There are certain customs and practices that may seem strange, but are worth trying. This is the case of the pins under the doormat. What is the reason for this unusual trick? What does it have to do with doing it before going on vacation?
Never forget to put 2 pins under the doormat before going on vacation
The doormat is the carpet in front of the door of the house. Although we usually use pins to sew or mend torn clothes, this time we are going to put the pins under the doormat. More specifically, we are going to shape them into an X before putting them under the mat.
It is a tradition or, more accurately, a belief that has no scientific basis. However, many people believe it. It is a way to ward off bad luck. You don’t have to believe it, but it’s worth a try.
This gesture is believed to block any negative energy that may enter the house. The pin not only protects the house, but also its inhabitants.
Unfortunately, very few people trust this type of custom. However, as long as the gesture doesn’t harm anyone and doesn’t cost anything, why not try it?
