There are things that seem very normal, but according to feng shui beliefs, borrowing or lending these things can be very unlucky. Therefore, you need to pay special attention and not lend them or let them affect your wealth, money, and luck.
If you meet someone with no shame asking for a loan, you should refuse.
Wallet, do not lend or give away
The wallet represents the financial fortune of a person, and it contains your belongings. Therefore, a wallet is a personal item that should not be handed to others, used by others, or given to others. According to feng shui, a wallet is an object that holds wealth and fortune. If you lend it, you are giving away your financial luck to someone else. It is also advisable to limit gifting wallets, even new ones. Giving a wallet as a gift is sensitive because it is related to wealth and giving away a wallet would waste your own money.
Mirror
A mirror is a personal object that serves as a bridge between good and evil. It absorbs both bad energy and good energy. So if you lend a mirror to others, it can absorb bad energy from them. Moreover, lending a mirror will take away your own positive energy. Additionally, when a mirror absorbs bad energy and returns to the owner, it can affect the owner’s health, causing sleep disturbances, fatigue, and hallucinations. Lending a mirror can also lead to conflicts between the owner and the borrower. Giving a mirror can also cause harm to the relationship between two people. Therefore, it is best not to lend or give away mirrors.
Watch
A watch is also a personal item that represents the timeline of your fortune and wealth. But many people borrow watches as fashion accessories. This is not good because a watch symbolizes the Supreme Ultimate and the continuous operation of time. Borrowing or giving away a watch means giving away your time and luck. When you give away or lend a watch, you are stagnating. Stagnation means not progressing, and it is bad in feng shui. Therefore, watches are things that should not be given or lent, as it symbolizes stopping your life.
Knife
A knife is a dangerous object with heavy negative energy in feng shui. Lending or giving away a knife creates cracks in the relationship between both parties. Moreover, a knife is a sharp and dangerous object that can cause accidents, so it should not be used as a gift or passed on. A knife can also become a weapon, so lending or giving it to others can indirectly create obstacles and bring harm. Therefore, only when someone comes to your home to borrow a knife to cut food on the spot is it acceptable to lend a knife, but it is still not recommended to lend it outside. A knife is a sharp and dangerous object, avoiding excessive circulation will prevent bad energy from entering and causing harm.
Lighter
Things that represent fire like lighters, stoves, fire lamps… are objects that hold the energy of the family. Fire is one of the 4 important elements of life and it is the element that constitutes a person. Therefore, do not borrow fire or ask for fire, especially at the beginning of the year. And you should not bring it to others just out of respect, nor should you give it away. Fire is the fortune of the family, it is an important part of a person’s life. Therefore, no one should borrow lighters, matchboxes, fire lamps… In the past, our ancestors were extremely cautious about this act of asking for fire.
In addition, when giving gifts, also pay attention to sensitive items that can be harmful, such as some poisonous plants, medicines that need to be supervised by a doctor, shoes because sometimes they don’t fit well…
