2023-12-31 21:00:00, Kuriozitete CNA

Surely many of us have at least once followed superstitions such as kisses exchanged under the tree at 00:00 or red underwear for Christmas. All this, to start the New Year well.

It is said that what you do during the first 24 hours of the new year will write your fate for the rest of the year.

You should take some precautions to protect yourself from evil spirits and welcome good luck into your home.

But what should you do?

The party doesn't stop, in many cultures it is believed that noise scares away evil spirits, so in some countries church bells ring at midnight. So it is recommended to party until the last moment, making a lot of noise!

Don't throw anything out of the house because it will bring bad luck throughout the year. Some people even don't even take out the garbage from the house on the first day of the year because it is said to drive away good luck.

Open Doors - When midnight hits, open all the doors of your home to leave the old year behind and welcome the new year.

Give objects - Giving objects in the shape of an elephant, pig or sheep is believed to bring good luck to the recipient.

Pay off debts - You don't have to start the year in debt. Thus you will be destined to be unlucky throughout the year.

First person - It is believed that the first person who enters your home in the new year will have a great influence on your life that year.

No washing – No hair, no clothes, no dishes. You have to wait until the second day so as not to erase the good feelings.

Eat grapes and lentils and avoid chicken. If you consume 12 grapes at midnight and lentil soup on the first day, you will attract good luck for the coming year. But if you eat turkey and chicken, you attract poverty because they dig the ground to find food.

Kiss at midnight – This will bring you closer to your partner throughout the year.

Jump outside - It is believed that if you jump outside and around a tree on the night of the 31st you will have good luck in love and prosperity for the next 364 days./ CNA
