Signs about shoes. Why can't you wear someone else's shoes? Is it possible to wear someone else's shoes?

There are so many sayings about shoes! The mocking “Eh, he’s under the heel”, the romantic “Two boots are a pair”, the gloomy “Throw away the slippers”, “Sit in your galoshes”, “We don’t slurp cabbage soup with bast shoes”... Americans have an expression “Put on your father’s shoes”, similar to our “Go in the footsteps." The English say, “Walk a mile in my shoes,” when they want to encourage someone to understand their point of view. And it was no accident that the shoes received such attention! In the old days, shoes, boots and even slippers were considered a difficult object, directly related to a person’s vital forces, so they continue to make signs about them to this day.

Among esotericists, mystics and sorcerers of all kinds, a person’s personal belongings have always aroused increased interest. It was believed that an object that someone carries on themselves (or with them) day after day, over time absorbs the energy of its owner and becomes inextricably linked with him. So much so that it begins to foresee the sorrows and joys awaiting the owner, and persistently signal about them. The ability to “vange” was attributed to clothing, hats, and jewelry. But if you estimate the total number of signs, shoes will emerge as the undisputed leaders: for some reason, the predictions of rough traveling boots and elegant house slippers enjoyed increased confidence among our ancestors.

Torn, the sole burst, the heel fell off and other damage

Shoes that remained unharmed after their owner tripped on some obstacle and somersaulted in the road dust are a good sign. Wait for pleasant events! The right leg predicts great joy, the left leg predicts an interesting acquaintance. But twisting your ankle in new shoes means getting into trouble.

Water will clean everything!

Is it possible to throw away the old one: the opinion of popular wisdom

Under no circumstances did the ancestors want to keep worn out, torn and holey shoes in the house, because according to signs this would inevitably entail illnesses and losses. However, it was dangerous to throw away a personal item that had served faithfully for many months in the trash: how would you know who would pick it up and for what purpose would it be used? To get rid of old boots and slippers, there was a whole set of rituals:

They threw used shoes into a stove or fire in a vacant lot, saying: “Burn with fire, take everything with you.” And with this they killed not even two, but three birds with one stone! Firstly, the potentially dangerous item was no longer in danger of falling into the hands of the enemy. Secondly, the bread in such an oven should have been tasty and fluffy. And thirdly, by a strange coincidence, the evil spirits could not stand the smell of burning shoes and rushed out of the house. It must be true that the shoes of our ancestors were “spiritual”; at that time, feet were washed from time to time...
If it was not possible to make a fire, they put a crust of bread in the toe of a leaky shoe and could calmly throw it into a vacant lot with the words: “I am happy, and I am happy.”
Or they carefully washed their shoes with requests and slander for the water to wash off the owner’s spirit from the shoes: “It was mine, it’s now nobody’s.” But something that doesn’t belong to anyone is not scary to throw away.

Shoes or boots washed in clean water, if they looked decent, were not a sin to give to someone who needed them. For a long time in Rus' there was even a belief according to which the soul of a person who had not given anyone a single pair of shoes in his entire life had to wander barefoot in the next world.

Found shoes, no matter what condition they are in, symbolize success in business. You have to climb up the career ladder, and fate carefully provides a pair of shoes for this.
But you shouldn’t worry about losing your favorite slippers or boots. Along with them, some people or connections that have been weighing on you for a long time will leave your life.
You have yet to return to the house where you managed to forget your shoes - for example, you came to stay with a relative or friend for an overnight stay and left the replacement slippers you brought with you. And if we are talking about a loved one’s apartment, you can safely hope for a marriage proposal: it seems that here they are already ready to accept you as a full-fledged mistress. It’s a pity, there’s no point in deliberately forgetting your slippers; the sign won't work.

Confused, accidentally wearing different left or right shoes, someone else's shoes

It is better not to let strangers near your shoes at all. In the old days, even when someone began to wash someone else's shoes, the ancestors frowned with displeasure: a too helpful stranger would not steal the owner's vital energy! On the other hand, both a hundred years ago and earlier, there were bootblacks whom no one was afraid of. Apparently, laziness is a stronger thing than superstition.

How to put shoes in the house: with toes or heels towards the exit

Some interpreters call squeaky shoes a harbinger of illness, while others call it a sign of a bad conscience. If you have recently hurt someone, hurry up to ask for forgiveness and resolve the conflict. Moreover, you need to go to conclude a peace treaty wearing “talking” shoes, then you will certainly be forgiven.
But for a debutant actor, his first appearance on stage in “squeaky” boots predicts resounding success. And if, in the dressing room after the performance, the shoes that were thrown off in a hurry neatly lie down with the soles down, glory is not far off.

