With the mindset of “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure,” many people have the habit of giving their friends, colleagues, and loved ones items that are no longer used. However, not every item in the house can be given away. In fact, some items can bring bad luck or unwanted consequences to the recipient. Therefore, it is important to carefully consider before giving away items to avoid affecting the relationship between both parties.
Watches
Watches are not just fashion accessories, they also have various functions such as telling time and serving as alarms. They can also be used as gifts for friends and loved ones on important occasions or anniversaries.
However, it is not advisable to give watches to others or to wear old watches around people. In Chinese, the phrase “giving a watch” sounds similar to “sending off someone for the last time.” Therefore, giving a watch to someone, whether it is old or new, is considered taboo.
Watches, although beautiful, should not be given to others.
Fish Tanks
Many people have a hobby of keeping fish or other aquatic animals at home for decoration and attracting good luck. Therefore, when you no longer want to keep fish, it is not advisable to casually give away fish tanks to others. In feng shui, fish tanks are seen as “wealth attractors” that help drive away bad luck, attract wealth, and bring luck into the house. Therefore, it is not recommended to give or receive fish tanks to avoid losing luck.
In addition, the shape, size, quantity, and color of fish can greatly affect the feng shui of a house. So when giving it to others, it’s possible that your fish tank may not be suitable for the recipient’s destiny, and it may bring them into a state of “difficulty”.
Avoid giving your old fish tank to others to avoid transferring your own luck.
Sharp Objects
In feng shui, sharp objects such as scissors, knives, swords, saws, etc., carry negative energy and natural forces. So when giving them to others, they can cause the recipient to encounter many unfortunate events, financial loss, career decline, or countless family troubles.
Especially, according to the beliefs of many people, giving sharp objects to others, whether they are new or old, signifies “cutting off” the relationship between you and the recipient.
Avoid giving sharp objects to others as it can “cut off” the good relationship you have.
Antiques
Although there are many beautiful and valuable antiques, they are not suitable gifts for others. The reason behind this is that not every antique is inherited personally, and many items have unknown origins.
In such cases, these items may have absorbed negative energy without our knowledge. If you give them to friends, loved ones, or colleagues, you will subject them to bad luck and difficulties. In addition, giving or receiving antiques with unknown provenance can lead to many unnecessary troubles, so you should avoid giving or receiving antiques from others.
