Human life is shrouded in all sorts of signs. A knife on the table is one of the common negative characters. It is believed that cutting items must always be removed from the cabinet or drawer after use. Why is there such a rule?
The practical side of the issue
The sign about the knife on the table is not only mystical, but also practical. Do not leave cutting objects in sight for the following main reasons:
- You can get hurt. When doing household chores, you may not notice the blades and accidentally cut your hand.
- The appliance may fall into the hands of children. Kids are very curious, they all want to touch. But playing with a sharp knife is very dangerous.
- Household quarrel. In a fit of anger, people often beat dishes and clutch at everything at hand. Thus, a knife from a kitchen appliance can turn into a melee weapon.
Family scandals
According to popular belief, the knife on the table portends family scandals and quarrels. It is believed that a sharp kitchen appliance accumulates negative energy from the environment. If the knife lies on the table for several hours, and then the hostess begins to use it for cooking, the negative will be transmitted to food, and through it to households. As a result, people begin to get angry at each other and curse. As practice shows, in families where housewives keep order and put things in their place, quarrels occur much less often.
Troubles and breakdowns

The knife "remembers" everything
When working with a knife, you need to be not only careful. And this applies not only to movements, but also to thoughts and words. The fact is that the knife blade accumulates negative energy. Therefore, while cooking, try to think about the good. Never throw the knife on the table or on the floor (especially with screams and curses). Also try not to conduct negative conversations and do not swear when a sharp kitchen appliance is in your hands. Otherwise, the knife will “remember” everything to you, unexpectedly “throwing out” a stream of negative on you. This can be expressed in the fact that you cut yourself or run into everyday troubles.
How to protect yourself from negativity
Unfortunately, a person is sometimes inattentive. Even the most accurate housewife can leave a knife on the table in a hurry or because of some unexpectedness. So that this does not turn into troubles for you, provide your home with protection, namely:
- Having noticed your mistake, fumigate the house with cleansing herbs. In Russia, sage, lavender, pine and St. John's wort were used for this purpose. With smoldering branches, walk through all the rooms, paying attention to the corners. You can also include an aroma lamp with the essential oils of these plants.
- Wash the floor with salt water. This will help get rid of the negative.
- Hang a small oak branch above the kitchen entrance. Change the "amulet" as it dries.
- Let the cat into the house. Let her walk through the house, taking away the negative. Be sure to thank the animal with delicious food.
- Believers are recommended to sprinkle the house with holy water. You can also light a church candle and go around the room with it, moving clockwise.