A shoe falling off a person's foot is considered an extremely bad omen. On the way, this event promises failure of the planned business; under normal circumstances, it means a serious threat to life.

Fishermen never wear their shoes slung over their shoulders, and jockeys never put their boots on the floor - this discourages luck.

Many people know the old Christmas custom of unmarried girls standing with their backs to the gate or front door and throwing a shoe over their shoulder. He will point with his toe to the exit, to be the fortune teller's bride this year. She will lay her heel to the door - the beauty will sit “in girls” for 12 whole months. If the shoe falls sideways towards the exit, you can’t count on a sweetheart to appear soon, but the girl won’t stay too long with her parents either, she will go on a trip or study far from her home.

Most often, superstitions do not specify what kind of shoes they are talking about. But in the treasury of folk wisdom you can find everything! There are also a couple of beliefs that relate only to slippers, boots or shoes.

About slippers: can they be given as gifts, kept under the bed, etc.

Some purposeful girls do a whole lot of preparatory work before the ritual. They “take” the slippers in their purse to exhibitions and movies so that the chosen one turns out to be a cultured person. They rub it with banknotes, so that precious pieces of paper rustle in the pocket of your loved one. They take them with them for walks along the river - maybe the new boyfriend will have a romantic note in his soul. At the same time, it is important to treat your innocent witchcraft simply, without strain and with a bit of humor. For those obsessed with the thought “I want to get married,” the ritual does not work.

We started talking about “marriage” at the right time, because it is difficult to find a more superstitious girl than the bride in front of the registry office. Even those who, on an ordinary day, without fear, would sweep an overturned salt shaker into the trash can and cross the road after a black cat, prefer not to violate numerous wedding signs - “what if it comes true”...

The bride's shoes should not have perforations: happiness will leak into the holes, and the bad energy of envious people will stick to the ground.
Walking down the aisle in sandals means spending your entire life “barefoot,” that is, in poverty.
Buckles on wedding shoes will fasten the baby's path and the birth will be difficult.
If the heel breaks, family life will be clumsy and scandalous, “limping” on both legs.
Losing your shoes on the way to the registry office means not knowing the peace of a married person, always fussing and fussing.
The groom's light shoes predict a short life for him, and boots indicate a tough temper: the young husband would not start beating his betrothed!
A coin placed under the bride’s right heel promises a happy life in marriage, and in the groom’s shoe predicts prosperity in the family.
Wedding shoes must be purchased on Friday. And don’t forget to walk around in them for an hour or two on the eve of the celebration, so that the shoes become symbolically worn, as required by custom.

And your feet will be more comfortable in your usual “true size” shoes.

The old “hussar” tradition, which requires the groom to drink sparkling champagne from the bride’s shoe, seems unhygienic and unpleasant to many in our time. Not only will the groom have to swallow who knows what, but the girl will also be forced to splash around in sticky shoes all day! But if you still decide to follow the custom, signs will predict adoration and reverent care on the part of your husband for a bride with bare feet, and the submission and love of his companion for a brave groom. One interpretation says that in such an original way, a man takes away the obstinate nature of the newlywed.

And that is not all! Did you know that not only a whole boot or slippers, but even part of a shoe is suitable for predictions? A heel, say, can give your forecast for the future. Or a lace.
Broke - expect trouble.
If it is wobbly or bent, your position is just as shaky. Take measures to avoid falling.

Stuck in the asphalt - you will receive a joyful surprise where you didn’t expect it.
Are they torn every now and then? This is for money!
Untied? Be careful, you are in danger.
On the contrary, they tie themselves in knots? If we are talking about the left leg, beware of gossip; about the right leg, expect praise. And some people regard every knot on a lace as a prediction of great luck and do not think about untangling it, even if it causes inconvenience.
You cannot put laced shoes away for storage - your feet will start to hurt.
You cannot put brown and black laces into shoes at the same time. Besides the fact that it looks strange, the black color symbolizes death, and the brown color symbolizes the land in which the owner of the surreal boots will find himself.

Surely the sun symbolizes the color orange?

In order for a long-absent family member to knock on the door as soon as possible, you should take his shoes, swap right and left twice, and then lace them tightly, saying: “Come back quickly, don’t spare any effort.”

A torn, broken or lost heel portends failure on the road and stagnation in business. Take a few days off and make a new action plan - the old one is no good.

