Folk omens sometimes seem funny, but absolutely everyone believes in them, and from early childhood. Even the most inveterate skeptics will sometimes sometimes express something that betrays their trust in signs.
For example, if someone’s nose is itching, what will others say to this person? Will they express concern that a lot of dust has accumulated in the room, or will they assume that a runny nose will appear soon? Not at all. They will say that we should expect a merry feast or a fight, and possibly both of them at the same time. And paradoxically, in most cases this is what happens.
A lot of superstitions are accepted by the people. They did not appear from scratch; each omen is based on observations and juxtaposition of coincidences that happened in life. Accordingly, one must respect superstitions with respect. It is not necessary to believe in them at all, but it is worth listening to folk wisdom periodically.
What is the thumb of the left hand connected with?
Folk superstitions associated with itching at one point or another in the body, as a rule, find confirmation in various esoteric practices. At the same time, without even knowing the content of signs, but imagining with what energy a part of the body is connected, one can logically come to conclusions that completely coincide in meaning with superstition.
For example, why does the thumb of the left hand itch? The left hand is a part of the human body that is associated with the energy of acquiring something, replenishing it. The thumb is the location of the energy point associated with luck and human activity. Accordingly, it is logical to assume that the itching that spontaneously arises in it is a foreshadow of success in work, recognition of professional merit, or the onset of a success streak in life.
What are the signs?
In general, what the thumb is scratched on the left hand is a good sign. The left hand in popular superstitions symbolizes the receipt of something, and the right hand, on the contrary, deprivation, bestowal.
Of course, the exact meaning of what itching portends depends on several factors. What is important for the interpretation is exactly which place itches. Also important is the one whose finger itches - for men and women, signs promise different events.
What omen promises women?
If the representative of the fair sex itches the pillow of the thumb of her left hand, the sign promises her attention from a close man or a fan.
What exactly this attention will be, one can only speculate. This can be a valuable gift, a romantic dinner or a joint visit to the cinema. If a woman is married, then such an itch promises an unexpected receipt by a spouse of a cash bonus, which he will give to his wife.
No doubt, in interpreting superstition it is necessary to take into account the age and social status of women, as well as her lifestyle. If the finger was combed by a representative of the weaker sex, who gives most of the time to work and is not particularly interested in household chores, then the interpretation of signs should be sought among the general list of values.
If a finger itches on a young girl, then a popular sign promises her a quick meeting with an interesting young man and the development of a relationship with him. In the event that the itch touched the ring finger of the girl who is meeting with the young man, you need to wait for the marriage proposal, prepare for the engagement and for the wedding.
Why does the base of the finger itch?
If the base of the thumb of the left hand is scratched, then we should expect a meeting with a person whose communication has long ceased. It can be a “forgotten” school friend or a former work colleague, neighbor or just a longtime friend.
In any case, the meeting will be very pleasant and enrich the person with new knowledge, ideas, life experience. It is possible that it will develop into strong business cooperation or friendship.
Why does the fingertip at the nail itch?
Why does the thumb itch on the left hand in the area of the nail? This is a very peculiar itch, which may not be associated with energy flows. Such sensations often signal the development of a fungal infection. Therefore, if the desire to scratch a finger under the nail plate or near it often arises, it makes sense to visit the doctor’s office.
If everything is in order with health, then it is worth listening to what is said in folk signs. Why does the thumb of the left hand itch in the area of the nail? By unexpected acquaintances, which will bring diversity to life, they will open new horizons for a person and will present many sharp, previously unknown sensations and vivid emotions.
Why is the fingertip scratched?
If the small pillow of the thumb of the left hand is scratched, then, according to popular beliefs, one should expect good luck in any of the life spheres. Signs promise success in what a person is busy in this segment of life, in what is important for him at the moment.
This means that the student itching in the fingertip promises a successful exam, as well as the student. For an adult - good luck in the professional field, demand and approval from colleagues and superiors.
Also, to which the thumb of the left hand itches, the sign connects with luck in gambling. Playing cards or attending a hippodrome is not necessary at all. But, for example, it makes sense to purchase a lottery ticket on the day the itching arose.
Why does a finger itch without a specific localization of itching?
Of course, it also happens that the finger simply itches and there is no way to determine in which part of it the itch is more pronounced. In this case, according to popular superstitions, one should expect a combination of all that omens promise.
Accordingly, why is the thumb of the left hand scratched? To success in all endeavors, replenishment in finances, gifts and pleasant meetings, as well as to great luck in the lottery or significant professional achievements.
You can understand what exactly needs to be experienced if you take into account current life priorities. For example, it is unlikely for a middle-school student to predict the increase in cash income or successful career growth. In the same way, a housewife should not expect successful exams, of course, if a woman does not attend any courses. In other words, the interpretation of superstition should be correlated with the realities of life, and not be taken separately from the surrounding circumstances.
Is it possible to strengthen the energy message for success in work?
Each person knows that in order for a sign to not come true, certain actions must be performed. For example, if you had a bad dream, immediately after waking up you should look out the window or tell someone the content of the dream. If the nose itches, then you need to ask someone to click on it in order to take away from yourself both participation in a fun feast, and the danger of a fight.
But are there rituals or traditions that help not to avoid the event predicted by the sign, but, on the contrary, to bring it closer? After all, if superstition has a good interpretation, then I want it to be realized as soon as possible.
What the thumb of the left hand is scratching can be brought closer if you use a professional tool or something related to direct occupation. What does this mean? Only that the finger needs to be scratched with the help of what is regularly used in work. For example, for a web designer, this can be a computer mouse, and for a cook, a ladle or kitchen knife.
Lure success and good luck in the work of the artist will help the brush or pencil, and a car mechanic can scratch the itchy finger with a wrench. The student or schoolchild will be helped by the roots of textbooks, notebooks or stationery.
How to bring a meeting with an old friend? How to get a gift as soon as possible?
But what if the sign promises a meeting with an old but forgotten friend? It is unlikely that professional tools will help in this situation. If the base of the finger begins to itch, the omen can be “activated” in a simple way. It is necessary to ask someone to scratch the itchy place. Many superstitions use this method to approximate the predicted sign, or, conversely, to rid themselves of the event promised by the energy message.
If you want to receive a gift, you need to scratch your finger with any thing or decoration previously received as a presentation. That is, the old present will attract a new gift. If the middle of the palm is scratched, which, according to popular signs, portends the receipt of money, then the itching must be eliminated with coins or paper notes. However, you need to use large denomination banknotes for this, because a trifle will attract insignificant financial income.
