Proven ways to attract good luck and happiness to your new home after moving

Home Articles Folk signs and rituals when moving to a new home

On the one hand, a housewarming is a joyful event for any person, but on the other hand, it brings with it inevitable, albeit pleasant, troubles. Our ancestors took the procedure of moving to a new place very seriously, believing that with the move, our whole life could change, and of course, each of us wants it to be happy, in full prosperity - as they say: “The house is full”!

Therefore, there are many signs and beliefs associated with housewarming, which are believed to be able to affect the life of residents in a new house after moving. We will tell you about these signs and rituals that are passed down from generation to generation in our article. And you decide for yourself whether to believe in them and follow them or not.

How to properly leave your previous place of residence

At your previous place of residence you need 2-3 coins. Then the life of the previous and new owners in this apartment will be prosperous. The law of return comes into play: in order to receive something, you need to give something.

Moving always involves packing old things. If you have things you don't use, it's best to throw them away immediately. Signs when moving to a house or a new apartment prohibit taking unnecessary junk with you. It is not recommended to transfer such things into the wrong hands. Otherwise, there is a risk that ill-wishers will damage these items.

Say a warm goodbye to your old home. Remember only positive things. Forget about pain and grief, don’t be ungrateful - otherwise life will punish you. Even if being in your previous home was unhappy, you need to thank fate for the lessons.

The invisible patron is with you

We are talking about your friend and protector, who has lived with you all this time - the brownie. He tried to give you comfort, kindness and happiness. Don't leave him in his old home. You need to take it with you. No special rituals or other complex processes are required for this. Just invite the brownie - politely, with respect, saying:

“Brownie-brownie, we’re taking you with us. We are leaving home. We invite you with us"

When you arrive at your new home, say: “Here comes the new home.”

Rituals when moving to a new apartment

• When moving into a new house, you cannot enter the purchased property with nothing. You should have a pot with a living plant with you. It is brought in with outstretched arms. The plant absorbs all the bad energy of the new home - lack of money, diseases, problems. You need to get rid of it in a week; you shouldn’t keep it in your apartment.

Important! You can also bring a bunch of wormwood into the house. This plant intensely absorbs negative energy.

• You need to place a banknote under the tablecloth on the dining table. For the omen to work, do not touch or take out the money.
• Bird feathers, soap, dried plants, cracked dishes, horns and stuffed animals should not be kept in a new house.

These are not all rituals. The most popular ones are to invite a brownie, let a cat in, use silver coins and do proper cleaning.

Call the brownie

Moving to a new apartment requires moving your brownie as well.

When moving, you need to call the brownie from the old house to the new one

In order for him to agree to go with the owners, the following ritual must be performed in the old house:

• take the boot from your left foot;
• place it in the center of the largest room in the house;
• stand next to him and say: “Brownie, come with me, you will keep order in the house and help the owners”;
• leave the room for 15 minutes;
• come in, put the boot in your bag.

When moving to a new home, you need to perform the following rituals:

• place the boot in the center of the living room;
• say: “Brownie, we’ve arrived. Get settled in, and when evening comes, come and drink some milk”;
• go to another room and put a glass of milk in it.

These creatures are attracted to sweets, therefore:

• prepare a sweet treat for the brownie;
• put the goodies at the bottom of the suitcase (it should be empty);
• invite the brownie to try it.

If you forgot about the brownie, there is another sign that allows you to invite your grandfather. On any 3 days of a new moon in a row during a young month, open the window and shout: “Brownie, come to our house! If you live with us, your owners will love you!”

Leave some goodies for your little ones. It is better to choose a place in the kitchen, preferably near the stove. Set out sweets, gingerbread, and milk at night.

The cat is the first to enter the house

There are many ancient beliefs associated with cats. A cat has 9 lives, so he collects all the negativity that threatens his owner, but he himself does not suffer from it.

