How our ancestors treated the broom

In ancient times, a broom was involved in witchcraft rituals. But his abilities were not only the ability to establish connections with other worlds.

He served and a talisman against danger to people and their homes. It was believed that for this it was necessary to follow several rules.

  • The equipment had to “rest” from work, standing in the corner with your hand down. This is how he absorbs streams of light energy. But it was impossible to leave it down like a broom, otherwise the messages from the lower dark worlds would be received. While sweeping, the housewife believed that she was spreading the collected energy throughout the house. Therefore, they were afraid to store it incorrectly, so that negativity would not spread throughout the house. And the one who swept would not have had any troubles and would not have suffered from deterioration in health.
  • It was also assumed that storage with the working part up protected from the evil eye and negative energy of ill-wishers.

Reference! It was believed that anyone who comes with bad thoughts will be powerless if the broom is placed correctly in the house. For greater effect, throw a broom after someone who comes into the house with negativity.

  • You can use a broom family members only. Do not allow strangers to touch it.
  • Our ancestors were sure that if you knock on the threshold while sweeping, then in this way you can drive away evil forces and even someone else's brownie.
  • Sweeping should be done from the threshold to the middle of the room to accumulate monetary well-being.
  • The tool also used in raising children. If they were not distinguished by good behavior or excellent grades at school, a special ritual was performed. On the threshold of the home, they “swept away” all bad thoughts and actions from the child, and then scattered them to the wind.

Important! But under no circumstances was it possible to hit children with a broom, otherwise, as the adults were sure, they would lose their health.
