Perhaps no country in the world can boast such a love for omens and superstitions, such as Russia. Black cat ran across the road, suddenly broke the cup, Broken scissors, broken mirror. ... Total and count. And very many of us, quietly laughing at old superstitions, still spit over his left shoulder and whisper saving "pah-pah, touch wood." So, just in case. And even the most persistent, girls and women are beginning to blindly follow the signs when it comes to the most important event in their lives - the wedding.
Indeed, it is better to avoid trouble and tricky situations, armed with the knowledge of how to behave in a given situation. After all these signs there are a lot of years and generations of our mothers and grandmothers trusted them. Suppose now, in the era of technology development, most of the signs seem absurd and ridiculous, but that's a woman's desire to do everything for the sake of the marriage was strong and happy, it remained unchanged. That is why the wedding signs and superstitions have so much power over our hearts and minds.
Superstitions: ignorance or folk wisdom?
It would seem that everything is simple: a black cat - is not no demon in animal skins, bringing misery to people, and the usual cute animal. A broken mirror well, can not influence events in the future of your life (the mirror - in the bathroom, in trouble - at work .... What is the connection?). But, drat, people continue to believe in omens - in good and bad. And the right to grandparents were baptized but groaned, but after all, young people there too: believe and follow! And those who just signs up?
Frankly, say when there were signs and superstitions, it is hardly possible. Perhaps it happened when human civilization was born. People often really afraid and did not understand what is going on around the mysterious celestial bodies falling to the ground, which we now call comets were considered harbingers of wars and disasters. Babies with birthmarks and moles on his face - people marked the evil force. And what can we say about travelers, sailors, soldiers - those almost every event saw the signs, the ability to destroy or save their lives.
Of course, much of what our ancestors believed, and it was superstition. But if they are ridiculous and absurd, then why have survived, why are we talking about them? Probably because many signs still come true, and this experience is passed from generation to generation, until he came up to us. It is unlikely that our great-grandmothers, making sure that the sign does not work, they would be handed over to their daughters and granddaughters. Like it or not, as a grain of truth in many so-called superstitions exist.
Since ancient times people have noticed that certain acts or events preceding the wedding, pointed out how the marriage will be in the future. So maybe this is not superstition, but centuries of experience that can help us avoid some mistakes? We do not encourage you to believe in all the holy wedding omens and superstitions, many of them are really after many centuries seem meaningless and absurd. Moreover, if all of them unquestioningly follow, instead of joyful celebration you will experience real flour. But there are, and will take such beliefs, which is certainly worth considering.
