You can wear someone else's watch or not. Is it possible to wear someone else's watch: the meaning of this and other signs. What do the signs say if you lose or find a watch, women's or men's, can you wear it and other nuances of the question

Each person has a different sense of time, for some it rushes, while for other people it creeps along slowly. But clocks always count time the same way. Therefore, many signs and superstitions are associated with this mysterious object.

The most famous superstition is that watches should not be given as gifts. Although it would seem to be an excellent gift, in Eastern countries, presenting it means inflicting a mortal insult on a person. In the Celestial Empire, even the hieroglyph that means the word death is similar to that symbolizing time. Chinese sages believe that a given watch counts down the years of the life of the person who received it as a gift, thereby shortening it.

Giving a watch for a wedding is considered a bad omen. Such a gift will lead to the fact that family life will not work out. If you are not sure that those to whom the gift is intended are not superstitious, it is better not to buy a watch, so as not to accidentally spoil the young family’s holiday.

If you believe in superstitions, then it is better not to give your significant other a watch, as this will lead to separation. The clock will count the years lived together, while quickly approaching separation. In the same superstition there is such a version that by giving a watch, you can thereby bring trouble or even death in the family.

You should not give such a gift to older people, as they are more impressionable than young people and believe more in omens. One of them says that if the watch given to an old man stops, it means he will soon die.

If you nevertheless received a watch as a gift, then you need to give the giver a small coin for it, thereby turning the gift into a purchase.

The signs apply not only to working watches, but also to broken ones. They say that if a broken wall clock starts chiming, it means that soon there will be a dead person in the house. The same thing is prophesied by the broken glass on a wristwatch.

The famous clairvoyant Vanga said that clocks that stopped showed dead time and advised getting rid of them. They either need to be repaired or thrown away, otherwise the owner of the watch will live on dead time, and this threatens with illness, lack of career growth and lack of happiness in his personal life.

When buying a watch, you need to pay special attention to its shape. It is believed that a lady who chooses a square watch, with sharp corners, thereby puts herself in the place of a man, and will be forced to do all the men's work. But a man who chooses a round chronometer risks being left without money and work in the future, since round watches carry feminine energy.

But those who do not believe in omens have nothing to fear. Therefore, you need to believe exclusively in good omens, and then even such a gift as a watch will be a symbol of a happy life.

All signs are born of our tendency to think in metaphors. By similarity we transfer meaning from one object to another. People think: what happened to our watches will happen to fate, the course of life. Of course this is not true. And yet, there are plenty of mystical stories about a familiar household appliance with arrows; you need to treat it with cautious respect. It’s not easy sometimes with a watch, I confirm.

1. Buy a new watch - start life from scratch.

Rituals and rituals have been of great importance since ancient times, because they helped a person to retune to the desired wavelength and change. If you do such symbolic actions with faith and determination, then you can indeed influence your destiny. Let the new watch be the first step towards a wonderful future, the main thing is not to stop there! Look for new friends, new hobbies, new goals and objectives. Then it will definitely work!

2. I saw repetitions of numbers on an electronic watch - good luck.

This is a newfangled sign that arose with the invention of the electronic scoreboard. In general, numerology as a belief in the magic of numbers has thousands of years of roots. Our mothers and grandmothers looked for lucky repeats on travel tickets. Therefore, it is not surprising: if the numbers “double”, then you want to make a wish faster.

“And sometimes I come up with signs for myself to lift my spirits. The electronic clock shows 22:22 - good luck.”

3. Finding a watch in working condition is a good sign.

Time is a resource that cannot be restored and replenished. It is priceless because it is limited! Therefore, a ticking clock on your way is considered a good find. You should expect a happy occasion, good luck in business, luck and success.

4. A wristwatch is constantly late - to empty troubles and troubles. Real evidence suggests rather the opposite: the more we fuss and worry, the more likely it is that the watch will start to fail after its owner.

“I had situations where my wristwatch stopped working or started glitching. As soon as I started to think “I don’t want to live anymore,” “I’m tired,” “I’m tired of life,” “time is making me nervous,” they immediately switched off. Associated with my state of apathy, uselessness and “stopped” development. As soon as I set goals and got out of my sad state, everything returned to normal.”

