The tradition of celebrating a birthday, Russian people have drawn from American culture. In Russia, it was originally customary to celebrate Angel Day. It is not surprising that for many years, foreign and ancient Russian traditions were closely intertwined and, mutating each other, formed into special signs.
Birthday sign associated with the guardian angel
- A guardian angel descends to a person from heaven, which helps to fulfill the desires made by the birthday man.
- Everyone has heard that Birthday cannot be celebrated in advance. However, few people know that marking it later is also not recommended. Together with the guardian angel, the souls of the departed relatives descend to the earth, who help the guardian angel to realize what his friends and relatives wished the birthday man. Failing to hear the wishes on time, heavenly helpers may be offended and leave your dreams unfulfilled until next year.
The magic of numbers and signs for Birthday
- Few people do not know the signs. Birthday 40 years. It turns out that the sign that you can’t celebrate your holiday at the age of 40 is not based on simple superstition and concerns only men. This belief also has its roots in our distant ancestors, who subconsciously felt that it was impossible to mark this date. More recently, this superstition has been explained by astrologers. Forty years is a turning point in the life of a man, and it is in this year that the life program is re-laid, and the higher forces require peace of mind for such a complex and painstaking work.
- For the same reason, women should not be celebrated at 53 years old, and children - at 13 years old.
- It’s very interesting for the birthday that you can’t invite 9, 13, 18, 50, 90, 100 people. By inviting the guests to such a welcome, the birthday person can pay for several years of life, as these numbers have enormous magical power over people.
Signs about guests and rules for receiving gifts
- When compiling a list of guests whom you intend to invite to your holiday, think about whether all the invitees treat you well. Do not call those with whom you quarreled, or, for example, if you feel that a person does not wish you well. You should hear the sincere wishes of friends and relatives, and not ambiguous statements, seasoned with malicious laughs and whisperings.
- Do not take souvenirs from enemies and enemies as a gift .
- You can not accept as a gift bouquets with yellow flowers (to quarrel, to separation) or with an even number of flowers (to death soon).
- Do not take knives and forks, pearls, mirrors, scarves from guests (this applies to both handkerchiefs and headscarves). Accept such gifts - to tears, quarrels in the family, treason. Such an omen for a birthday!
- If you can’t refuse a gift, just take it, and say to yourself: “take what you brought.” If a person made a gift with evil intent, it will turn against him.
- If you are sure that this gift was made from a pure heart, out of ignorance, then simply give a person a purely symbolically small amount of money.
When preparing for the celebration, you must remember that the most important sign for a birthday is to be in a good mood on this day, then the whole year will be successful. Follow the signs, if you believe in them, but do not focus on observing them too much.