In England, to this day they sing a rhyme: “If your toe is crooked, it means you will live in melancholy; if the bevel is on the side - become a bride in the juice; if you wipe it under your finger, you will lose wealth; If you wipe off your shoes at your heels, you will be rich.”

It is relatively easy to avoid the “coming true” of bad omens. We remove shoes that have made an unpleasant prediction as soon as possible and put them away on a shelf for at least a few days. We immediately take the broken one for repairs so as not to keep anything leaky or leaky in the house. Wash and throw away any that are unfit for wear. For slippers given out of ignorance, we give a small coin to turn the gift into a purchase. And most importantly, don’t focus on bad omens.

Carrie Bradshaw wasn't the only one who felt awe at the sight of a new pair of shoes. In our wardrobes you will find a lot of pumps, boots, sneakers, slates, shoes... And not only women's ones! And since you already have shoes, from time to time you will lose heels and heels, step into puddles and dog piles, twist your legs, limping home in delightful, but terribly uncomfortable shoes. And here you need to try not to perceive any random trouble as a verdict of fate, but mentally make a note: “be careful” and walk on, victoriously tapping your heels on the asphalt.

If you accidentally mix up shoes outside the home (in a fitness club, club, guests), or put on someone else’s shoes, this is a sign of unexpected joy and making new friends. When you exchange, do not forget to give the person some kind of present, even if it is an ordinary candy - and luck will be on your side.
Breaking a heel according to signs foreshadows the loss of money. Keep an eye on your shoes and take them to the workshop in a timely manner.

When giving shoes to your loved one, you need to be one that he or she will definitely like and fit. This is for a long-term relationship. But you shouldn’t give slippers.

Squeaky shoes indicate that the owner has offended someone. Remember and try to make peace with this person, and you need to confess to him in squeaky shoes.

If your laces get knotted, don't worry. This is good luck. If it does not bother you when walking, walk with it for at least a day - this way you are more likely to attract fortune.
Shoes should be placed correctly on the shelf, the right shoe should not cross the left one, they should not change places. An incorrect position predicts quarrels, troubles, and misunderstandings in the house.

General signs about shoes

Torn, the sole burst, the heel fell off and other damage

Worn boots received a personal monument

If the sole of your shoes suddenly bursts or breaks, remember if you recently interacted with an unpleasant person. Shoes, provided that the owner wears them for more than a week, are considered a strong talisman against the evil eye. And it doesn’t matter whether someone purposefully caused damage or you had to come into contact with an energy vampire who has a bad influence on all interlocutors indiscriminately. In any case, the blow aimed at the owner was taken by the shoes, for which they suffered.
A shoe suddenly “asking for porridge” testifies to the same thing: an enemy is sharpening its teeth on you, not disdaining the most vile and base tricks. Or the shoes arrived from China and fell apart on their own, which is much more common these days.
Did the sole crack just before you left the house? The path will be unsuccessful. It is better to put off all important matters on this day and relax a little.
Sometimes pets actively interfere in the prediction process. Thus, a cat that marks its owner’s shoes warns of the arrival of distant relatives, and a dog that thoroughly chews a shoe predicts a big family scandal. True, you should not discount another interpretation: you are a very gentle and kind person, and the furry crew brazenly takes advantage of this and does whatever they want in your house.
Have you accidentally splashed water on your shoes? It seems that Fortune has heard your secret dreams and is preparing a meeting with a person who has not been out of your head for several days now. Everything is logical: without clean shoes you can’t impress your chosen one.

Shoes that remained unharmed after their owner tripped on some obstacle and somersaulted in the road dust are a good sign. Wait for pleasant events! The right leg predicts great joy, the left leg predicts an interesting acquaintance. But twisting your ankle in new shoes means getting into trouble.

Water will clean everything!

For a long time in Rus' there was even a belief according to which the soul of a person who had not given anyone a single pair of shoes in his entire life had to wander barefoot in the next world.

Find, lose or forget

Found shoes, no matter what condition they are in, symbolize success in business. You have to climb up the career ladder, and fate carefully provides a pair of shoes for this.
But you shouldn’t worry about losing your favorite slippers or boots. Along with them, some people or connections that have been weighing on you for a long time will leave your life.
You have yet to return to the house where you managed to forget your shoes - for example, you came to stay with a relative or friend for an overnight stay and left the replacement slippers you brought with you. And if we are talking about a loved one’s apartment, you can safely hope for a marriage proposal: it seems that here they are already ready to accept you as a full-fledged mistress. It’s a pity, there’s no point in deliberately forgetting your slippers; the sign won't work.