The cat must be the first to enter the new house - this way it will find a suitable place for the brownie. If she is stubborn, you cannot force her into the apartment. It is enough to throw a little food into the house so that the animal willingly comes into the house. As soon as the cat enters the house, say: “So that life in the house is secure, like a full month.”

When the cat sniffs all the corners of the house, you need to open the suitcase in which the brownie moved. Prepare gifts for this creature and say: “The brownie is your new home. You will live with us, bring joy and goodness, help us and keep order.”

The cat should enter the apartment first

It is better if your pet spends the first night in a new place alone. The next morning we need to see how he feels. If the cat is tense, scared and wants to run away from the apartment, then there are dark forces in the home. If she is calm and purring, then everything is fine.

Important! If the owners do not have a cat, you can use a figurine of a black cat or dog. This figurine is then used as a talisman.

Housewarming signs don't just include cats. Attention is also paid to other living beings:

• if you notice a white spider when entering the house, do not kill it - this is a harbinger of happiness, pleasant events, harmonious marital relationships;
• ants live only in bright places and bring with them good energy (although people refuse to put up with such a neighborhood);
• large flying or crawling beetles are unfortunate: they need to be caught and thrown away, but not killed.

Black mold indicates dark energy. We need to get rid of it.

Silver coins

Folk signs when moving and entering a new apartment include the use of silver coins. If the owners managed to get hold of silver coins, they should be thrown on the floor. This promises a prosperous and carefree life.

Cleaning of the apartment

When entering the apartment, you need to flush the water from the taps and open all the windows wide. This will eliminate stagnation of energy and attract all the elements to the side of the owners.

You need to have 2 new brooms with you. One is used to sweep away all the trash from the previous owners. The second should be placed with the panicle up near the threshold for 3 days. It is then used to clean the house.

Carefully examine the house for the presence of:

• old battered dolls;
• needles;
• metal coins.

They are usually found in corners. If you find such items without touching them with your hands, throw them away. They are used to cause damage.

Sprinkle salt on all corners and leave it for a couple of hours. After this, wash the floors. To wash, pour half a glass of holy water into a bucket of water.

When cleaning, you need to add holy water to the bucket.

Those rags, mops and other items used for the first cleaning in a new home should be thrown away.

If there are mirrors left from the previous owners, then you need to get rid of them immediately. The mirror contains maximum energy concentration.

Amulets and talismans

A horseshoe is a powerful amulet that instills happiness. It hangs with its horns down over the front door. Only this position is correct - otherwise he will not act.

The Horseshoe amulet is hung above the front door with its horns facing down.

Images, icons, and amulets are hung in a prominent place in the corner. This place is the Red Corner.

When did the first amulets for home and family appear?

The history of talismans goes back to ancient times, when religious movements began to emerge and the foundations of magical knowledge appeared. People sought to protect themselves by any means from the influence of evil natural forces and to protect themselves from the intrigues of their enemies.

At first, natural amulets were used to protect family and home, for example, stones with holes that were found on the banks of reservoirs. Various herbs were widely used, in particular wormwood - it is still considered a magical plant among fans of folk beliefs.

It was customary among the Slavic peoples to make amulets for the home with their own hands. Healers made herbal bouquets and hung them in the home to ward off evil spirits.

Horseshoes were forged in forges, and in every Russian hut they always hung above the entrance to the room. Often, a rune-amulet for the house was drawn on the doorposts, thereby calling upon the good gods to protect those living under this roof.

Day to move

The best days to move are Tuesday or Saturday. You can also plan such an event on Thursday. However, there may be minor problems that will not affect your future life.

You shouldn't move on other days, and here's why:

• Monday is always a difficult day, when even the usual things go awry, so you shouldn’t plan a move on this day;
• Wednesday is a treacherous day, when troubles often occur, and there is no need to move at this time either;
• on Friday all business comes to a standstill;
• Sunday is reserved for rest and worship, and moving is always a hassle and worry about arranging your home.