“I noticed that my hours depended on my rhythm. Now I live every day, I don’t think about the future: the clock runs smoothly. When I'm in a hurry, fussing around, trying to bring some moment closer, the clock starts to run away. Definitely related to the human field. It's good when the clock is fast. When they fall behind, it means they are fixated on the past. “They’re in a hurry, which means there’s a lot of planning and action.”

5. Breaking a watch means trouble.

The defect of a watch extends throughout the life of its owners. Just as a thing has suffered, so can people suffer from the blows of fate. This makes a certain sense, she wrote in detail in the article about hidden tension, a subconscious signal, synchronicity.

6. Broken watches are not kept in the house. A clock that has stopped should not be kept at home.

They should be repaired or thrown away without regret. The metaphor is this: just as a damaged device has stopped doing its job, so the movement through the lives of the inhabitants of the apartment will stop, time will freeze for them. If you are sensitive to this kind of signs, then anxious expectations may arise. When there is a lot of old junk in an apartment, it really affects a person’s condition.

“I heard such a sign that you should not keep a broken watch at home. It is believed that time will “stand still” in the house.”

7. You can’t give a watch - you’ll break up with this person.

The most famous and controversial sign. It seems like a watch and a symbol of eternity, but the gift can be perceived as a hint - “your time in my life is running out.” It doesn’t matter anymore whether this prophecy comes true. There are many people who blame an unsuccessful gift for separation and even divorce. But they won’t tell you all the details. Perhaps even without the watch the relationship was not strong. It is difficult to harm strong feelings with little things, and for temporary and burdensome relationships, of course, the sign will work 100%.

8. You cannot give a watch as a gift for a wedding - the couple will get divorced.

I am skeptical about this sign. There is a clock in the kitchen that was given to me by my husband’s friend for our wedding. We have been living with my husband for 18 years now. But since there are many superstitious people, it is better to take into account signs when choosing a gift. Few people admit that they were selfish and a tyrant, making their spouse’s life unbearable, which is why they abandoned him. It’s more pleasant to blame everything on the malicious energy of an unsuccessful gift. And you may find yourself in hot hands. You will remain guilty of a “bad” gift.

There are special stories when a divorce or a serious breakdown in a relationship coincides with the breakdown of household appliances:

“When my ex left the family, all the clocks in the apartment stopped. And those that were given to us for our wedding were completely broken. But on top of that, all my equipment was broken.”

“It happened to me that one day an icon fell. We've been arguing a lot over the last year. And she took it as a sign: we need to break up! But she was afraid that she couldn’t cope with three children alone. Forgive me for everything. At the same time, the watch that was given to us for our wedding broke. One more hint. After a while I had to give up everything and move far, far away. I needed one, but I dragged him with me! There was no more life! It's a big deal for both me and the children. All signs are hints. If you decipher them correctly, you can avoid many misfortunes.”

9. The clock has fallen - to illness or death.

Death, especially premature and sudden death, is sometimes preceded by mystical signs. These are rare special cases. More often than not, the reasons for things falling off the wall are trivial: a rope broke due to age, a nail couldn’t stand it, children or pets were playing pranks. I read the following story on one of the forums. The man was annoyed by the chime of an expensive wall clock that his neighbor hung in his room. They beat so hard that the wall vibrated. He, unable to bear it, came to visit under some pretext and, left alone, made precise measurements: the location of the nail on which the clock hung. Returning home, I found this point on my side, applied a block and hit it with a sledgehammer so that the nail on the opposite side flew out. So reality can be much more unpredictable than any mysticism. But mysticism also happens.

“I didn’t really believe in omens. Therefore, when the clock fell from the wall and was shattered, hanging in this place for eight years, I did not want to believe in bad omens. But... The next day my brother passed away at the age of 34. Now I believe in signs of fate.”

