The ancient pagan tradition of giving gifts on holidays, for an anniversary, as a sign of love and friendship, led to the emergence of many signs, legends and mystical rites. In the press and on the Internet you can find voluminous scientific works and even dissertations on the impact of gifts on fate, health and human life. Especially a lot of heated debate is conducted by pundits around ordinary watches.

It is always a pleasure to make a gift, and paying tribute to the ancient pagan tradition, on the eve of an anniversary or a solemn event in the life of a loved one, each of us goes to the store to buy a present for the holiday. As a guideline, usually used information obtained during a veiled conversation with the hero of the day on the topic of a gift or openly expressed wishes.
Even after a frank conversation about a birthday present, things are not so simple, especially if the hero of the day wanted to receive a watch as a present. The problem is not finding the right model at an affordable price. A lot of bad superstitions and signs will be associated with the “ticking gift”.
When studying logic, students are often offered the following task to build a synthetic chain of statements: “A clock and a calendar measure time intervals. Man cannot change the course of time by a will. Human life is the time span from life to death. How to extend a person’s life? ”
Almost all the signs and superstitions about watches are built on the theses that are part of this task.The most unpleasant moment is that the anniversary watch is usually presented to loved ones or loved ones with sincere wishes for happiness and long life, completely not counting on the opposite effect.
The Internet plays a big role in inflating hysteria around the negative energy of watches. By typing in the search engine Google the query “superstition gift clock”, you can “dig up” about half a million links confirming the worst assumptions. The home-grown followers of blind Vanga and modern "certified psychics" in their posts on the Internet pages offer for a lot of money a variety of methods to combat bad energy coming from "modern chronometers" and methods of protecting the aura for men and women.
Psychics and healers advise men:
- to neutralize the harmful field, buy and constantly wear a magnetic or silver bracelet on your hand;
- put a glass of water on the table next to the chronometer;
- cover the ticking gift with a white cloth at night;
- to take out all the hours at night, except for the alarm clock, from the living room to the kitchen;
- buy a piece of amber or rock crystal and put it next to the clock;
- burn in the room in which there is a gift, incense or saturate the air with ozone;
- periodically invite the clergyman to conduct rituals in the clock room.
Wise counselors offer women:
- buy jewelry with a "cat's eye", amber or rock crystal and constantly wear around your neck;
- to conduct a ritual with water and wax candles to "cleanse" the bad gift energy;
- place a round mirror under the clock on the table.
Relatives of the hero of the day are recommended to protect against the undesirable effects of a bad aura put incense on each windowsill, several pine or spruce branches, paper or cotton wool with a few drops of fir oil, eucalyptus oil or a round mirror. Gift watches for your other half (wife or husband) should be chosen taking into account personal preferences and taste. Emphasize the depth of feelings and respect engraved congratulations on the case or monogram.
If the clock is an unexpected birthday present, you should not panic. Graduated magicians are advised not to sell or give this gift to acquaintances - such behavior can bring about even greater troubles. According to their advice, just hold the watch for three days under a plastic box, then rinse the box with soap and water.
Signs and superstitions
Each of us has been familiar with classical superstitions since early childhood:
- hearing the clock in an empty room is a sign of near death;
- nodules on a handkerchief improve memory;
- toss a coin into the sea - for good luck;
- a black cat crossed the road - to failure;
- "Monday is a hard day";
- “The thirteenth number is a fatal number”;
- lucky ticket number - luck on this day at work;
- a woman with an empty bucket - to poverty and misery;
- the stolen gift of the second half - to parting.
and many others.
The mechanism of influence of superstitions on humans
The topic of the relationship of watches with negative energy, which is actively discussed on the Internet, imperceptibly penetrates our consciousness and gradually suppresses logical thinking and common sense, replacing concepts at the mention of watches. Instead of sound logic and attempts to find out the true state of things, a person begins to blindly believe in the received installation: “A gift watch is the cause of failures in one’s personal life and a deterioration in health.”
In the presence of a number of somatic diseases (hypertension, diabetes, vascular spasms, a previous heart attack or stroke) with the mere thought of such a gift, in light of predictions and hysteria swelling around the clock, a sharp deterioration in health can occur. Psychologists say that most superstitions "work" at the subconscious level on the principle of self-hypnosis. According to the collected statistics, in different age groups (from 18 to 60 years) suggestibility of mentally healthy people is about 75%.
This figure was obtained during the experiment, for which volunteers of different ages were invited. Each subject was given a plumb bob in his right hand (a thread with a metal ball attached at the end weighing about 50 grams) and asked to hold it in a relaxed hand in a suspended state.
