an unkind person, your old shoes can bring a lot of trouble. Having acquired someone else's worn shoes, they separate couples and send illnesses.

With the help of shoes, you can suppress someone else's will. By the way, a well-known wedding tradition, when a shoe is stolen from the bride, and the “friend” is obliged to find it, redeem it and then drink champagne from it. This is nothing more than a variation on the theme of the ancient ritual of "okorma", aimed at suppressing the personality and subjugating one's will. Initially, the owners mixed their blood, saliva, sweat and other DNA carriers into the feed of the animals to make them obedient. What is the purpose of the ritual with the “shoe of the bride” is a big question ...

There are a lot of examples and ways! ... And you will never guess, you will never trace the connection between thrown out old shoes and a black streak in life.

As you know, for every action there is a reaction. And from any magical influences, you can also protect yourself and your family.

To do this, just remember and take note of a few simple rules:

- never let anyone wear out your old shoes;
- also do not buy or take "as a gift" someone else's shoes;
- try not to let anyone try on, and even more so wear your shoes. The same rule applies to any other items in your wardrobe;
- Store shoes in tight-fitting drawers. Try not to let your shoes go missing or even part of it (insoles, laces, rivets…).

Perhaps you are sure that you have no enemies and ill-wishers. And yet, it is better to exclude the possibility of using your own shoes against you than to think later where the trouble came from and how to protect yourself from it.
