Why you need to hang a mirror after someone's death: features of signs
Throughout history, mirrors have been associated with magical properties. SSPDaily tells about some of the most common beliefs.
Energy of mirrors
According to beliefs, you can't hang someone else's mirror in your home, because it retains the energy of the previous owners, which is not always in harmony with the current residents.
Souls and mirrors
It is believed that mirrors should be covered with a thick, dark cloth for 40 days after someone's death so that the soul of the deceased does not wander and gets stuck in the mirror.
Looking in the mirror
The belief warns against looking into a mirror for a long time and intensely, as this can inadvertently give away part of one's life force, potentially attracting illness or bad health.
Mirror and love
Two women should not look in the same mirror at the same time, as they will fall in love with the same person and become rivals.
Breaking mirrors
It is believed that the accumulated negativity in a mirror leads to its breaking. However, this sign is lucky, because it is believed that a broken mirror takes away all the accumulated misfortune or negative energy. However, it is very important to avoid looking directly at the shards, as this can bring further bad luck.