Confused, accidentally wearing different left or right shoes, someone else's shoes

You can try it on, but you can’t wear it

Shoes mixed up on a shelf are a warning to be more lenient towards your loved ones. You can ruin your relationship for a long time because of a stupid quarrel, and such mistakes will be difficult to correct.
If in a hurry you happen to pull your right shoe onto your left foot and vice versa, take off your shoes and put this pair aside. Leaving the house in it means getting into trouble that will damage your good name. By the way, superstitions advise starting to put on your shoes with your left foot: for some reason this should protect you from minor troubles in life in general and toothache in particular.
In a hurry, did you put on shoes from two different pairs? Rejoice! They say that this event will lead to prosperity and the fulfillment of a cherished desire.
It’s no less pleasant to accidentally put on someone else’s shoe - say, in the common locker room at the pool or at a party. Don’t be embarrassed, but rather offer the owner or mistress of the accidentally stolen shoe a chocolate or any other small gift, and you can count on fate’s encouragement in the form of a new useful acquaintance, a romantic meeting or good news.
However, superstitions strictly prohibit wearing someone else’s shoes on purpose. Who can guarantee that someone else's energy that has permeated the slippers will not cause harm? If you don’t believe in omens, believe in the fungus, from which no one is safe, and still follow the advice of your ancestors. An exception can be made only for the bride on her wedding day: if among your friends there is one who is happily married, a borrowed pair of shoes from her will lead you straight to family happiness. Especially if you sincerely believe in it.
Under no circumstances should you wear the shoes of a dead person: it is believed that they will help the new owner of the shoes trample the path to their own death.

It is better not to let strangers near your shoes at all. In the old days, even when someone began to wash someone else's shoes, the ancestors frowned with displeasure: a too helpful stranger would not steal the owner's vital energy! On the other hand, both a hundred years ago and earlier, there were bootblacks whom no one was afraid of. Apparently, laziness is a stronger thing than superstition.

How to put shoes in the house: with toes or heels towards the exit

Order in the hallway - peace in the house

Do not place shoes with their toes next to the front door if you do not want to escort its owner out of the apartment. And if one of the household members has the habit of taking off his shoes, turning around to face the exit, you should be concerned about his state of mind. Psychologists believe that this is what a person does who feels uncomfortable at home and subconsciously dreams of breaking free.
Shoes falling crosswise are also not a good sign. She will emit negative energy, which you, of course, do not need.
But shoes or boots placed in the shape of the letter T, according to legend, relieve nightmares and cramps. If you make this simple composition from slippers and hide it under the bed, you can see your betrothed in a dream. Why not check the sign in practice, it’s a simple matter?
Shoes with their soles turned upside down towards the ceiling also promote peace of mind. Everywhere except Japan. Here, on the contrary, they are considered a harbinger of a family quarrel.
There is also such an unexpected recipe: if you are bothered by a barking dog in the yard at night, turn one of your house slippers or shoes upside down, and the “empty mind” will calm down. I wonder how many have tried to do this in practice?
You cannot place shoes on a stool or table, this promises the owner trouble, illness and death, and certainly from the noose. The method of association must have worked here, because climbing on a table with shoes on would never occur to anyone except a suicide.
However, the gloomy omen does not apply to women. The extravagant lady who left her shoes in such an unusual place is promised an early pregnancy. And if the woman herself does not plan to have offspring, the omen passes forward to her closest relative.

If men's or women's shoes squeak

Some interpreters call squeaky shoes a harbinger of illness, while others call it a sign of a bad conscience. If you have recently hurt someone, hurry up to ask for forgiveness and resolve the conflict. Moreover, you need to go to conclude a peace treaty wearing “talking” shoes, then you will certainly be forgiven.
But for a debutant actor, his first appearance on stage in “squeaky” boots predicts resounding success. And if, in the dressing room after the performance, the shoes that were thrown off in a hurry neatly lie down with the soles down, glory is not far off.

If it fell off a girl’s or a man’s leg

A shoe falling off a person's foot is considered an extremely bad omen. On the way, this event promises failure of the planned business; under normal circumstances, it means a serious threat to life.

"Professional" signs

Fishermen never wear their shoes slung over their shoulders, and jockeys never put their boots on the floor - this discourages luck.

Other about new and old

Many people know the old Christmas custom of unmarried girls standing with their backs to the gate or front door and throwing a shoe over their shoulder. He will point with his toe to the exit, to be the fortune teller's bride this year. She will lay her heel to the door - the beauty will sit “in girls” for 12 whole months.