Be careful with signs. A watch, like a mirror or a pectoral cross, has a sacred meaning, that is, a special sacred dimension. A symbol of the flow of life, their stopping is a metaphor for death. Therefore, as soon as something happens to them, anxiety arises, as these deep meanings are actualized. But there is also a household plan! An ordinary thing in the house, most often made in China, of average quality. In most cases, stories with watches are little things in life, devoid of any mysticism, but due to the anxiety and suspiciousness of many people, they can really ruin the mood and lead to trouble. Keep common sense, and then the true magic of existence will open before you.

Since the topic is too broad, I had to create a separate section, which contains amazing stories of eyewitnesses of strange coincidences or signs of fate.

They say that in former times life flowed measuredly and leisurely, and people did not know our current eternal rush. Not every hut had wall-mounted clocks with weights ticking; the hour was estimated “by roosters” and the sun; when asked about the time, it was quite possible to get the answer “after noon,” and it suited everyone. A personal watch on a chain or strap was more of a status item than an essential item. Therefore, not many people had them, they were rarely lost, and their loss or discovery was always regarded as a very important sign.

If you find a watch... Folk signs

Your finding in itself does not mean anything. It all depends on what condition it is in. For example, a whole clock, or even better, a ticking clock, is always a good omen, warning of new opportunities.

What people forget in the most unexpected places!

• You are advised to hurry up. “The clock is ticking, time is running out, but you still can’t decide to do something important! Hurry up, or it will be too late!” By the way, some interpret the discovery of a watch as a sign of the beginning of a favorable period in life. And the most optimistic beliefs directly promise: right now you are given a chance to achieve your plans. If you begin to act without delay, your plans will be crowned with success and your hopes will come true. A good incentive to get off the couch immediately!
• You forgot about a word given to someone, a decision made long ago, or another equally significant thing. Search your memory and try to understand what the ticking discovery reminds you of.
• Those who suffer from loneliness can straighten their shoulders and look to the future with hope, because the watch promises them a quick meeting with a soul mate. At a minimum, there will be a chance to find a close friend, and at a maximum, to meet the love of your life. This association must have been evoked in the imagination of our ancestors by the ancient “onion clocks” that opened into two halves. Since the find is “double”, it means that you will no longer be alone. And it doesn’t matter that today the probability of finding such a mechanism is equal to meeting a porcupine in a forest near Moscow. There is already a sign! Now go and guess how and why it arose...

A broken watch that cannot be put in order by simply changing the battery or tightening the mechanical winding predicts unpleasant things.

• If the find has no external damage, but stubbornly refuses to work, the signs say: “Time has stopped.” A period of stagnation begins in life and you will have to make remarkable efforts to move on. Any idea, be it organizing your own business or trying to start running in the morning, will be twice as difficult, but you cannot give up. Only by overcoming the resistance of circumstances will you achieve your goal.
• A watch with a crack in the crystal or chips in the case threatens family peace, career and peace of mind. It is believed that the same cracks should soon appear in one or another area of ​​your life. To counter a negative prediction, carefully weigh your actions, do not give free rein to your emotions and do not embark on adventures. Be calm and precise, moving your way as firmly as the hands of a clock.

Superstitious people are often afraid of valuable finds. And all because among our ancestors there was a strong belief in a curse that an evil sorcerer could cast on any thing. If you pick up an expensive watch or a ring with an emerald in the dust, you’ll end up with someone’s illnesses and hardships! No, it’s better to pass by...

What does it mean to find women's or men's clothes on the street?

A round dial is traditionally considered feminine

The ideal shape for women's watches is circle and oval. They are the ones who should help their owner gently resolve conflicts, build relationships and seek her feminine happiness. If the dial of your find turns out to be square or triangular, no matter how good the watch is, it is better to get rid of it. You risk putting a heap of problems on your fragile shoulders, which not every man can handle!

But the energy of the stronger sex has nothing against angles. But round, feminine dials on a strong male wrist are considered to be the culprits of lack of money and downtime in a career.

What should you do with the watch you find if it doesn’t suit your gender and you don’t want to argue with belief? It would be logical to offer to give it to another person, but even here it’s bad luck - the gifted watch symbolizes separation! Therefore, the most reasonable solution would be to sell the watch for a purely nominal fee. Then you will not frighten away luck with unnecessary self-interest, and your friend will rejoice at the successful acquisition.