All subjects were in clear consciousness, without diving into a hypnotic trance. To exclude a subjective moment during the experiment, the subjects were not allowed to look at the thread with a suspended load and talk. At the very beginning of the experiment, the psychologist from the next room through the open door asked the question "Who feels that the load on the thread begins to rotate in a circle?". After that, in about 70% of the test subjects, the ball began to make subtle circular movements around the vertical axis. The subjects themselves claimed that at that moment they felt like some unknown force controlled their hand.
The experiment was repeatedly carried out in different countries and different age groups. He fully confirmed the suggestive effect of signs and superstitions on the human psyche.
Thoughts are material: how to get around evil rock
NLP specialists use self-hypnosis when coding for success. Having received a speech orientation on the development and improvement of personality during a suggestion session without hypnotic trance, the human brain begins to work more productively and makes fewer logical errors in the process of logical analysis and prediction of complex and complicated life situations. Processing of incoming information becomes systematic, consistent and accurate.
The empirical analysis of complex situations is improved (when it is impossible to first obtain complete information for reflection). The number of hasty and rash decisions is drastically reduced - a person becomes successful in work and in his personal life.
From the foregoing it follows: in most cases, the “black streak” in life is not the result of the influence of mystical forces, a conspiracy or the evil eye. Everything is simple enough - in order to circumvent the evil rock and failure you should never think about an unfavorable outcome. In this case, failures in exams and unsuccessful interviews will always be bypassed.
Having woken up in the morning before a responsible interview, a difficult exam or the first working day in a new place, you need to relax, look at the clear sky, look for familiar images and figures among the clouds, take a walk in the park or public garden. You can not focus on a stopped alarm clock, bad forebodings and dreams on the eve, suddenly torn shoelaces or lack of hot water supply; it is impossible to attach particular importance to trifles and accidents.
Knowledge of the interpretation of signs and superstitions does not really mean complete control over what is happening around the events. Due to the substitution of concepts in the interpretation of superstitions and omens, a synthetic feeling of “master of the situation” is created in the mind, leading to bravado and loss of control over the situation.
When choosing a watch for a gift to your beloved girl, you should consider one subtle nuance - women love with eyes and ears. Most often, girls do not pay attention to the price of the gift, the main thing for them is the form and content. It must be remembered that accepting a gift, they always notice and subconsciously analyze small and insignificant at first glance details, attaching great importance to them. Sensitive and easily injured young girls, in search of psychological protection from future difficult life situations, guess at Tarot cards, coffee grounds, wax, study dream books, study superstitions and signs.
Unlike women, most men have an analytical mindset - signs and predictions are of little interest to them. Male emotions and feelings are always very well hidden and almost invisible in the process of communication.
In a situation with predictions and signs that relate to hours, the blind faith of people with higher education in ancient pagan myths and the frank delirium of psychics obsessed with the desire to breed a client for money at all costs, psychologists are sincerely surprised.
Variety of presents
There is a huge variety of gift chronometer models:
- Floor with weights. A massive polished case, copper weights and a booming battle reminiscent of the New Year’s Clock every hour emphasize the solidity and seriousness of the owner. They give such massive gifts, as a rule, to retired leaders and veterans.

How to present a watch?
Given the adverse superstitious interpretations of a watch as a gift Some points must be observed:
- if a person who is presented with a gift believes in signs or is fond of occultism, ask him for a coin in return for the chronometer, so it turns out that he bought a watch for a meager pay;
- youth can be presented with a watch with a built-in radio, video projector, thermometer, hygrometer or barometer.
- lovers of antiquity will enjoy the massive grandfather clock with a fight.
- It is best for the hero of the day to present a watch with a sign on which the engraver wrote warm and gentle congratulations and wishes.
Science Against Superstition
The main computer of the human body (its brain) and the most complex electromagnetic and biochemical processes that occur in it in the process of storing and processing information, still remain a mystery for seven seals.
The mechanism of influence revealed by science will take and superstition is realized through suggestive action on a person, self-hypnosis and self-hypnosis. These conclusions follow from the theory of the outstanding physiologist Ivan Petrovich Pavlov. They have nothing to do with signs, superstitions, occultism, fields unknown to science and the action of supernatural powers.
The average coincidence will take and superstition with real events does not exceed 0.1%, which indicates the absence of a connection between the studied phenomena. Despite the enormous budgetary costs, no conclusive evidence has yet been found that can unequivocally confirm or refute the connection between superstitions and superstitions with current events.The exception is human exposure to events under the influence of suggestive or hypnotic suggestion.
