Since ancient times, people have attached great importance to the days of the week. Each day was dedicated to a specific occupation or business. And in the modern world we still follow these rules and signs. Monday is a hard day, and Saturday, for many, is a day of general cleaning. Why is it that the days of the week have their own purpose? Let's look at the signs for every day.
Monday is a day on which our ancestors did not start anything new. This day is hard. There was a belief that it was on Monday that the evil spirits were especially active. On that day, it was dangerous to guess and cut hair. Also on Monday it was impossible to lend money. And those who go on a journey on this day run the risk of inviting evil spirits.
Many signs are associated with this day of the week:
- Guests arrived on Monday - expect guests now every day all week.
- If you sneeze - this is for a gift or good news.
- If you start a new business on Monday, it will go awry.
- As Monday goes, so does the whole week.