Find simple or golden ones

...And again you are at a crossroads. On the one hand, the more expensive a chance find, the more pleasant events it promises. A high-quality watch from a well-known brand, especially on the go, speaks of previously hidden talents that you must discover in yourself. And in some cases they are interpreted as a sign that a person is destined to commit an act on a global scale and remain in history! Nice prediction, right?

On the other hand, an expensive mechanism in a gold or silver case that falls from someone’s careless hand on the street is considered an undesirable acquisition. Noble metals are ideal carriers of energy. And both bad and good. It would be okay if the previous owner of the watch was a cheerful and good-natured person! Then your unexpected acquisition will begin to radiate one positive attitude. Well, how did he have an evil disposition or suffer from depression? Things are bad here. How not to become infected with a pessimistic view of the world!

Can I wear my find?

The best thing to do would be to try to return the lost item to the owner, especially if it is valuable. The laws of balance of the Universe, karma and simple human decency advocate for this. Think for yourself, the find is unlikely to radically change your financial situation, and someone could wear it in memory of a departed relative or as a gift from a loved one. By appropriating it, you will gain nothing but an extra stain on your conscience. And if you believe in the “boomerang law”, according to which everything we do comes back to us, you can also add unpleasant events to your life! Therefore, it is not a sin to look for the owner.

Is your conscience clear and your soul calm? Bad omens have no power over you!

However, it is often not possible to do this, because no one scratches their home address on the clock, and lost and found offices now operate only in large entertainment centers. You can take the trouble to advertise in a newspaper about finding a valuable item, but if we are talking about a simple watch, this idea is unlikely to work. Therefore, most often the question arises: should I carry the find myself or try to get rid of it?

If the previous owner cannot be found, no one is stopping you from using the watch you found.. However, the signs strictly insist: any personal item that comes to you from another person must first be cleansed of alien energy. We'll tell you how to do this a little later.

What are the risks of losing your wristwatch?

• Since watches symbolize time, their loss is most often associated with a warning about uselessly wasted days and weeks. Perhaps you really have a prolonged period of apathy, and the sign doesn’t lie: it’s time to shake yourself up and take action. Perhaps you are doing an empty task that will bring neither benefit nor moral satisfaction. In this case, the loss of a watch is a reason to conduct an audit of life attitudes and values, and, if necessary, correct them. Or maybe you are doing exactly what you need to do, but slowly and carelessly?
• If the first point is clearly not about you, then losing your watch may be a sign of problems in the future. Let's say you face stagnation in your personal life or career, your creative potential will drop to zero, your personal development will stop... in other words, there will be complete calm. To prevent your life from turning into a musty swamp, do not allow yourself to succumb to depression. It will be more difficult to put things in order.
• Finally, the loss of a clock is interpreted as the end of one period - "this time has expired!" - and the beginning of a new one. According to beliefs, dramatic changes will occur in your life, and whether they will be good or bad, you will see for yourself.

Neutralization of negative energy

And now the promised recipe for getting rid of the unnecessary energy of the previous owner of the watch.

Ideally, any thing whose “reliability” you doubt should be immersed in running water for a few minutes so that the river or stream from the tap takes away everything unnecessary. The only pity is that after such manipulations, the question “is it possible to wear someone else’s watch” will be resolved by itself, and the find will have to be sent to a landfill. Therefore, it is better to choose a simpler method. For example:

• Keep the watch in a box with salt.
• Place them on a saucer next to the candle and let it burn to the end.
• Some people leave a few small coins at the location of the find, “paying” for the acquisition. Choose what you like best.

If you have carefully read the signs about the finding and loss of a watch, you have already noticed that they largely duplicate each other. And they say about the same thing: “don’t waste your time.” Of course, there is no need to follow their advice religiously. That’s why superstitions are called “vain faith,” because if taken too seriously, they will only add to your worries and mental doubts, but will not solve your problems. But if you perceive the loss of your favorite watch not as a reason for frustration, but see in it an incentive to move forward and achieve your goals, you will benefit from the sign. This means that the ancestors’ efforts were not in vain.