At the same time, Wednesday is the optimal day for a temporary move. If people moved to a new apartment on Wednesday, then they will not live in this place for long. Therefore, you can plan to move on Wednesday when you don’t like the chosen apartment and people want to change housing over time.

Not only the day for moving is important, but also the weather:

• on a sunny day, life will be joyful and successful;
• the rainbow symbolizes good health and relief from illnesses;
• drizzling rain - for money;
• downpour - to frequent tears;
• lightning - to a bright personal life.

Light rain promises big money.
There are other signs when moving:

• to hear neighbors behind the wall on the first day in a new place - to frequent guests;
• spotting a woman first means quarrels and gossip, a man means calm;
• if the first guest for the holiday is a child, then a baby is expected in the family;
• if birds have built a nest near the house, then there is positive energy in the house;
• if on the day of moving a crow cawed nearby - to sorrows and misfortunes.

Types of talismans

Slavs lived on most of our country. The amulets were made for special occasions:

• on holiday;
• everyday;
• from the evil eye;
• from diseases;
• for good luck.

Amulets for body protection and for home protection were considered common.

If you choose one of the Slavic embroidery talismans to protect your home, then use only linen fabric to make it, and frame the amulet.

Here are some of the amulets for the home that you can make yourself:

• brownie;
• horseshoe;
• broom;
• bast shoes;
• charmed herbs and spices.

The making of magical things is considered a sacred matter, and it must be treated properly, because every element in such an image has its own special meaning

Signs for housewarming

When dining in a new country house for the first time, you need to bury the first cut piece of bread in the ground. The place is in the right corner under the house. When burying, say: “Breadwinner, breadwinner, come to a new house - you will eat bread and obey the owners.”

There are signs associated with household items and moving. You will need a basin or basket for laundry, which is placed before washing. The basket should last at least 3 months. When bringing it into a new house, say 3 times in a row: “As a basket accumulates laundry, so let the house accumulate wealth.”

Before the celebration, you need to put the house in order, put the furniture in its place, and arrange the room. Only then can you invite guests home and prepare for the holiday.

You can invite guests only after moving in and furnishing the apartment.

To celebrate a housewarming, you need to invite close relatives and friends. If a person is unpleasant, then there is no need to call him, even if he is dear.

There should be a loaf in the center of the table. Otherwise, you can cook any dishes. It is advisable for the table to be full of food - this will bring prosperity in the future.

Clear your home of negative energy

This procedure should take place if you are moving into an apartment where someone has already lived before you.

To rid your home of negative energy, you need to do the following:

• carry out a general cleaning of the apartment, especially carefully cleaning the corners and hard-to-reach areas where the greatest amount of dust has accumulated;
• wash the floors with salt, as it can absorb and neutralize negative energy accumulated on objects;
• ventilate the home, thereby letting light energy into the house.

Prohibited gifts

There are some gifts that should not be given for housewarming. Otherwise, the new residents may be offended, the festive atmosphere will fade, and the relationship will deteriorate. And this will affect the rest of your life.

1. Money. Never give cash in an envelope. Otherwise, the home owners will face financial problems. There is also a risk that the house will be visited by robbers.
2. Wallet. If you give the owners a wallet, they will be in danger of running out of money.
3. Mirror. Giving a mirror means bringing illness to the owners.
4. Pearl products. Jewelry made from this stone will lead to bitter tears.
5. Watch. New residents should not be given any clocks (wall, table, wrist) or even alarm clocks. Otherwise, the owner or mistress of the house will spend a lonely old age.

But then what to give as a housewarming gift? Rules and beliefs establish that the best gifts are:

• household items (breadbox, dishes, kitchen utensils - excluding knives and forks);
• towels, bed linen (only from relatives);
• textile;
• Appliances;
• furniture;
• curtains;
• items for beautiful interior decoration - photo frames, figurines, vases.

You can give figurines and other beautiful items for the interior.
Each guest invited to a housewarming throws coins over the threshold at the entrance. They cannot be touched for 3 days. After this, the owners collect the coins and hide them in a secluded place.