Numerous signs about watches foreshadow either the favor of Fortune or serious problems in the life of the owner. It is not surprising that upon discovering someone’s lost watch, a person wonders why he found this accessory.

And superstitious people are afraid to pick up valuable things found on the street - along with a shiny object, you can pick up an illness or other misfortune. Is it so? Popular beliefs suggest how to explain a find, depending on the type and condition of the item, and how to neutralize the negative.

Damaged or not working

If you happen to find a watch on the street, pay attention to its condition. An impeccable appearance and full functionality of the item is a good sign.

The situation is different when the find is damaged. Most likely, it was no coincidence that it ended up on the road; it was thrown out as unnecessary. In this case, the signs do not promise anything good:

If the watch has no external damage, but lags or its hands “refuse” to budge, changing the battery or manipulating the mechanical winding does not help - this sign of fate warns: “Time has stopped.”

The beginning of a period of stagnation in life requires the application of remarkable efforts for further movement.

Any plan will be implemented “with difficulty.” But if you decide to go on a diet or start your own business, don't despair and don't give up. After overcoming interfering circumstances or internal resistance of the body, you will definitely achieve your goal.

Cracked glass, chips on the body - these damages foreshadow problems in the family, at work, or loss of mental balance. According to superstitions about watches, cracks in an item will “migrate” into the life of the person who found it.

To prevent the negative consequences of a find, do not give in to emotions, carefully weigh your words, think through your actions, and do not take part in adventures.

Who found it, man or woman

Folk signs about watches are associated not only with the fact of the find and its condition, but also with who previously owned the accessory and who found it:

• A woman's watch was discovered by a representative of the fairer sex - a good sign. The found item will fill the life of the new owner with affection and tenderness. Happiness in the love of the previous owner will also accompany the lady who found the watch.
• A woman's watch was picked up by a man - failures in his personal life, lack of career growth, and lack of money await him.
• A man found a man's watch - the find can be safely used as a talisman that protects against troubles and misfortunes and brings good luck.
• If a woman picks up a man's watch lying on the road, the representative of the fairer sex will be subjected to the hardships of life and unbearable trials.

The shape of the dial plays an important role in interpreting the sign of a found watch. A circle or oval enhances feminine energy; a chronometer with a dial without pronounced angles will bring good luck to the lady, help smooth out conflicts, and build good relationships. A rectangular or square disc of a wristwatch will benefit a man (help him build a career, make bold decisions, and bring financial success).

Manufacturers sometimes produce watches without regard to signs. There are men's accessories with a round dial, and women's watches with a square dial. If you find a watch that is not gender appropriate (obviously or in form), you need to get rid of it.

If, at the same time, common sense does not allow you to throw away a beautiful, expensive, useful thing, and intuition tells you that it is not worth selling the find, so as not to frighten off great luck with petty gain, give the accessory to someone who can use it.

Do not forget to take a few coins in return for the gift in order to deceive the prohibition on giving a watch, which foreshadows the violator's separation from a loved one.

Can I wear my find?

Let's say a wristwatch that suits you was lying on the road - a wonderful sign of fate. You didn’t want to throw them away, so you decided to keep the item to attract good luck. But is it possible to wear the find?

According to legend, every thing is connected with its owner and receives energy from him. An item of personal use, such as a wrist chronometer, fully possesses this property. People are different. No one can guarantee that the previous owner of the found watch was a wonderful person who radiated only positivity.

But finding a broken watch is a bad omen; under no circumstances should you wear it, even if it looks attractive. Such an item is saturated with the troubles and failures of the previous owner. The discovery of a damaged chronometer itself is an omen of stagnation in business. Such a thing must be repaired or thrown away immediately to avoid apathy and loss of strength.

If you want to wear the chronometer of a loved one who has positive emotions towards you, signs do not prohibit this.

An inherited family watch will serve as a talisman for you. Of course, if the previous owner transferred them of his own free will.

What to do with the found watch?

First of all, you need to make an attempt to find the owner - this is what elementary human decency and the law of the universe about returning good things like a boomerang dictate. And simple common sense says the same thing: a find will not radically solve material problems, will not make one richer, and in the life of a person who has lost an item, it could play an important role, be a memory of ancestors or a loved one.

By appropriating someone else's item, you will not get rich, but will stain your conscience.

But a very expensive accessory, most likely, ended up on the road for a reason - they were deliberately thrown away to get rid of trouble. Magicians and esotericists claim that precious wristwatches are an excellent item for eliminating damage. Precious metals, like a sponge, absorb the energy of those who wear them. Therefore, such things can be used for their intended purpose only after prosperous people.

Neutralization of negative energy

It is most often impossible to return a watch found on the street to its owner. There are no identification marks or contact information of the owner on the accessory. What to do? You can’t raise your hand to throw away an object that fits all the parameters, but the signs associated with the watch haunt you.

The thing needs to be cleansed of foreign energy!

There are several ways to do this:

1. Running water is not a suitable method for clockwork.
2. Regular salt. A common food additive acts like a magnet to “pull out” all the negativity from a thing. After lying in a box of salt for some time, the watch will become energetically clean.
3. Fire. The flame will absorb all negative vibrations contained in things. Place the accessory next to a lit candle and let it burn to the end.
4. Ransom. Place a symbolic payment in the form of several coins at the location of the find.

You can choose the most suitable method for yourself, or perform all the recommended rituals.

And it’s better to fix a broken watch right away or throw it away, since there’s no point in bothering with cleaning a hopeless item. A damaged wrist chronometer, like a wall clock, will be a source of big trouble.

Watches: an important component of the life of a modern person

Watches are an important part of the life of every modern person. They help create a daily routine and complete all tasks on time. It is not surprising that there is a lot of talk and controversy surrounding this subject. For many years, people have believed in the signs that surround watches. People are also often interested in the question why can't there be a clock in the house?. No one doubts that this item is endowed with special magic. With the help of watches, people who mastered magic could completely change a person’s destiny. The watch was used in rituals of both dark and light magic. Dark sorcerers could use this item to cause the death of a person. Magicians using white magic could, on the contrary, extend a person’s life. Today, few people give watches to their loved ones. This is considered to be a bad omen.

Clocks and superstitions around them

It is not customary to give watches to loved ones and relatives. However, few modern people know the essence of this bad omen. In order to understand this, you need to turn to ancient traditions.

According to Western traditions, clock hands are perceived as sharp objects that should not be given to loved ones (needles, knives). Ancient people believed that such objects attracted evil spirits. Therefore, it was believed that a watch could become the subject of a quarrel with a loved one and lead to separation from him.

Why you can’t wear a stopped watch and other signs about watches

Many beliefs about watches can be found in the history of China. According to the traditions of this eastern country, the watch was considered an invitation to a funeral. Despite the fact that it is difficult for a modern person to understand this position, many refuse gifts in the form of watches. It is believed that the clock can count down the time until separation from a loved one. After all, if the clock stops, then soon a person will be separated from a loved one. According to another belief, the clock counts down the time until death. This opinion is listened to in Japan, where a watch brought as a gift is a hint of imminent death.

There are many traditions associated with watches in Slavic history. Our ancestors believed that giving a watch was a bad omen. It was believed that such a gift could lead to major disappointments in life, pain and suffering. In addition, many people believed that the clock brought the date of death closer. A watch given by a loved one leads to a quick separation.

Wall clocks: signs and ancient traditions

Wall clocks are an integral attribute of any apartment, private cottage or office. It is not surprising that many ancient signs are concentrated around this item. It is believed that if a clock falls from the wall, then trouble will soon come to the house. In many families, after the clock fell from the wall, truly terrible things happened, including the death of family members. This also explains Why can't the clock stay?

Many of our ancestors believed that a clock falling from a wall foreshadowed imminent death. You should be especially wary if the watch breaks when dropped. After all, the clock counts down the time until a person’s death. A wall clock is a direct reminder that nothing and no one in this world lasts forever. Having familiarized yourself with the known signs about this subject, you can see that they really could change the destinies of people. Therefore, you should approach the selection of these items very carefully. We must not forget that this is not just a stylish addition to the interior. This is a direct reminder that everything in the world is changing, and time does not stand still.
